Sen. Chuck "Wolf" Hagel, at his much-anticipated news conference today, announced...well, that he'll be making another announcement later this year about his political future. Any more of these over-hyped teasers, Chuck, and you'll be making your next announcement to a room full of crickets.
Also, Lt. Gen. Kevin Kiley, former Walter Reed superintendent and current Surgeon General of the Army, was reported to have submitted his retirement request today. Kiley, who infamously "doesn't do barracks inspections," has been the public face of the arrogance and ineptitude underlying the Walter Reed outpatient care fiasco. Good riddance, although several years too late.
