No, try to pay attention. It was a question to Trackfan regarding his assertion. Go back and re read very slowly.

Agreed, but its also lazy to question a Vietnam veterans patriotism by accusing him of taking money from extremist.
I sure hope the irony was not lost on our TB poliboard posters when Cruz was alluding to Hagel being in the pay of foreign interests. Wow, the Republican Party is controlled by a foreign lobby!!! Oh my

Because Hagel hates the joooooosss. They will defend him even though he looked incredibly incompetent during the hearing.
Ummmmm, sir, the only person that looked incredibly incompetent was the gang of Repubes questioning the man more about his allegiance to another country. It was so bad and hypocritical, you could literally see the air coming out of AIPAC's lackeys as these fools unwittingly made comments that were so perfect in describing their own MO while projecting on to Hagel. Hagel had the last laugh....

I wonder how many Republicans on Capitol Hill have taken money from Sheldon Adelson, a man who not only has extremist views, but who also is more loyal to a foreign nation than he is to the U.S. LINK

Adelson, the dual-citizen who wishes he would have worn another country's military uniform. The man who paraded around the country in support of Bibi Netanyahu, interfering in a US Presidential race for a foreign country in a most unprecedented way? That guy? The one who bankrolled Romney?

Notice that Ted Cruz gets chastised and labeled "McCarthy" in articles and opinion columns, but Elizabeth Warren gets praised and highlighted for the exact same antics. Same for Barbara Boxer, Al Franken, Chuck U. Schumer et al. Warren's gets a story out there celebrating the fact that her stupid questions have become her biggest YouTube hit to date. Double standard, anyone?

You find Carrollton to be liberal? Interesting that if one questions the US's disastrous relationship with Israel they get pilloried and branded a liberal.

Okay, they're demagogues. That's hardly a rarity in D.C. And there's still a double standard going on here. By the way, I finally watched the Cruz/Hagel exchange. It is ridiculous how concerned he was over Israel. The worst was when he bristled at Israel being accused of war crimes, after they had to endure the Holocaust. So, if you've had war crimes perpetrated against your people, then you're above being questioned about your own country's? Disturbing.

It's his hobby horse but he has a point...can you contradict his points are is your only tactic to call him a nazi? How has the creation of Israel benefitted our nation? How has the continuing relationship advanced US interests? Why does a country we give $3b+ annually continually get away with thumbing its nose at our policy requests?

Sure apparently everyone that disagrees with his political slant concerning the murderous Jews is on the books for AIPAC. This is fricking bull shite.

Why ask this question concerning one country?

Having one stable country in the region aligned with the U.S is a good thing no?

As opposed to Egypts and any number of countries we give tons of money too?
