Chuck Hagel: Democrat.

Putz, who ridiculed the eight generals who called for Rumsfeld to step down, was against listening to the generals before he was for it.

GENERAL JOHN ABIZAID, in The Harvard Gazette:

America cannot walk away from Iraq without risking another world war. That warning was sounded at the Kennedy School forum Nov. 17 by Gen. John Abizaid, commander of the United States Central Command (CENTCOM), the man responsible for U.S. military strategy in the Middle East.

"We can walk away from this enemy, but they will not walk away from us," Abizaid told the forum audience during a discussion titled "The Long War."

...

Read the whole thing -- and remember that the big rap against Rumsfeld was supposedly that he "didn't listen to the generals." So will the Democrats, and Rumsfeld's successors, listen to this?

Chuck Hagel, last week:

A leading Republican senator called Sunday for American troops to begin withdrawing from Iraq, declaring that a U.S. pullout is needed to head off "impending disaster" in the nearly 4-year-old war.

"There will be no victory or defeat for the United States in Iraq," Sen. Chuck Hagel wrote in Sunday's edition of The Washington Post.

Instead, he said, President Bush should use the upcoming report from a bipartisan panel led by former Secretary of State James Baker to begin laying the groundwork for a "phased withdrawal" of U.S. troops.

Chuck Hagel: Republican

In his editorial he was echoing comments made by former Nixon Secretary of State Henry Kissinger.

He also voted with the President 95% of the time in this last session of Congress.
