Secretary of Defense Chuck Hagel speaks to U.S. military personnel upon his arrival at the Yokota...

When a colonel at Yakota Air Base in Japan asked Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel to identify his biggest challenge, Hagel replied with a politically-correct word salad that didn't exactly answer the question and left everyone in the room confused as to what he was trying to say.

"I think, as everyone in this room who has responsibilities for leadership, and you all do, at different levels, you know in the end, that's all that matters, is how you leave. Is the institution better and stronger than you found it, and that's why I have built the greatest Department of Defense, I think, in history," Hagel replied. "And I know every country feels the same way about their institutions."

"So when you ask the question about what is my biggest challenge, I see my job as — yes, a lot of challenges, yes a lot, but also a lot of opportunities, with challenges" he continued. "Challenges come with the territory, a lot of them. You all know that. I don't know of anyone's life that's without challenges, regardless of their professional career, but that's the history of our world. When you really isolate down on the responsibilities of the secretary of defense, first, the responsibilities and the challenges are large in scope. I hope I answered your question. "
The room was full of very intelligent Army Officers, imagine their horror that their lives depend on Hagel's decisions. One Officer pointed out "It's almost as if he thought he was talking to a MSNBC reporter, not a senior U.S. military officer."

"The room was full of very intelligent Army Officers,..."-RealTool

RealTool let's slip his real opinion of the military.
He goes out of his way to let us know that this was an exceptional room, a room full of "very intelligent" Army officers, as opposed to the usual bunch of Army officers. :shock:

You can't simply make stuff up, RealTool.
Hagel is a bumbling idiot, I'm not making that up, anyone who is honest will tell you that, our military deserves better. Hagel and Pelosi would make a great pair, they're both suffering from advanced senile dementia, the big difference is Hagel is in charge of our military, Pelosi just talks to herself and can't do any harm.

Jesus H. Chrisis, RealTool, you're flailing around like Leroy trying desperately to weasel out of your lie.
But it won't work.

Hagel did not say what you quoted him as saying. You;re nothing but a liar.
You made it up because, like the rest of the reactionary Right, you can't persuade anyone to your point of view with the truth.

Damn clown, clam down and take a chill pill dude. I agree, the things that Hagel says and does are almost unbelievable, but don't kill the messenger.

Are you aware Hagel testified before Congress that it was the Obama's Administration goal to only "contain" Iran's nuclear weapons program, not to stop it? Two minutes later he denied "remembering" saying that and also denied that was the Obama Administration's goal, he changed it to saying if was the goal to keep Iran from getting nuclear weapons, he only said that after being handed a note to say it. The man is a flaming idiot. That's not a lie either but it does sound unbelievable.

Wow, RealTool, don't get your panties in a bunch.

I agree, the things you post are unbelievable, but don't kill the messenger.
Flailing and pointing at anything and everything else won't stop people from seeing you fabricate quotations because the truth won't persuade others to your point of view.
And making a bunch of unsupportable statements about other supposed pronouncements won't make you credible either.

Well while in China Hagel had a meeting with a Chinese General who told Hagel about his mistrust of Japan and how his uncles died as slaves in a Japanese mine during World War Two, Hagel was quick to point out that his father had also fought against Japan as if pointing out the United States' alliance with China against Japan. What an idiot.

"Hagel was quick to point out that his father had also fought against Japan as if pointing out the United States' alliance with China against Japan."-RealTool

Well, no one can stop you from interpreting those words in such an idiotic way.

"You see what you want to see, and you hear what you want to hear."

You will ALWAYS see anything Obama or anyone related to him says in a bad light.
ALWAYS. That's because you're a Real Tool.

Apologizing for and defending the incompetent and unqualified Dear Leader and his minions is turning into a full time job for the Lucky Junkie ClownDicker. No doubt entire bales of pot are being burned and kilos of heroin injected by the ClownDicker in a futile attempt to regain his mellow.
Chill d00d, it's all good.


Like, wow man.

No, I'm saying he didn't mean what YOU said, dumbfuck.
Now, now clown no need for name calling, let's keep this discussion civil like adults. To set the record straight, I said what he said, so you're saying what he said isn't what he meant because I said what he said? :roll:

Hagel confused Hillary with Michelle today when talking about out First Lady. After his aide whispered in his ear he corrected himself and said he meant it was Hillary Clinton who dodged the shoe not our current First Lady. He then started walking away but his aide once again corrected him and directed him in the right direction. If Hagel was a dog he would be put down, why is Obama doing this to us?
