The Hagel conundrum

Form what I can make of the news, former Senator Chuck Hagel is apparently being grilled by every Republican ever up on Capitol Hill, despite being a well-respected Republican, and a veteran with that oh-so-important badge of honor called service in the Vietnam War. It seems to me that what republicans reek of isn't petty revenge, but desperation. What they see is a white, war veteran, who has been ostracized from their supposedly perfect party. And so they fight, till the bitter end. They continue to knife their former friend in the back, all because he thinks it's wrong to send innocent men and women off to die on some god-forsaken pile of sand and bombs, just for lower oil prices? It's nothing more than a smear campaign, and a haunting warning to any elephants watching this go down. Your party is eating itself alive, and unless you want to go down with the ship, come to your senses. Realize that you haven't left the party, it just left you.

Sincerely,
K
