Conscience

Paraphrasing Sen. Chuck Hagel on MTP:

I saw 58,000 get chewed up by Vietnam and I'm gonna ask the hard questions so it doesn't happen in Iraq.

Maybe he has trouble sleeping at night? He also stood by his statement earlier in the week.

"Things aren't getting better; they're getting worse. The White House is completely disconnected from reality," Hagel tells U.S. News. "It's like they're just making it up as they go along. The reality is that we're losing in Iraq."


Good on him. Let's hope a few more moderate Repubs have an attack of conscience. Chris Dodd was good too.

Update: 14:10:

The essential PSoTD has more detail on Ol' Chuck.
