Hagel just giving a very passionate (for him) defense of civil liberties re: The Patriot Act. Not exactly at Viagra level of passion but a healthy outlook on why we need to preserve domestically those things for which we are prepared to fight on foreign soils.

Hairplug Joe is such a joke by comparison. I was hoping Hagel would question his religion so Joe could try to ram his rosary beads down Chuck's throat.

Kennedy says that Rove should leave because he's being investigated. With the Dems penchant for investigating Republicans they could get anybody to leave by that standard.

"Harry Reid did more in 2 hours than had been done in 2 years"......Kennedy is reading off the same talking points that Rockefeller used the other day on the Tony Snow show.
