What's up with the Chuck Hagel lovefest?

Sure, it's great he's speaking out against the Iraq War, but this guy is all wrong on just about every other issue out there.

And, i'm talking about this thread:
http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_mesg&forum=104&topic_id=5456376&mesg_id=5456376

and, last week, the Hagel vs Hillary thread.

This guy has a 0% score from NARAL (the abortion rights folks)
0% score from the League of Conservation Voters (the environment)
A 100% score from the Christian Coalition
87% from the Chamber of Commerce
92% from CATO on free trade.

2. Hagel is a dick

He doesn't even pretend to care about Nebraska. OTOH I can respect that he will not just go along with the party on everything.

4. I don't trust him with anything

I think he's just against Iraq because of personal goals. ES&S machines anyone?

6. Even if he is against Iraq for legit reasons

he is still so far from what I believe in on other issues...

5. The whole story about him and his voting machine company

turned me off of the guy forever. I don't care how moderate he is or what liberal point he agrees with. He's a dirtbag as far as I'm concerned.

7. He's only against the war because most of the people are.

I don't trust the man as far as I could throw him. He's also PNAC and the voting machines, so guess he will be our next president.
