So this is your "proof" that "Chuck Hagel (R) admitted today Iraq is a mess." Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha! This Week With George Stephanopoulos U.S. Ambassador to Iraq John Negroponte; Sen. Joseph Biden (D-Del.); Sen. Chuck Hagel (R-Neb.); Governor Howard Dean; journalists Fareed Zakaria, Claire Shipman and George Will. KGO - ABC Network - Sun Jan 23 2005 at 9:00 AM PST - 1 hour Below is a summary of matches for hagel at 7 minutes 30 seconds And, Senator hagel, let me begin with you. You heard ambassador negroponte there. Are you satisfied that the United states has a clear exit strategy from Iraq? >> "Well, no, I'm not, but I think what's important here is get a wider framework of appreciation of where we're going." at 10 minutes And that's a long way off. So there's a lot of doubt as to what -- at least in my mind as to what the administration's policy is. >> And, Senator hagel, then, If the forces aren't ready, what's the plan B for the United states? >> "I don't know, George. That's partly where at least I was driving in the confirmation hearings for Dr. Rice this week. I know and you know and we all appreciate the fact that Dr. Rice is not going to Lay out all the dynamics of that in a public hearing, but I think the Congress, the American people need to know a lot more" at 13 minutes I don't see any sense of what -- where the parameters of this nebush (new bush?) policy is. >> Excuse me. Let me go to Senator hagel. Dr. Rice did seem to be emphasizing in her testimony, she said it again and again, the time for diplomacy is now signaling more nuance. >> "That's exactly right, George, and I think that is what at least some of us on that committee and in Congress were very pleased to hear." at 15 minutes 30 seconds In fact, Dennis Ross, former mideast negotiator, wrote this month in "foreign affairs," He expects prime minister Sharon to come to the white house this year and say, If you don't act, we will. Just quickly to each of you, Senator hagel, is that going to be necessary this year? >> "I don't know. We have so many miles to travel here in very bumpy road -- on a bumpy road." video.google.com
