Obama asks Congress To Wait On Fort Hood
Let investigators wrap up, he urges as some lawmakers seek hearings
Nov. 14: In his weekly video and Internet address, President Obama talks about the Fort Hood investigation, telling lawmakers to "resist the temptation to turn this tragic event into the political theater."
WASHINGTON - President Barack Obama on Saturday urged Congress to hold off on any investigation of the Fort Hood rampage until federal law enforcement and military authorities have completed their probes into the shootings at the Texas Army post, which left 13 people dead.
On an eight-day Asia trip, Obama turned his attention home and pleaded for lawmakers to "resist the temptation to turn this tragic event into the political theater." He said those who died on the nation's largest Army post deserve justice, not political stagecraft.
"The stakes are far too high," Obama said in a video and Internet address released by the White House while the president he was flying from Tokyo to Singapore, where Pacific Rim countries were meeting.

it wasn’t a tragedy! It was a massacre. What a hypocrite -as if he doesn’t intend for the KSM trials in NY to be political theatre of the most extreme kind.
Obama’s getting a clue - that this was caused by liberal PC bulls-it... He’ll put the kabosh ont this investigation if it’s going to yield the truth.

“Uh,...uh,...uh,...as you know, I, ...uh, am the first black muslim President. If you, uh, uh, uh,...uh,...know what’s good for you, uh...you will just uh, drop this uh whole thing,...because one phone call from me to my uh, uh, uh, jihadist cell here in DC and I can have your uh, uh, uh whole family killed. So, uh, remember that. I am the ruler of the world and my, uh, big, fat assed wife is the Queen, and we, uh can have you killed any time we, uh, want. A shout out to Hasan,...nice work my brother!! Allah Barack!”
“Resist the temptation to turn this tragic event into the political theater” — says the man whose Chief of Staff said “You never want a serious crisis to go to waste.”
The obamatons are scared to death...they wont allow this to be a terror attack..as it then becomes the first attack since 9/11....
On Obama’s watch...
Yaeh...they are hiding something big time...and need to time to get people’s mind right..on what they witnessed...
By the time they are done Hasan will be a right wing conservative who listens to Beck and watches Fox news...
Only then will the “investigation” begin....
But..in all seriousness...
They are trying to put the smoke back in the bottle....the net is so fast they cant counter it like they could control print and TV media...
We knew within minutes that it was clearly a terror attack...obama is still in denial...
How about you act like the Commander-in-Chief and not the wimpy President of the world, you twerp?
2010 is the year to put a stop to this!
Wait for what, another Ft. Hood terrorist act?
Need time to shred the evidence that links O with hasan.
>>it wasn’t a tragedy! It was a massacre.
Hasan committed an atrocity. The US Army brass enabling people like him is the tragedy. Military commanders like that are not worthy of the men and women they lead.
Yup, first terror attack since 2001 on US soil (actually there have been 2 or 3 this year, no?....but this being the biggie).
The masses are still brain dead on this. My Mother, God love her, asked me in all seriousness “is he a terrorist?”. She gets all her news from CNN.
Wouldn't want to upstage the clown circus in the administration, eh? (no offense meant to real working clowns).
Hiding something? You mean like the fact that the Muslim terrorist was on the Obamunist’s transition team?
This rubber-stamp congress will do what the dictator says: “Wait until people forget about Fort Hood, else my fellow Muslims might get hurt.”.
