I was just reading a story about how much difficulty Hagel had articulating the Zero’s policies.

Duh!!!

No doubt, even he, couldn’t stomach the absurdity of the defense policies (or lack there of) of this Anti-American Administration.

All part of the plan to blame any failures on republicans or some minority that can’t be critisized.

Well, it certainly makes sense that holding the post of Secretary of Defense under an administration that doesn’t believe in national defense would be a rather daunting one. Hagel couldn’t articulate King Baraq’s policies because there are no concrete ones... only the King’s whims of the day.

Not that he was the sharpest knife in the drawer, I think he was probably more pro-military than Bowbama wanted.

Maybe odumbo will tap Bernardine Dohrn or Bill Ayers — You know, so can finish what they started in the 1960s and 70s — Only from the inside and with white hut approval. Seems reasonable...

Another one is tossed under the bus...

Next nominee should be gay, or Lois Lerner. Obama needs to work fast, he only has 26 months left.

Guy was not the sharpest tool in the shed. Disaster from day one. Not sure if he is to blame or he just followed Obama’s lead.

Maybe Obama will nominate Elizabeth Warren to straighten things out! Or maybe this is a chance to give Susan Rice a second shot. Sure she is on the phone with Valerie Jarrett trying to get the job right now.

Oh, let it be Rice. The (new) Senate will have some fun with the nomination process.

I was watching him talk on DOD television late last week and he had a gash on his left cheek that was only partly covered by a bandaid.

I keep thinking of the Rod Steiger character in Mars Attacks.

Obama has only two years left to ruin the military and Hagel isn't up to the job....
