The pre-tea party Republicans stabbing common sense in the back yet again.
Pointless. The McInsane/Linseed axis has already declared defeat, so I don’t know why Shelby would do this. Maybe he’s the tip of that spear. Hagel will get in, by a lot. One by one the Senators will fall in line. Just like with Kerry.
To stab it, they have to have some grasp of it.
Anyway, the debate isn’t about what Hagel did or didn’t say, but about what he remembers saying. Did he recently have a “concussion”?
