Man, Wolcott wields words like a scalpel.
"'RE: HAGEL [Michael Ledeen]
Senator Hagel has certainly earned the Jimmy Carter Appeasement Award for 2005. As I've noted before, the man has never met a tyrant he didn't want to negotiate with. Maybe he should run for president with Jesse Jackson as his mate.

Let's review, shall we?
Chuck Hagel, two Purple Hearts and a Bronze Star for his Vietnam War service.
Jimmy Carter, seven years in the Navy, including serving under Admiral Rickover in the development of the nuclear submarine program.
Michael Ledeen? Let's just say he won't be regaling them at the VFW lodge anytime soon. Indeed, the closest he's come to combat has been listening to Roger L. Simon's Hollywood war stories from his heroic screenwriting days.
Memo to Ledeen: There's a stature gap between you and Hagel/Carter that puts you in the pygmy shade."
