Today I feel like on behalf of my state of Nebraska I need to give an apology to the good people of America, and the people of Iraq, and those around the world who care about whipping the Hitlers of our times. You see many of us in Nebraska voted US Senator Chuck Hagel into office a number of years ago. He has become one of the Republicans who are joining the Democrats in being against what the White House is trying to do in Iraq.
I have some questions and thoughts for the good Senator, and others who have spoken out against the war, regardless of their political party.
1. Do you recall what happened in America on September 11, 2001? Is it going to take another 911 attack to show you we are in a war with people who want us dead, and want to destroy this nation as we know it.
2. Senator as you know war is never easy, but should our leaders only do the easy thing. If we had done the easy thing years ago a mad killer by the name of Hitler would be running this nation along with the world and perhaps destroying it. The easy thing isn't always the right thing.
3. Don't you realize what you are saying is doing to the morale of our troops, and how those we are fighting against are using your words to hurt the cause.
4. There is a time to speak out against a policy, but that is before the war starts. If you don't agree with what our leader is doing go talk to him instead of putting yourself in front of the media.
For the record if Hagel runs for President my pick is he will not win his home state. If he runs for the Senate again the leaders of his party from the President down should recall what he did, and not support him.
