Senators Accuse Obama Administration of Stonewalling Ft. Hood Probe
Newsweek ^ | 4/16/10 | Mark Hosenball

Leaders of the Senate’s principal oversight committee are accusing the Obama administration of stonewalling an investigation they have been conducting into the background to the deadly shootings at the Ft. Hood military base last Nov. 5, for which Army psychiatrist Maj. Nidal Hasan was arrested and charged.

Sen. Joseph Lieberman, the independent Democrat from Connecticut who chairs the Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee, and the panel’s ranking Republican, Sen. Susan Collins of Maine, are expected on Thursday to release correspondence with the administration requesting documents and witnesses who have information about how Defense and law- enforcement agencies, including the FBI, handled information about Hasan’s alleged erratic behavior and contacts with an Islamic extremist preacher in the months before his shooting rampage. The senators are expected to declare that unless the administration complies with their committee’s request for documentation and witnesses by next Monday (April 19), the committee will issue a subpoena to force the administration to turn over the evidence.

Give me a break!!!!! This shooting occurred November 5th, and I don’t care what condition the shooter ended up in because the government is just dragging its heels over protecting this Islamofascist! It’s nearly 6 months yet where’s the justice. Where’s the justice for the people who were murdered in cold blood, for the dozens wounded and for the honor of the U.S. Military and dependents! This is a travesty, and that Bozo in the White House is nothing but Nero fiddling while the country burns.

Lieberman and Collins complained that they had been trying for more than three months to persuade the Pentagon to cooperate with their Ft. Hood investigation.

Gee whiz, can't imagine what the hold up might be. But then some of us have been waiting for a couple years to get our leaders to cooperate and investigate the usurper's background.

Hasan case gets worse: There’s proof he was an adviser to Obama‘s Homeland Security Task Force!
The Islamist murderer who killed 12 soldiers one civilian and wounded another 38
soldiers at Fort Hood’s Readiness Center was an adviser to Obama’s Homeland Security
Task Force according to Jerome Corsi’s new bombshell report.

In part it reads: “The Homeland Security Policy Institute at George Washington
University published a document May 19, entitled “Thinking Anew – Security Priorities
for the Next Administration: Proceedings Report of the HSPI Presidential Transition
Task Force, April 2008 – January 2009,” in which Hasan of the Uniformed Services
University School of Medicine is listed on page 29 of the document as a Task Force
Event Participant” and “Daniel Kaniewski, deputy director of the Homeland Security
Policy Institute at George Washington University, affirmed …. that the Nidal Hasan
listed as attending the meetings of the HSPI Presidential Transition Task Force was the
same person as the alleged shooter in the Fort Hood massacre.”

According to other published reports Major Nidal Malik Hasan was already “on the
radar” when he was offering Homeland Security advice on how to “keep America safe”
from people like him.


“Maj. Malik Nidal Hasan … served on the Homeland Security Policy Institute’s
Presidential transition task force between April 2008 and January 2009
when Barack Obama was inaugurated as the nation’s 44th president.”


"Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction.
We didn't pass it to our children in the bloodstream.
It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same,
or one day we will spend our sunset years telling our children
and our children's children what it was once like in the United States where men were free.
"
President Ronald Reagan

Power corrupts and absolute power corrupts absolutely.

WE ARE WITNESS TO THIS. ARE WE TO BE HOHUM? OR DO WE PRESS FOR TRUTH? AND CALL FOR ACTION?

God help us in our day, in Jesus name. amen.

Because obama, hasan and many other mohammedans have a deep hatred for Americans.

They hate all of us, and would prefer to see us either enslaved or dead.

That is what these rat bastards want.

Obozo is not fiddling. He is running around igniting even more fires.

The administration doesn't want a true investigation because it will show how many other Muslims are placed around in strategic places in our military. That will force them to do something and that may inflame their fellow terrorists.

Hisham Kamal, IBM Corp’n, is also a Muslim. Maybe, in this sea of diversity, he should be checked out.

Talking about moles!
