WASHINGTON - Nebraska Republican Sen. Chuck Hagel said his party's vice presidential nominee, Sarah Palin, lacks foreign policy experience and called it a "stretch" to say she's qualified to be president.
"She doesn't have any foreign policy credentials," Hagel said in an interview published Thursday by the Omaha World-Herald. "You get a passport for the first time in your life last year? I mean, I don't know what you can say. You can't say anything."

Lincoln Chafee would be so proud of you Chuckie!!
When did Harry Truman get his passport?
The Army was all the passport he needed during WWI.
Shoulda known is was him. Why I bother clicking on a headline like that I dunno.
Hagel is just mad, that after all his kissing up to the rats, nobody ever offered him the job of CEO at Fannie Mae!
Hagel has severe insecurity issues, which is why he feels the need to attack a woman on an issue which is irrelevant to the matter at hand.
The main criteria for electing a US leader is:
Do they have a solid record of good judgement?
good morals?
good character?
Good financial history?
And do they have a loyality and love for the USA which is beyond reproach?
Hillary’s afraid of “strong women”...........
You didn’t used to need a passport to go to Canada. Hagel is part of the problem in DC. Perhaps Palin could make an effort to mount his head among the first on the trophy wall in her office.
chuck, what foreign policy exp does obama have except traveling to pakistan to do what? he won’t tell and his world tour?
I guess Chucks buddy Bill Clinton was a foreign policy expert when he ran in 92. How many Arkansas can fit into Alaska? Chuck, please shut up and go away.
Obama going to Iraq to negotiate foreign policy behind the President’s back is good foreign policy?
Hagel is that POS that gets stuck in your throat just before you hurl into the porcelain tempest....
Not much difference between Hagel and Chafee.
just sent the following:
In case you have NOT noticed.........Amercians and Republicans love Sarah Palin. Only an ingnorant Washington elitist would say she is unqualified.
BTW, she has more guts and courage than all of you loser Republican senators combined. You have done nothing to open up drilling. This latest bill floated by the Democrats is a disgrace. Try doing YOUR job, or Sarah will be there soon to kick some butt in those Naughty Monkey shoes she wears.
>I don’t know what you can say. You can’t say anything.<
So what forced you to rise out of obscurity to open your big mouth, Hagel? And why at this particular time?
It’s a stretch to call him a Republican, let alone a senator.
