Sen. Hagel says GOP has lost its way
By WILL LESTER, Associated Press Writer
WASHINGTON -
Republicans have lost their way when it comes to many core GOP
principles and may be in jeopardy heading into the fall elections,
Sen. Chuck Hagel, R-Neb. says.
Hagel, a possible presidential candidate in 2008, said Sunday that the
GOP today is very different party from the one when he first voted
Republican.
"First time I voted was in 1968 on top of a tank in the Mekong Delta,"
said Hagel, a Vietnam veteran.
"I voted a straight Republican ticket. The reason I did is because I
believe in the Republican philosophy of governance. It's not what it
used to be. I don't think it's the same today."
Hagel asked:
"Where is the fiscal responsibility of the party I joined in '68?
Where is the international engagement of the party I joined -- fair,
free trade, individual responsibility, not building a bigger
government, but building a smaller government?"

Sounds to me like Hagel's asking to be swiftboated. I'm sure the
stinkboaters'll be happy to accomodate him.

Hagel is associated with ES&S voting machines, no? He'll probably never
lose an election. But, of all the alleged election fraud commiting
politicians (and I'm not saying it's just the GOP), he's probably half
decent.

A mass murdering war criminal who votes Republican. That's a first.
