Chuck Hagel wasn’t the only Republican member of Congress on Cindy Sheehan’s list of supporters she claims telephoned her during her Texas protest of President Bush to offer their “support and love” for her efforts. Sheehan claims North Carolina House Republican Walter Jones also placed a call.
I just spoke with Congressman Jones on the phone. Like Hagel, Jones denies a phone call or endorsement of Sheehan’s political protest ever took place:
“I was contacted about two weeks by some of Ms. Sheehan’s people. They asked, if I was called, would I accept a call from Ms. Sheehan thanking me for HJ 55. I told them that I would speak to anyone who wanted to call and discuss the bill, including Ms. Sheehan. However, I never received a call.”
“I did write a letter to her after her son died about two years ago. I’ve sent letters to nearly all of the families of the close to 2,000 soldiers who have died. She also visited me in my office about two or three months ago with two other Gold Star Mothers for Peace. I’ll visit with any parent who has lost family in the war.”
BTW move NOLA fifty miles inland and rebuild.
Hmmm, who to believe, the "mavericks" Hagel and Jones, or the moonbat "Mother" Sheehan?
Gotta think about that one for a while.
The woman has been unhinged for a long time. It's disgusting how the media and other Leftist organizations have turned this woman's psychoses into a prop for their talking points.
Hagel has no credibility
If Windy Banshee did lie..... Hagel should call a press conference and set the record straight by calling her a LIAR.!
Neither of them are credible. Who can know?
Sen. Chuck supported her, before he opposed her.
It's seared in my memory.
He has a long history of lying thru his teeth and cinderbrain was the perfect venue for his distortions and lies.
"Sheehan made a claim that amongst others, Senator Hagel had called her."
...when, actually, someone said "Cindy, there's a Lenders Bagle for you by the phone..."
Ya know, as distasteful as this whole Cindy Circus is, it is just hurting the Dems - if they want a far left commie to be the face of their party, I say let them. The history books will draw their Whigs comparisons and that'll be that.
I wouldn't believe that scum Hagel if he said the sky was blue. He lost his credibility a loooooooooooooooong time ago.
Hey, Chuck! Your fifteen minutes are up, and so are Cindy's. Go back to Nebraska.....if you don't think they'll give you a feather suit held on with tar!
He is to full of himself to give the time of day to anyone who is not in the media, and, from his point of view, he has nothing to gain from talking to her.
Senator Hagel is pretty bad on foreign policy and politics, the only time you can count on him, is on social and most economic issues....but he'll still make it sound like he is a liberal.
Now there is a man who must REALLY hate his job most days.
I took the liberty of adding to your title. I hope you don't mind.
Why does it matter? Is there really anything Chuck Hagel can do to make you think less of him?
Frankly, it sounds like the kind of thing Hagel would do. He is finished as a Republican. He's done, he's history. Adios, Chuck.
For the record, I called Cindy...
a nut.
