Bush "Disconnected From Reality" - Hagel

Nebraska Republican Sen. Chuck Hagel is angry. He's upset about the more than 1,700 U.S. soldiers killed and nearly 13,000 wounded in Iraq. He's also aggravated by the continued string of sunny assessments from the Bush administration, such as Vice President Dick Cheney's recent remark that the insurgency is in its "last throes." "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." It is good to see that at least ONE member of the Republican party has the balls to speak up. Unlike Media Whore John McCain in his lame appearance on Meet The Press, Hagel is refreshingly candid although the term "disconnected from reality" is a mild description of King George IMO. MORE....
