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....

And Joe Biden’s credentials are that he has been wrong about virtually every foreign-policy issue in the past thirty years.

But she's not running at the top of the ticket Mr. Hagel.

Poor Chuckie. So desperate to get his name on a national ticket he would lick anyone’s boots to get there. Good riddance to bad rubbish. Nebraska will be better off if you never step foot in the state again. Don’t wait... resign now...

It’s amazing how many people speak out so passionately concerning Governor Palin’s qualifications or lack of qualifications for VP, but don’t bother to say one word about the even greater dirth of relevant experience of Barack the Unready. He is the most unqualified major party nominee since WWII, and maybe in US history (just don’t know about both nominees much before Eisenhower/Stevenson).

I then assume Hagel considers the no-experience Barry to be qualified for POTUS?.....

Obama gave a few speeches over in Eurotopia and tried to illegally delay troop withdrawal from Iraq until after he was elected.

That's the extent of his foreign relations experience.

What he doesn’t realize is that it’s a good thing. It’s actually refreshing to have someone that is not locked into policys that do not support this country.

How much pork does this slime Hagel deliver to the entitlement-minded, welfare-mom farmers in Nebraska?

The scariest thing about all this is that Hagel and McCain are about the same on all issues (except Iraq)...note that he does not blast his fellow GOP liberal McCain (more telling than his attack on Palin)

Why the good people of Nebraska continue to abide this idiot is beyond me!

His term is up this year and he isn't running for re-election.

These oafs believe only the washington elite are qualified. Screw them. Their way of doing things has resulted in more disasters than successes.

Time for somebody with a better foundation, one uncontiminated by insider politics.

Right now I’d like to trade Chuck Hagel for Joe Lieberman & call it ‘Even’. All you do, Chuck, is lend cover to the Left-wing of the Democrat Party.

The stretch is to say that Hussein is qualified.
