Thanks for the reminder. I keep forgetting that little, but very important fact.
On the plus side. even though I am not a believer in zero-tolerance, Lieberman has it right in this snippet:
“If Hasan was showing signs, saying to people that he had become an Islamist extremist, the U.S. Army has to have zero tolerance,” Lieberman, an independent from Connecticut, said on “Fox News Sunday.” ‘’He should have been gone.”

Would the Army have tolerated, as an officer, a member of Christian Identity, who advocated race war? He would have been tossed out within 24 hours of the info getting to the Commanding Officer. But we tolerate jihadis.
