“They don’t trust Eric Holder. That’s the bottom line here. They believe Holder is, if not one of them, willing to either tip off the enemy or go after those who fight the enemy.”
I don’t blame them.

“Despite ban, Holder to speak to CAIR-linked group”
“Attorney General Eric Holder has agreed to give a keynote speech later this month to a Michigan group which includes the local branch of the Council on American-Islamic Relations even though the FBI has formally severed contacts with the controversial Muslim civil rights organization...”

Oh my gosh-I’ve seen that card numerous times and didn’t notice the misspelling. Doesn’t the military print them?
It seems a lot of Americans are wondering how they missed warning signs.
Thanks....I should have been more patient....
Sorry, I was going to remove it by putting in a transparent gif in the url, but it would have removed yours too!
A very good idea. Perhaps some at this site with the skill set required and sufficient time could pursue such a mission.
Wait.,...one of the threads says that the Army will do the Hearing...maybe the FBI isn't confident they will do it correctly and legally....
Damn.... who knows why they are playing these damn games.
I believe I read that he is calling for a Senate investigation.
Exactly.......cover up has taken place...reminds me of the impeached one’s presidency...cover up terrorist attacks...like OKCB, Flight TWA shot down by a missile...and here we are again another cover up...by the dimwits....
The link to the background of the calling card is HERE
no- just said that three days after the request he was told “sorry Rep Hoekstra, we don’t have anything we can give you”....he was pissed...
Thanks .. I knew Hoeskstra did that. Insanity
reigns in our federal government.

Officials: Fort Hood Shooter Acted Alone
(CBS/AP) Updated 7:20 a.m. EST
Investigators say the accused shooter at Fort Hood - Major Nidal Malik Hasan - acted alone. CBS News Military Analyst Major Mike Lyons discusses Hasan’s actions and looks into President Obama’s decision to grant Gen. McChrystal additional troops in Afghanistan.
The Army psychiatrist accused of the Fort Hood massacre apparently acted alone and without outside direction, investigative officials said Monday evening, even as the FBI launched an internal review of how it handled information gathered about Hasan nearly a year before the shooting.

Based on investigations since the attack, including a review of that 2008 information, the investigators said they have no evidence that Hasan had help or outside orders in the shootings.

Galligan said Hasan asked for an attorney even though he is on sedatives and his condition is guarded.
“Given his medical condition, that’s the smart move,” Galligan told The Associated Press on Monday night. “Nobody from law enforcement will be questioning him.”
Galligan said both he and Maj. Christopher E. Martin, Fort Hood’s senior defense attorney, met Hasan. Galligan questioned whether Hasan can get a fair trial at Fort Hood, given President Obama’s planned visit to the base on Tuesday and public comments by the post commander, Lt. Gen. Robert Cone. Galligan also said he plans to raise the issue of Hasan’s mental condition.
The most serious charge in military court is premeditated murder, which carries the death penalty.
The Army has not yet appointed a lead prosecutor in the case, said Fort Hood spokesman Tyler Broadway.
Authorities say Hasan fired off more than 100 rounds Thursday at a soldier processing center before civilian police shot him in the torso. He was taken into custody and eventually moved to an Army hospital in San Antonio, where he was in stable condition and able to talk, said Dewey Mitchell, a Brooke Army Medical Center spokesman.
Authorities continue to refer to Hasan, 39, as the only suspect in the shootings, but they won’t say when charges would be filed and have said they have not determined a motive. A spokesman for Army investigators did not immediately respond to calls and e-mails seeking comment Monday.

Authorities say several witnesses heard Maj. Hasan open fire with two weapons, neither of them Army-issued.
One person with knowledge of the weapons said one was a revolver, the other a FN Herstal “Five-seveN”tactical pistol, which one firearms Web site describes as capable of defeating “most body armor in military service around the world today.”
The FN carries 20 rounds per magazine. One witness said he saw Maj. Hasan reload at least once. A medic who treated the major’s injuries said his camouflage cargo pant pockets were full of magazines.
The shots came so rapidly that Pvt. First Class Marquest Smith, who was going over some paperwork in a cubicle in the building, says he first thought he was hearing microwave popcorn.

Thanks. I have to hit the sack for a early work day so do have a great upcoming day. I’ll check out the link then retire.
Sorry.....I’m not buying 1 shooter killed 13 soldiers and wounded another 31...BS
It would not surprise me at all.
I live east of Tampa, Florida and Mac Dill AFB and it would not surprise me in the least to be looking west and think or say, “What is that strange lookimg cloud doing over Tampa.
The enemy within is much more dangerous than foreign enemies.
