Zing! But, wait, what? Why the crocodile tears from prospective Secretary of Defense Chuck Hagel?
Schumer says Hagel "almost had tears in his eyes" when he explained to him why Jews were so offended by "Jewish lobby" comment

As we reported during his bumbling and buffoonish Secretary of Defense hearing (even called a train wreck by actor Rob Lowe), Chuck Hagel made his atrocious beliefs about Israel quite clear already. But, you know, Senator Cruz!
Will the #msm accept the 10-1 ratio of attacks vs @Tedcruz vs Examining #hagel record? #tcot wants to know

Twitter users aren’t buying the crocodile tears. They are, however, investing in some hilarious mockery.
Hagel had tears in his eyes to hear that talking about Jewish control of Washington might be upsetting to Jews, Schumer says. Unbelievable.

@Doc_0 If you fear a nuclear attack, you might try using a whistle, or callbox.

The big question remains: What about his utter incompetence?
Remember, the best reason to oppose Hagel? He's an unqualified idiot. http://t.co/BQMFNE6d

If anything should cause “tears,” that should.
