Is this just a "kinder gentler" wasy of saying that Obammie ordered the Chief of Staff of the Army and the Secretary of the Army not to testify to Congress? Sounds like it to me.
The hearings for the Armed Services commmittee have been postponed, but Lieberman’s committee is going full speed ahead. The difference between Levine and Lieberman where it comes to our military.
I don’t much like Lieberman at all, but on THIS one, he is right. Below is from the article:
“Defense Secretary Robert Gates, speaking to reporters aboard his plane last week, said all those privy to details on the ongoing investigation into the shooting ‘should just shut up.’”
“But Sen. Joe Lieberman, ID-Conn., chairman of the Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee, said he will proceed with his committee’s investigation into the shooting, saying Obama did not indicate on Saturday that it should push back Thursday’s scheduled testimony.”
“’We saw nothing in the president’s transcript from Saturday that asked Congress to hold back,’ an aide speaking on condition of anonymity told Fox News.”
“’We very much agree with President Obama’s sentiments that the full story behind the murderous act at Fort Hood must be told,” Lieberman along with Maine Sen. Susan Collins, the ranking Republican on the committee, said in a joint statement over the weekend. “Our goal, and the purpose of this inquiry, is to make as certain as possible that no such attack ever occurs again on an American military base. We will focus on national and homeland security and will not compromise the criminal case being conducted by law enforcement.’”
To which I say, Mr. Gates, you have shown yourself to be less than valuable to our Troops, and of IMMENSE value to the traitor in chief. Therefore, I don’t trust a damn thing you have to say, so how dare you tell anyone to “just shut up?”
How’s this? YOU just shut up. And do something to make your lowlife existence mean something more than being a worn out tire tread on the obamabus as it rolls over our Troops.
