M.J. Rosenberg on Hagel: he lied at the hearings

M.J. Rosenberg, whom I hesitate to characterize as a worm for fear of offending some invertebrate, tweeted the following during the Hagel's hearings at the Senate:

I spent a couple of hours with Hagel a few years ago. Talked about Israel. Happily, he is lying today & knows it. He'll be a good SeDef.

I would recommend to listen to what this critter says, he knows all about lying. I would also recommend to read the whole linked above post (and the comments too), there is much more.

I was startled first at the brazen openness of that exchange, after all it could be damaging to Hagel, as well as to the man behind his nomination. But then I had me a second thought: the POTUS is in his second term now, so the gloves could be removed...
