“If we’re talking about the larger issue of mohammedans in the military,”

I am not.

I am talking more specifically about the culture of political correctness that allowe those surrounding Hasan to be “more” afraid of the accusation of racism, than being afraid of the danger of having him within the military.

” Keep in mind, we were embarking on two campaigns against terror states and the war plan called for the cooperation of mohammedan opposition to those respective governments.”

That is true - so there is that line you walk. You want to recognize the universal battle for freedom among “all” peoples, while you simultaneously are at war with islamofascism.
And so - how do you decipher who is an islamofascist?
Clearly - Hasan made his stance very clear to those around him.

“Just give me an example of something that should have been done. Something that Bush failed to do that might have prevented Hasan’s rampage.”

Chances are very high Bush never heard of the man.
I am wondering where the culture of PC came from - that Hasan’s peers and superiors were “more” afraid of violating PC rules than they were of the obvious danger he posed.

So - 8 years after 9/11, we couldn’t connect the dots within our own military?
Really?

Why?

Because our institutions have been infected with this cancer to an extent that even those of us who have been aware of it never realized. We allowed a jihadist to counsel veterans returning from a war against jihaists. Admittedly, that's beyond insane. It's a sign of a seriously suicidal nation.

I just know that much of this madness was beyond Bush's control. Trying to change these institutions is like trying to turn a cruise ship around on a dime. It has to be done slowly, methodically... the same way they were conquered by the left.

If I have to fault Bush with anything, it's that he didn't understand the purely satanic influence over the modern Democrat party. He believed they were all Americans acting in the best interest of the country and that they could be worked with. He was wrong. They were, and are, evil incarnate.

So, no, he wasn't perfect. But that's a far cry from pinning the blame for Hasan on him. He underestimated the left and the extent of how truly evil they really are. But he was a genuinely decent man who loves this country, which makes him the antithesis of 0bama... so I see no good reason to be consistent and attack them with an even hand. Bush deserves some benefit of the doubt. 0bama does not.
