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.

We need to pray for Congressman Weldon and Maj. Gen. Schaeffer.

I fear for them.

I missed it ... what happen?

I could not do this justice. You may want to read a bit of the thread. How do we fight our own government, and why should we have to. That it the only whiff of Viet Nam theat exists her, and I don't ever want that again.

I'm glad to see this thread is so active. Reminds me of the early years of FR.

If that isn't the number for Congress, why do they put calls through or why don't they say something? I called the number earlier this month and they say capitol switchboard.

Ive decided that most conspiracies aren't the result of malevolent intent, they're mostly the result of stupidity, embarrassment, and a wish to hide failure.

"Weldon said he couldn't give the name in public, but would gladly tell any of his House colleagues in private. He said once they hear the name of the person, they would agree that the person has impeccable credentials and is believable."

I tuned in Savage late, heard this on live feed. Unbelievable! It's all breaking wide open!

Representative Weldon just declared war on Clinton. It seems like Freeh is supporting his efforts.

The deal with the pens was he took them when his father worked at an embassy and gave them to other students at the school. He put this info on his security clearance application, possibly because it may have existed on paper elsewhere. Who the heck was even tracking them in those days?

I agree. They both need our prayers. But, may I ask you a question? Are you finding yourself just really confused lately on just who needs prayer and what kind of prayer they need? And who seems to be walking in God's obedience and who seems to be out of God's will?
