Obama administration defies congressional subpoena on Fort Hood documents
Washington Post Online ^ | 4/27/10 | Craig Whitlock

Posted on 04/28/2010 5:13:35 AM PDT by highlander_UW

The Obama administration said Tuesday it would provide more information to Congress about the Fort Hood shootings but continued to defy a subpoena request for witness statements and other documents.

After days of negotiations, the Pentagon and Justice Department informed a Senate committee that they would not comply with congressional subpoenas to share investigative records from the Nov. 5 shootings at Fort Hood, Tex., which killed 13 people.

The WAshington/Chicago thugocracy must be brought to heel.

The Obama junta is now being tested by freedom loving America. The State of Arizona is now embattled. We must support freedom,our constitution and the State of Arizona in enforcing current laws that the feds will not.

The makings of a civil war are emminant.The Obama Junta will stand down and follow the constitution or it will now invoke race riots in Phoenix.

If the Obama Junta has the resolve of revolutionaries
driven by Alinsky, we indeed will likely have conflict, at least until federal authorities realize that the constitution is not being followed.

God speed the state of Arizona and those patriots in Congress who love freedom and the constitution. The rest are worse than thugs.

Obama is hiding details about the Fort Hood shootings that do not fit with the politically correct image he wants about Muslims.Muslims are a threat to our nation and the Obama junta wants to fool us on order to weaken us.

From the article (from 2008)you posted:

“Both Obama and the American public should be very careful of what they wish for. As the horrible example of Obama’s father shows, there is nothing worse for an embittered outsider manipulating the system from within than to achieve his goals - and nothing can be more terrible for the system. Even those who despise America for its blunders of the past few years should ask themselves whether the world will be a safer place if America retreats into a self-pitying shell”

I would entirely agree with you except for the fact that security is not what this is about. When Bush was President there were leaks all over the place and the media didn’t have any problem printing them. Now all of a sudden nothing? Also the fact that this guy is tied to Obams (being part of his transition team) makes their stonewalling highly suspect.

Same place they've been since the election campaign began with bambi in the race.

In the military, anyone above the rank of of O-4 is likely to be a politician. Certainly any flag officer with more than 2-stars.

[Obama] signed into law a measure...that designated Sept. 11 as a National Day of Service

In other words, nihilistic liberals are planning to drain 9/11 of all meaning.

Congress controls the military. If Obama doesn’t cooperate, they should simply open their own investigation and call in all witnesses and start a square one inquiry.

They do? So, would Harry Reid or Nancy Pelosi be the COMMANDER IN CHIEF? Or is it one of those things where all 535 members of Congress takes turns? I don't know because when I walk through the various buildings on base, the top picture is POTUS.

And it's weird because these civilian dudes like SecDef and stuff are in the cabinet of POTUS.

Read the constitution. The president is the commander in chief, but Congress has power to REGULATE the military. It’s right in there under powers of Congress.

In other words, they have power to make and enforce US military REGULATIONS.

Yet another example of transparancy by the Obama regime.

The most race-centric/racist administration since Hitler's Germany.

Who do they think they are protecting by denying this information? Certainly not our troops, and certainly not the American people.

They are on record as supporting and protecting Islamo-fascism and terrorism.

America’s muslum in chief is covering up his terrorist pals once again. I hope the complete idiots that helped elect him are waking up.

And those that still support him are planning to leave the country.

They can bring in the third branch to mediate. As I recall, that’s what it took to make Nixon release the (edited by Woods) Watergate tapes.
