Sen. John McCain R-Ariz. blasted former Sen. Chuck Hagel R-Neb. this morning for his positions against the war in Iraq – including the surge that brought stability into the region.
Hagel refused to say whether his position on the surge was a mistake and tried to explain his comments.
“I want to know if you were right or wrong,” McCain fired back. “Its a direct question, I demand a direct answer.”
Hagel refused to give McCain a yes or no answer, but added that he still believed the Iraq war was a “war of choice” and the “most fundamentally bad, dangerous decision since Vietnam.”
