"I'm very upset with John with some of the things he's been saying. And I can't get into the psychoanalysis of it. But I believe that John is smarter than some of the things he is saying.

Sen. Chuck Hagel, speaking in Washington tonight, according to the Huffington Post. Sen. Hagel also bestowed on Obama many encomiums.
