	Senator: War is destabilizing Mideast - The Boston Globe
		Senator Chuck Hagel of Nebraska, who received two Purple Hearts and other military honors for his service in Vietnam, reiterated his position that the United States needs to develop a strategy to leave Iraq.
		Hagel scoffed at the idea that US troops could be in Iraq four years from now at levels above 100,000, a contingency for which the Pentagon is preparing.
		Hagel, who was among those who advocated sending two to three times as many troops to Iraq when the war began in March 2003, said a stronger US military presence is not the solution.

	Hagel Defends Criticisms of Iraq Policy
		Hagel, a Vietnam War veteran and a potential presidential candidate in 2008, countered in a speech to the Council of Foreign Relations that the Vietnam War "was a national tragedy partly because members of Congress failed their country, remained silent and lacked the courage to challenge the administrations in power until it was too late."
		Hagel said Democrats have an obligation to be constructive in their criticism, but he accused the administration of "dividing the country" with its rhetorical tactics.
		Hagel supported the 2002 resolution to authorize military action in Iraq, but he has emerged as a strong skeptic of the Bush administration's handling of the war.

		Although Hagel doesn’t come from a big state that might be a better political platform, he could emphasize his political independence in an effort to win New Hampshire, a state he has visited that McCain won.
		Although he voted for the resolution authorizing the war in Iraq, Hagel was among the first senators to criticize troop levels and preparation for the reconstruction as inadequate — a view he still holds.

	Chuck Hagel and the Return of the Old Right- by Justin Raimondo
		Hagel's own rise as the champion of the antiwar conservatives — due to this, this, this, and especially this — is the harbinger of the coming realignment.
		Hagel, says Kaus, "chose this moment to make his flamboyant speech" out of sheer opportunism: now that the war is unpopular, it's safe to come out of the closet, so to speak.
		The conventional wisdom has it that the GOP rank-and-file will never countenance Hagel's fierce criticism of the president and the war, but the reality is that he is giving voice to their fears of political extinction and their dawning realization that the war was a hoax and a fool's errand from the beginning.

	Oval Office 2008: Chuck Hagel - Conservative maverick
		The gist of this article is that Hagel is an independent-minded maverick, but one who objects to the charge that he is disloyal, or that he is not a conservative.
		Hagel's lack of determination has been noted by others, says the Times, who consider him a potentially strong president, but an obviously weak candidate.
		Hagel "appears today to be the longest of long shots," says the Times in what should be its concluding paragraph but is, in fact, about eight pages from the end of the article.

		Everybody loves a good conspiracy theory and the revelation that Nebraska Republican Senator Chuck Hagel once ran and is still a major stockholder in the company that owns the company that counted 85 percent of the votes cast in his very own 2002 and 1996 election races is a potential doozy.
		On January 29, The Hill reported that Hagel had reported a financial stake worth $1 million to $5 million in the McCarthy Group Inc., a private merchant banking company based in Omaha.
		In short, Hagel controlled and still partly owns the only voting machines that counted his votes when he ran for election in 1996 and 2002.

	USNews.com: Why Sen. Chuck Hagel is one of the most restive Republicans
		Hagel, his face and chest on fire, dragged what he thought was his brother's lifeless body from the vehicle.
		There have been 19 Foreign Relations Committee hearings on Iraq in 17 months, and Hagel has used that platform to tell the president that, had he heeded some different voices before the invasion of Iraq, he would not be in the current mess.
		Hagel, who also sits on the Intelligence Committee, says that Bush "may be more isolated than any president in recent memory" and therefore susceptible to faulty advice.

	An interview with Sen. Chuck Hagel, Republican from Nebraska, on his new climate bills \| By Amanda Griscom Little \| ...
		Hagel has been sounding off on the challenges of climate change at venues like the Brookings Institution, and late last year he met with British Prime Minister Tony Blair to discuss how to reengage the United States in international efforts to reduce greenhouse-gas emissions.
		Hagel: Domestic public-private partnerships would be the same concept -- you would take resources we have in government, such as the tremendous research efforts in the Department of Energy, and connect those with private-sector firms.
		Hagel: Any time you put mandatory caps on any program -- which I'm opposed to -- you are going to have a consequence from that, and I don't think it's going to be a good consequence.

	Nebraska - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Nebraska's two U.S. senators are Chuck Hagel (Republican) and Ben Nelson (Democrat).
		Despite the current Republican domination of Nebraska politics, the state has a long tradition of electing centrist members of both parties to state and federal office; examples include George Norris (who served his last few years in the Senate as an independent), J.
		This tradition is illustrated by Nebraska's current U. senators: Chuck Hagel is considered a maverick within his party, while Ben Nelson is the most conservative member of his party in the Senate.

	An interview with Sen. Chuck Hagel, Republican from Nebraska, on his new climate bills \| By Amanda Griscom Little \| ...
		Hagel spoke with Grist from his Senate office in Washington, D.C., about the debate over what's causing global warming, his opposition to mandatory emissions caps, and the divide in the Republican Party between those who do consider climate change an urgent concern and those who don't.
		Hagel: The objective is to address the issue of greenhouse-gas emissions in a realistic and achievable way.
		Hagel: On the international bill, the focus is to get developing countries, which are becoming the greatest emitters of greenhouse gases, into a position where we can share technology with these countries that would leapfrog the old industrialized dirty-energy sources of economic growth -- clean coal and diesel-use technologies and renewable-energy sources.
