At a small gathering at the residence of the Italian ambassador Tuesday, Republican Senator Chuck Hagel took serious issue with some of the things John McCain has been saying lately about “appeasement,” urging him to elevate the level of discourse in the campaign.


I’m very upset with John with some of the things he’s been saying.

I believe that John is smarter than some of the things he is saying.”

Hagel also warned that he would not hesitate to seek the impeachment of President Bush if he unilaterally attacked Iran.


An attack on Iran without Congress’ consent, he added, “would bring with it… outstanding political consequences, including for the Republican Party.”
