Obama-Hagel

[Thrill]

LOL. I know this Photo makes some squirm.

[Rosa Luxemburg]

1. NO NO NO

NEIN, NON, LO

[Inuca]

16. Any sense of humor?

It's a very funny picture. Hagel looks like a shy girl on a first date

[gateley]

2. Nah, they're buds from the SFRC.

And I'm sure they got to know each other better on this trip.

I wouldn't mind seeing Hagel as SOD.

14. 16 Years of republican control of Defense

Is there any wonder that the public thinks Dems. are weak on Defense since the Dem. keep turning the Pentagon over to them? Certainly no republican would ever turn over State or Defense to a Dem. They're smarter than that.

[question everything]

3. No. We have enough Democrats who can be his running mates

Look at the person on Obama's right - Jack Reed. A military man who can contribute as much as Hagel.. and is a Democrat.

[MarjorieG]

7. Reed is wonderful, but quoted as saying more important to Obama on Armed Services Cmte.

[TwilightGardener]

9. He's also made Sherman-type statements that he wasn't interested, but

if duty calls...he might be persuaded, I think.

[TwilightGardener]

4. He's a cabinet pick, for sure. They look good together, though.

Handsome couple, LOL! Hagel pretty much made the bipartisan CODEL possible--what other Repub Senator was going to sit behind Obama and back him up on this fantastic trip? Obama owes him just a little, IMO. Proud of my Senator for pretty much giving his party the middle finger on the world stage.

[Inuca]

17. Handsome couple like in

when is the wedding? And before stones start flowing my way, no, I do not mean political wedding .

[ruggerson]

5. Well we almost made it 24 hours without an Obama/Hagel thread

[Thrill]

8. LOL. I know it drives people nuts.

But they seem in love here. LOL

[snowbear]

15. LOL... Were you timing us Ruggerson?

6. Not fun anymore.

[Renew Deal]

10. It's nice, but I don't think it's going to happen.

[niceypoo]

11. Hagel agrees with the Democrats about 10% of the time...

Why so many 'Democrats' are infatuated with him escapes me

[LynneSin]

19. I think it's bullshit that anyone here thinks Hagel is Obama VP material

[bullwinkle428]

22. I'm often surprised we don't see Obama-Paul threads...

[Larkspur]

12. No way

Hagel can have a cabinet position but no the VP slot.

[quakerboy]

13. Obama-Cheney

lets show some real bipartisanship here. If your gonna go down that route, commit fully.

[LynneSin]

18. Oh hell, why are you so lame! Let's just resurrect Reagan and make it Obama-Reagan

[quakerboy]

20. True

Though Reagan was a bit of a softy compared to good ol Dick. Perhaps we could use genetic material from both to clone a super-republican, and that can be Obamas running mate?

[WinkyDink]

21. Is Hagel a Democrat yet?
