Stating the obvious. Still I think he's right, that it looks like they knew he was a problem and turfed him out. And now we're supposed to see him as a guy who suddenly snapped instead of a ticking time bomb. Which it seems pretty clear he actually was.

We need to start questioning Obama!

We have been looking for Osama Bin Laden for years. Has anybody ever put a picture of Obama next to Osama and removed by photo shop Osama’s Beard? You think we know Obama’s missing background?

Why did he bow to the Saudi’s?

Americans shoud be worried about Obama!

"But the investigators say it is not clear if Dr. Hasan actually wrote those messages. "

In retrospect, it seems very likely.

Sadly, this shows that the Army still does not take protecting soldiers' mental health as seriously as it does training them to shoot.

No, Bob. It shows that the Army was afraid of PC blowback. If someone else had been spouting radical stuff like Hasan did in his MPH courses, he would have been relieved of duty. Hasan was not because people were afraid to look prejudiced.

Considering that Schieffer is an absolutely reliable MSM insider to the Nth degree, this could be significant.

President Zer0 is waiting for Michelle to fully craft him a white knitted Muslim head cap (sorry don’t know the proper name) so Zer0 can emerge into the Rose Garden to allay our fears that the muzzies, like him, are not a threat to modern civilization

Individual Jihad Syndrome, particuarly within the US military ranks means something...it also means something in the general populace.

People die...families and friends are emotionally traumatized, people are scarred and maimed. The teror in the community...and ultimately its anger are inflamed.

If the idiots trying to write this off...to minimize it, cannot see this, too bad for them. But clearly there are individuals being radicalized by the teachings they are receiving either at their Mosque or online, or by others, and who then, on their own, wage violent, murderous Jihad.

Hasan is an example of this.

We now have documented reports that he attended the same Mosque at the same time as two of the 911 hijackers/terrorists, and was taught by the same radical Imam from that Mosque. In addition, he was under FBI investigation for internet postings equating muslim suicide bombers with GIs who threw themselves on grenades to save their comrades, and for his comments after last summer's Little Rock, Arkasas incident where a radical muslim killed the Army recruiter there. His comments basically expressed understanding of that individual's actions and the thought that perhaps more Muslims should take the fight to America in such a fashion.

Those around him knew of his radical views and some reported them. He was not shy about those views.

We need to recognize this for what it is and stamp out those who are teaching and encouraging others to wage war on America from the inside. We need to ruthlessly put down those who do so. This man should be quickly executed for his actions.

Sedition, treeason, and the conequences of it mean something...they mean a lot...and we either respond appropriately to it, or suffer the consequences.

I have little faith that the current occupant of the White House will respond appropriately or stongly to it.

THE AUDACITY OF TRUTH ABOUT BARACK HUSSEIN OBAMA'S UPBRINGING

Did you notice that there was not one thing said about Hasan’s Muslim beliefs and asking the question if this guy is a terrorist who infiltrated our military?

This is the story that will be coming from the MSM. CBS is usually the lead on these stories coming out of the White House.

The White House’s message you can say anything about this ust make sure you don’t say anything about Islam and terrorism.

And then there is the other part that often happens in government: Don't deal with a problem, shuffle it off to somewhere else.

That is Bob Shieffer's permission for Obama to blame it on Bush.

Poor Bob. Now he’ll never have lunch at the White House.

He’s entirely correct. The FBI, Army, and who knows who else are in full CYA mode.

“Sadly, this shows that the Army still does not take protecting soldiers’ mental health as seriously as it does training them to shoot.”

This is another example of the military choking on the political correctness being shoved down the throats of our military by leftist politicians that can’t tell the Medal of Honor from a fraternity pin. My son is a Marine and believe me, they don’t like it any more than we do.

"it is not clear if Dr. Hasan actually wrote those messages. Based on what we know so far, my question is, do you suppose anyone has even asked him?"

Typical ignorant legacy media 'reporter'. It is easy to Monday morning quarterback news events. The question for a REAL reporter should be: "Did anyone in the military know about this before the shootings"? I doubt that the military has the resources to follow every quote on every militant Islamic web site, and then cross check radical quotes with names of military personnel (assuming they don't use fake names). Schieffer, you're ignorant.
