1-Lanny, you might get an "I mispoke, sorry if I offended anyone". If my dog spoke english, she'd apolgize if she took food of the table (she doesn't). All the better to do it again.
2-His comments regarding the USO in Tel Aviv and the opinions of the very few Jewish constituents he was burdened with in Nebraska are far more instructive, and you won't hear a word about those. Heck, you'll hardly read about them. But I suspect you know about them.

I hope the Republicans ask him the TOUGH QUESTIONS.
Like: “Do you believe that Jews were also killed in Hitler’s Holocaust”
Most likely he’ll say something like “Probably, based on what people have told me - but I’ll check on it”.
Maybe Obama ought to explain to the American people why his views dovetail with Hagel’s?
(1) Unfortunately, Lanny, Democratics don't play that way, and Republicans' only get their selections after a B-L-O-O-D-Y battle (can you say Bork? - yeah I know that was for SCOTUS, but still)
(2) He probably will get approved after the dog and faux-ny show of hearings
(3) hopefully the hearings will expose that Hagel and HIS policies are EXACTLY the same as Obama's policies.
(4) A Republican will now be the scapegoat for the resulting catastrophe's of those policies
(5) Obama NEVER is blamed for failures in his administration -- usually because the media won't actually call them the failures they are. (6) the first black president will never be a failure if the media can avoid reporting it.
Didn’t the Dems oppose John Tower for Defense Sec. under Reagan and Bush lose his choice for Attorney General?
Is the bar too high only for Democratic choices?

All Hagel really has to do is point out that a large majority of American Jews voted for the Kenyan, a known anti-Semite, then shrug and say "hey, if they don't care, why should I?"
“Hagel must address Jewish Lobby comment”
Why must he address it?
70% of Jews would vote for Obama again if he nominated the head of Hamas as SECDEF.
Hagel doesn’t have to address a damn thing.
