Chuck Hagel braces for backstabbing.

This time I'm leaving it up to Crooks 'n Liars. They point out an appearance by Hagel yesterday in which the Republican senator outrages the right by, you know, telling the truth.

"The Republicans' hands aren't clean on this either. What we did with Bill Clinton's nominees - about 62 of them - we just didn't give them votes in committee or we didn't bring them up."
