Comments on: Hagel may seek GOP nomination, wonders aloud about impeaching Bush

By: Hot Air » Blog Archive » Edsall: Attack on Mitt is McCain camp’s death rattle

Thu, 14 Jun 2007 13:25:01 +0000

[...] Neither Ace nor Kaus nor I understand why he persists in smacking Romney. A McCain pal told the Hill that the campaign is “in the doldrums,” which might explain the attack but doesn’t explain why he’s attacking the guy in fourth place instead of the Rockefeller Republican who’s leading nationally. Back in the days Before Fred I theorized that he and Rudy would each hammer Mitt to drive him out so that neither one had to face a social con head-on for the nomination. With Fred running, though, that theory explodes: even if they did get rid of Mitt, his supporters would bounce to Thompson. [...]

This race shows how out of touch these idiots are with the American people. Most think all of the frontrunners are as valuable as an Americans resume on Bill Gates’ desk!

I have an appropriate campaign slogan for Hagel:

UP CHUCK IN 2008!

His loyalty is about as visible as his intelligence.

Is it me or does Hagel have the look of a raging alcoholic? I recall last summer he was functionally pro Hezbollah.

I would crawl over the ground on my bare knees over broken glass and vote for Hillary before I would ever vote for the Republican McGovernite Chuck Hagel.

If Hagel got the nod (fat chance) it would just prove we are now a one party system.

He and a few more need to be drummed out of the party, I think. Return it to its Reagan Roots that propelled it ot power.

Yeah, been there done that in 1992. Perot skimmed off enough RINO’s (and Bush’s no new taxes fiasco) and we got 8 years of slick willie and we are in danger of getting at least 4 of the hildebeast.

Notice how, just like these people who slammed Ann Coulter, this semi-psuedo-conservative (hagel) SOUNDS EXACTLY like the liberals. He carries their PC water with a big sh1t eating grin on his face.

I wonder how long the “front runners” will slide along before they realize that without support from the “border conservatives” its most likely a waste of time and money?

Tell us how you really feel. lol!

Connie on March 7, 2007 at 9:47 PM

We do our best out here on the Great Plains to convey our feelings in a manner that is neither intentionally subtle or overtly offensive, but rather plainspoken so the no misunderstanding can occur. In the case of my previous post however, I did choose to utilize the more subtle form of expression (in deference to those who may not yet have been exposed to stronger forms of communication) Had I chosen to take the other path my comments no doubt would have included a tall cottonwood and a short rope…..(sarcasm!) Public humiliation (as in being thoroughly trounced in an election) of those who seek the limelight is always preferable (and far more satisfying) than just about any other way of dealing with someone of Mr. Hagels calibre.

Remember, the Clintons used third party candidates to get slick willy elected. It’s in their playbook and they always stick to the playbook.

Mojave Mark on March 7, 2007 at 9:59 PM

Exactly. The strategy does work. They’ll use it.
Do not forget that the impeachment drive against Nixon is also part of the Hillary playbook. Cheney=Agnew, Nixon=Bush. Hillary argued in the early 1970s that only the “appearance” was necessary to fatally taint a sitting president.
Can hardly believe that these people have such a long and sordid involvement in American politics.

Can we expell people from the party?

Yes. Unfortunately it’s called “voting third party.”

WE DO NOT LIKE MR. HAGEL IN NEBRASKA! He said what a CONSERVATIVE should say to get elected and then went totally off the deep end. We are all sort of hoping that he will run again for the senate just so we can dope slap his worthless no good yellowbellied sapsucking backstabbing traitorous ass down! (Did I mention moneygrubbing? OK, Moneygrubbing too!)

To what does Edwards owe his backsliding here?

Appearing in public and speaking.

Time for the Silky Pony to arrange another photo-op in Nawlins.

Hagel must be delusional. Isn’t that grounds for removal from office?
