Alas, Gates sacked the top guys, the junior officers were scared witless and gave Hasan ratings he didn't deserve, and the rest is history.
So, were you referring to Gates or to Goober? A good case can be made with either one that "they" are part of the Taliban counteroffensive on the domestic front and cannot be trusted.
I wonder when anyone will examine those reporters who probably worked arm-in-arm Hasan.......
hey, I don’t think official “journalistic ethics” (I know, an oxymoron if every there was one) requires protecting a “source” who is a mass murderer???
Supposedly a journalist is not obligated to protect a source who lies, who perpetrates a fraud on the public, and certainly not one who goes on to commit mass murder......
Need to turn up the heat on WaPo, demanding that the public be informed in all details of any contact between WaPo reporters and Hasan, any so-called “information” he may have provided etc.
let’s all look at this: IF indeed the WaPo reporters had any contact at all with Hasan, they are now part of the sordid STORY of Hasan slithering through Walter Reed and then getting posted to Ft. Hood..... “what did those reporters know and when did they know it??” did they have any knowledge of his jihad beliefs? hard to belief he would have left them out of it if he was giving depraved lectures within professional medical settings........
WaPo and its reporters must be publicly bludgeoned to either ‘fess up with all details on Hasan, or else to swear up and down that they are see no evil, hear no evil, speak no evil..... and then the slightest evidence of their contacts with Hasan would blow up in their lying faces.
