Top Republican says White House hiding info on Fort Hood (Among other things...)
The Hill ^ | 11-11-09 | Eric Zimmermann

The ranking Republican on the House intelligence committee on Tuesday night accused the White House of withholding information on the Fort Hood attack.

Rep. Pete Hoekstra (Mich.) said administration officials delayed briefing members of Congress about the alleged gunman, raising "red flags" about what the White House was hiding.

"When they withhold information, you always start asking questions," Hoekstra told Fox News. "That's what raises red flags. What do they know that they don't want us to know?"

Hoekstra linked President Barack Obama's handling of Fort Hood to a chain of other GOP criticisms of the president, including the administration's treatment of detainees and an investigation into possible CIA abuse.

"It is a political correctness that is

"But I highly doubt DHS could take time out of their busy schedule of monitoring returning vets, pro-lifers, NRA members, conservatives, libertarians, etc... to bother with going after the real enemies."

Don't forget that mothers and children who wave American flags at peaceful Tea Party Protests are also on the "terrorist" watchlist over at the DHS and FBI.

I am so happy that these imbeciles and thugs are about to take over our medical programs.

“What did Obama know - and when did he know it!?”

Yeah, let’s get FRed in on this, he’ll find out the answer to that very question!

Seriously, this is all too weird. 0bama is afraid here. I’ll bet dollars to doughnuts, there is a connection, like a photograph, perhaps with some nice words written on it from 0bama to Hasan, the fatigue wearing, muzzie terrorist.

Pete Hoekstra is top shelf. He's one of the “Gang of Eight” on the intelligence committee and is privy to information on matters such as this long before others in Congress are briefed. Remember he was at the forefront of the whole “Pelosi vs. the CIA briefings” flap. If he's got concerns, he has my attention!

Just him being on that committee is goofy. They already had a history of the guy making anti-American statements, not supporting our troops, wanting us out of the Middle East, his love of islam, known correspondance with terrorists.... um, wait, who was I talking about again - Obama or Hasam?

"This guy basically stood on a chair and yelled that he was "Keen on Allah" and started spraying people with bullets."

According to ABC News Radio, Hasan had business cards that said "Soldier of Allah". I kid you not. Sadly.

We the taxpayer paid Hasan(bacon bacon bacon) 90 grand a year and he sent it to Pakistan. Hmmm. His apartment cost a mere 300 a month and looked as if no one lived there since he sent most his money to other terrorists.

Zero on Hasan “we must not jump to conclusions”.

Zero on the Cambridge Police Dept “Athough I don’t know the facts...They acted stupidly.” Gee that sounds like a jump to a conclusion.

F the muslims.
Free the Longform.
“Kenyan-born Obama to Become Illinois Senator”(headline from newspaper after senatorial race).
The Usurper. B.Hussein “my muslim faith” Obama.

Arg. America is too PC to survive.
