"President Barack Obama's nominee for Secretary of Defense, Chuck Hagel, has informed the Senate Armed Services Committee that he will not provide foreign financial details for the corporate and nonprofit organizations he was affiliated with since he left the Senate in 2009,"

“He is basically telling Senators they have no right to know if he has been unduly influenced by foreign governments or foreign agents over the last five years. What is he hiding?”

So are they going to ask everyone else that question? Or only Hagel?

Have to give all investor info for a prior employer?

Hm.

He gave a reason why he isn't disclosing it, basically saying it would be illegal. Is this true, or is he bullshitting? That's my question.
If the information is legally bound to 'secrecy', it's a matter of Israel firsters not liking his reasoning and trying to find as much dirt
on Hagel as possible.

Sheldon Adelson: Hagel Would Make Us All a Bunch of Losers

Dear Friends,

On Thursday Chuck Hagel appeared before the Senate Armed Services Committee. He appears to have survived it—despite a much-deserved thrashing from the definitely not senile, uber-patriot John McCain—and is one step closer to becoming the next Secretary of Defense.
This fact should make Americans pee in their pants a little. And not from excitement. This is fear-pee I’m talking about—that warm, wet feeling that warns of Immediate Danger Ahead.

Here is why: Chuck Hagel is a loser. Not the kind of loser who seems to so insistently beg for swirlies that even his grandmother can’t resist dunking his head in a john (well, he is that kind of loser, but that’s beside the point). Chuck Hagel is the more literal and insidious kind of loser—the kind whose very presence dooms even the most destined of ventures.
To wit: The former Senator served in Vietnam—honorably, according to the lame stream media. You might think that we should therefore lavish him with praise, and declare him an unequivocal winner.

But think again: Didn’t we lose that war? Are we really supposed to believe that we just happened to fail miserably in that noble campaign, wasting tens of thousands of lives, billions of dollars and more than a decade? I think not. It’s easy enough to put two and two together.
Chuck Hagel served in Vietnam. In Vietnam, America—the most badass country ever conceived by God—got spanked like Nuwanda in Dead Poet’s Society. Q.E.D.

Let me address Mr. Hagel directly: The burden is on you, sir, to prove to the American public that you did not single-handedly lose the Vietnam War, and that your leadership at the Department of Defense would not turn America into the Screech of the world, surrounded by packs of spit-ball shooting, time-stopping Zack Morrises.

Any Senator who votes for the confirmation of Chuck Hagel is voting for perpetual defeat. They’re voting for the triumph of pussies over patriots. They’re voting to make us all a bunch losers.

Sincerely,
Sheldon Adelson

This is just more feedback from the Israel lobby. They're running TV commercials against him, funded by an anonymous donor, so it's pretty rich for them to yammer that they need to know who paid him to speak.

I sure dont remember all this hubhub over Panetta or Gates. Panetta is a freakin Democrat and didn't catch nearly as much shit from Republicans as Hagel is now.

It's pathetic that we are that sold out to the Israeli Lobby and the Military Industrial Complex. Nothing will drive a person to oppose these bastards more than when they attack you relentlessly. I'd imagine Hagel has a bone to pick with these SOBs.

Let's apply this standard to all of AIPAC's cronies. It'll never happen.
