Please tell me this man isn't a kook with an axe to grind..please.
That's what bothers me most about this story. So many people on the right have been quick to treat these military sources like the MSM-left treated the Swiftboat Vets.
well let's face it, he does have an axe to grind. he likely feels he had a program that could have been useful to stopping an act of terror, but was thwarted by the "legal" process. I can't comment on the "kook" part, but of course the MSM and the 9-11 committee members (both parties, we shouldn't be naive about that) will demonize him as such.
You can bet Attagate is only the tip of the iceberg as far as what the commission was covering up goes. I'd be willing to bet Able Danger, bad as it is, was the least of it.
So far the only 'dirt' I've heard is something about he was demoted a while back for using his phone for personal things.
He has since been promoted, but I heard that mentioned as an aside... expect the people who want this story to die to sieze on that and say 'hes just trying to get revenge'
Its pretty weak... put himself so out on a limb because of a demotion over something silly, that has since been rendered irrelvant.
Still... give the NYT some time to investigate his kids and pets for a few days...
I just listened to this man on the Mike Savage radio program, he is on the second and third hours.
I was impressed, it was well done and he cares about America.
A real person, with a job that he does, not a glory hog.
My opinion.
