One of the things that I think is interesting about this is that the left is beside itself in being quick to point out that Hagel sits on the Senate Intelligence Committee, and therefore he is privy to intelligence information, and therefore his position on the Iraq War is extra valuable.

 

And yet, they also seem adamant in telling us that Bush, and ONLY Bush, is responsible for the Iraq War. Apparently the people sitting on the ICs then, who saw the same intelligence and supported the war, that doesn't count! Oh no, it's all BUSH's fault! (chuckle) Gotta love hypocrisy.

 

Anyway, that's more or less a side issue. The main point of interest here is that Bush's support continues to erode as Republicans ponder their slimming re-election chances in 2006.

Oh, but Allan Colmes, when defending the hypocrits, claims that the antagonists got "different" intelligence than Bush got.......meaning that the Bush "intelligence" revealed that there were No WMD's.
