Republican Chuck Hagel on GWB:
“The president says, ‘I don’t care.’ He’s not accountable anymore, which isn’t totally true. You can impeach him, and before this is over, you might see calls for his impeachment. I don’t know. It depends how this goes. Congress abdicated its oversight responsibility, the press abdicated its responsibility, and the American people abdicated their responsibilities. Terror was on the minds of everyone, and nobody questioned anything, quite frankly.”
To Condoleeza Rice:
“Some of us remember 1970, Madam Secretary, and that was Cambodia, and when our government lied to the American people and said, We didn’t cross the border into Cambodia. In fact, we did. I happen to know something about that. I have to say, Madam Secretary, that I think this speech given last night by this president represents the most dangerous foreign-policy blunder in this country since Vietnam — if it’s carried out.
I will resist it.”
