Secretary of Defense resigns

SEC DEF resigns. This is kind of abrupt. He had my sympathies as he was a former enlisted man. Personally, I think we are on the brink of a major conflict.

Meh, he was fired... And he wasn't friendly to the US...

Here's CNBC's version: http://www.cnbc.com/id/102183397

How many has Obama been through now?

I heard that you shouldn't send a Sargent to do a secretary's job. Want to bet they hire a female of color with zero military experience to take his place? I can't think of any other democrat that could possibly be qualified.

Hagel was an idiot. I respect the man as a combat veteran but his judgment on national security strategy has sucked at least since he was kowtowing to Clinton in the 90s.

EDIT: Having said that, I firmly believe he was torpedoed by Obama.

With whom/where?

Obama is looking for someone more pliable, more of a fellow traveler in the totalitarian/muslim/anti-zionist way.

Interdasting.
Hagel supposedly is an Islam convert.
I saw a blurb on Friday that Obozo secretly signed a deal to up our commitment in 'Astan.
Hagel was the only Republican in Obozos cabinet.


Or Obozo needed to change the MSM talking points to take the heat off the ImmyGratin EO
