General George Casey, the highest ranking officer in the U.S. Army, said that the deaths of 12 soldiers and one civilian at Foot Hood would become a far greater tragedy “if our diversity becomes a casualty.”
Appearing on “Meet the Press,” Major Casey warned the media that “it is way too soon to draw conclusions” concerning the motive of Major Nidal Malik Hasan.
He upheld the strategy of keeping Muslims - - even radical Muslims - - in key military positions by saying: “Our diversity is our strength.”
“We have to be broad enough to bring in people from all walks of life,” the General said.
The Army’s Chief-of-Staff asserted: As horrific as this tragedy was, if our diversity becomes a casualty, I think that’s worse.”
General Casey further said that the army hadn’t “missed anything” in regard to the in-your-face warning signs exhibited by Major Hasan that he was a fanatical Muslim jihadist and an imminent threat to massacre U.S. troops.

Can I shout out a “Yieks”!
General Casey should be removed.
Casey is an asshat
What a maroon!
This person needs help. How did such an idiot ever reach such a level in the military?
I can’t read this as the headline was enough to make me have to run to the rest room and hurl!
Is anybody compiling the crap coming out of these people's deranged mouths?
General Casey. Mayor Daley. Chris Matthews. BASTARDS!
Hang him for treason!

“General George Casey, the highest ranking officer in the U.S. Army, said that the deaths of 12 soldiers and one civilian at Foot Hood would become a far greater tragedy “if our diversity becomes a casualty.”
Yeah I’m sure the solders were really comforted by this politically correct remark!
“General George Casey, the highest ranking idiot in the U.S. Army”
These are your great Bush Generals. There is no way that we can keep blaming Clinton on these Generals. Bush was in office 8 years and these are his. I bet President Bush is hitting his head at this nonsense saying “I approved of these guys?????”
The man is an idiot.
This guy needs to be fired . . . YESTERDAY!!!!
This statement is the Oscar of Dumb!!
I thought everybody in the Army was supposed to be just one color—green—and just one ethnicity—US Army.
I’m going to puke. I’m so sick of hearing that “diversity is our strength”, does that include the mass murderer demographic?
It's time for you to retire General.....you've outlived your usefullness - if you ever had any.
“ARMY CHIEF-OF-STAFF: “LOSS OF DIVERSITY AT FORT HOOD WOULD BE GREATER TRAGEDY THAN LOSS OF LIFE”
This is why Casey has to go. My father was a very high level Army officer and after over 25 years of service walked away from the military in the 1970’s because this type of person and the PC types were picked for promotion over far better officers that believed in protecting our country and commanding our troops.
Apparently PC has rotted Casey’s brain. All we need now from General Casey is a shout out to our Muslim soldiers.
