Obama endorsed by Lee Hamilton

INDIANAPOLIS - Former Indiana Rep. Lee Hamilton endorsed Sen. Barack Obama for president Wednesday, praising his ability to transcend partisan division and calling his foreign policy outlook "pragmatic, visionary, and tough."

Obama praised Hamilton for his leadership on the 9/11 Commission and the Iraq Study Group.
"Few public servants have done more to advance American foreign policy or to serve the people of Indiana, and I look forward to drawing on his counsel in the months ahead," Obama said in a statement.

Hamilton is best known as the top Democrat on the panel that investigated the 9/11 terrorist attacks. He also was co-chairman of the Iraq Study Group, a bipartisan commission that assessed U.S. policy in Iraq.

3. All of a sudden the 9-11 Tin Foil Hats are off around here.
Remember him getting fried on here for being a "Bush Enabler" for his no-cajones stance on the 9-11 cover-up committee?


It is. To laugh.
