It's kind of interesting to watch Obama take on the Israel lobby by nominating Hagel for Secretary of Attack. Republicans have filibustered his appointment.

"Regardless of what they say, the reason is because Hagel is not seen as being as bloodthirsty and war-crazed as they are. The GOP cannot be reformed or made libertarian leaning. It is fully devoted to the warfare state."

In a war weary country, Obama nominated a slightly less warmongering Republican and forced Republicans to block him. It's almost funny to see how easy it is for Obama to crush these losers. He's happier than two guitarists getting paid to do cute Geico commercials.
