Rep Weldon to give major House Floor speech on Able Danger momentarily; ON CSPAN NOW
CSPAN ^ | October 19, 2005

Posted on 10/19/2005 4:59:18 PM PDT by TomGuy

Rep. Kirt Weldon is on Michael Savage's radio program, and he is implying Rumsfeld is the one blocking further investigation into Able Danger.

Weldon is fuming; says he personally (in a committee hearing) asked Rumsfeld about the investigation being blocked. Rumsfeld replied that he would 'get back to Weldon with a response.' Weldon says he still has gotten nothing from Rumsfeld.

Weldon to give a speech in a few moments this evening on the floor of the House. It should be aired on CSPAN this evening.

"What's depressing is that the man is saying something so important and nobody is listening (except for us)."

+ 8 million Savage listeners

No one there in the chambers to hear one of the most important floor speeches ever given in those hallowed halls. They must be exhausted from the Cheeseburger Hearings this morning. POS all of them

Apparently, the defense department holds Shafer in check by using economic threats. Perhaps someone should fund him so that he can resign and start talking.

For instance, I bet a forward on a book contract could keep him in beans for years.

Let's put our heads together and see if there isn't a source of money which could insulate him from their threats.

I think the pens from the US Govt were marked "property of the United States Govt." Then apparently, the feds accused Tony Schaffer of having their pens in his possession. What a sleazy and childish way to set someone up who risked his life in Afghanistan.

Whomever sent him that box, what a bunch of idiots. They tried to entrap Tony Schaeffer imo, thinking that he was the only one. He wasn't a lone whistleblower after all. Some bodies at DIA are nothing but stupid felons.

"Curt Weldon is a great man"

That is the unvarnished truth. He's in the history books now.

It will be in the Congressional Record eventually but the site requires some tricky navigation. You almost have to know exactly what you're looking for as even the searching the name Weldon and the date doesn't get you there.

"They were screaming not to let the Cole pull into Yemen."

That's the icing on the cake!

As long as I live I will never forget that vile creature who used to be President.......tell a father whose son died on the USS Cole that he would find the people who killed his son.

The day of the memorial for the USS Cole I just sat there and cried the entire day.

And to know that not only were the men on the ship standing watch....unarmed....they were forewarned and sent to their slaughter.
