In all of the years that I have been following politics, I don't know if I have ever seen a politician speak so straightforwardly about anything as Chuck Hagel did today. Given the choice between him and, say, a parsing weasel like Joe Biden, I'd have to take Hagel.
..and I stole the video from Digby because I think it's one of those rare moments in American history that needs to be seen by everyone, particularly the "gumptionless" done-nothing parrots of the party line.
