The Senate Armed Services Committee postponed its Monday briefing on the deadly Fort Hood massacre at the request of the White House -- despite calls from some lawmakers to press forward with a congressional investigation into the shooting rampage that killed 13 and wounded 29.
The Senate Armed Services Committee postponed its Monday briefing on the deadly Fort Hood massacre at the behest of the White House, despite calls from some lawmakers to press forward with a congressional investigation into the shooting rampage that killed 13 and wounded 29.
An aide to committee chairman Sen. Carl Levin, D-Mich., told Fox News that the meeting is delayed "at the request of the administration." Army Secretary John McHugh and Army Chief of Staff Gen George Casey were to have briefed committee members privately on the shooting.
Army psychiatrist Maj. Nidal Malik Hasan was charged on Thursday with the deadly shooting spree. Army investigators have said Hasan is the only suspect and could face additional charges.
Obama already had ordered a review of all intelligence related to Hasan and whether the information was properly shared and acted upon within government agencies. Several members of Congress, particularly Rep. Peter Hoekstra, the top Republican on the House Intelligence Committee, have also called for a full examination of what agencies knew about Hasan's contacts with a radical Muslim cleric in Yemen and others of concern to the U.S.
Hoekstra confirmed this week that government officials knew of about 10 to 20 e-mails between Hasan and Anwar al-Aulaqi, beginning in December 2008.

No. Allowing the mastermind terrorist responsible for the slaughter of thousands of innocent Americans in the name of Jihad to have his day in an American civilian courtroom would be 'political theatre' and a travesty.
More political correctness....great.....
This is B.S.! Obama, that worthless POS, should be impeached for interfering with an official investigation!
The Minority of a committee may hold hearings, and even hold them at Ft Hood or down the block. Recall Conyers?
Of course, it is hard to sweep an elephant under the carpet if peoples eyes are focused on it.. they trust Americans have as short a memory on this issue as they seem to have at election time
I hope our military refuse to cooperate in this show-trial against them.
0bama and his thugs haven't had enough time to cover their tracks on this muzzie terrorist that served on his transition team?
This is only permitted for hurricanes during Republican administrations.
Yes. I believe the term is "obstruction of justice", which is certainly an impeachable offense.
And I suppose there hasn’t been a wimper from the Republicans? They are letting him rule by dictate.

Cowards! Zero doesn’t want another of his muzzie brothers investigated.
The only transparent thing about Obama.
What?!! The DOD may not be investigating this domestic terror attack??!!
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."
Yeah, shut up. We're trying to do a cover-up here. You know how quickly people forget.... shhhhhhhh.......
Another Able Danger type screw-up??
The Senate Armed Services Committee postponed its Monday briefing on the deadly Fort Hood massacre at the behest of the White House, despite calls from some lawmakers to press forward with a congressional investigation into the shooting rampage that killed 13 and wounded 29.
And don't forget that the Democrats control both houses of the legislature with commanding margins and the White House. The Republicans can't do anything.
This is obstruction of justice, not a friendly request of the Congress.
I call on members to go "rogue" and keep digging independently for information and background on this shooter, and disregard the White House and its all too obvious efforts to keep it PC-managed and damage-limited.
