Senator wants immediate cease-fire [Hagel!]
Jewish Telegraphic Agency ^ | 7-31-2006 | NA

A leading Republican senator said President Bush should call for an immediate Israel-Hezbollah cease-fire. “The sickening slaughter on both sides must stop,” Sen. Chuck Hagel (R-Neb.) said Monday on the Senate floor.

Hagel said the U.S.-Israel link is special, but said that the link should not come at the expense of relationships with the Arab and Muslim worlds. Hagel is a possible contender for the Republican nomination for president in 2008.

As far as the media is concerned, a Republican is a 'Leading Republican' only when they agree with libs & Rats.

LOL, a leading Republican media whore.

Yawn, if the Pres said the sky was blue, Hagel would disagree, just another US Senator that abuses his office.

Who does this Bozo think will vote for him in a GOP primary. He's completely delusional.

Personally, I have been calling for Israel to stop for over a week now with the following reason.

1) They stop for 48 hours and if rockets come in, they absorb the loss.

2) After 48 hours of being hit unilaterally, they flatten Lebanon.

The only thing HAGel is a contender for is traitor of the year

No ceasefire. Not today. Not tommorow. Not until the last Hezbollah terrorist keels over with his body riddled with bullets and smoke pouring out of his pretty much dead body can there be a ceasefire.

Well, that is interesting and a non-starter.
Thanks for posting this, Johnny7.

We need to seriously target every Rino Senator that can possibly be replaced with a conservative., Some places it will be tough but how the hell did Nebraska get to be a liberal bastion, I thought it was mainly corn fields.

"Leading Republican?"

The term they meant was "McCain Republican."
