I have no confidence in the Army’s investigation
Fox News reports on Secretary of Defense Robert Gates naming lead panelists to investigate the events leading up to the Fort Hood massacre to see if they can find a way to prevent a repeat of the incident;
Army Secretary Togo West and former chief of naval operations Adm. Vernon Clark will head the 45-day review.
“The shootings at Fort Hood raise a number of troubling questions that demand complete but prompt answers,” Gates told a Pentagon news conference. He said the review would seek to ensure the health and safety of military members and their families.
Yeah, I really don’t think DoD is interested in the facts. I get the impression that the military is more interested in covering up than investigating. Why? Well, someday I’ll tell you – let’s just say that investigators thus far have been more interested in ancillary bullshit than the facts of the murders.

Over half of the investigators on this had parents that were first cousins or siblings. That’s what I heard anyway. But haven’t met any of them so don’t know for sure.
Prediction of investigation results:
Poor Hasan was treated badly by his peers so he was mentally tortured into embracing a self-perverted version of the peace-loving religion of his parents. The attack was criminal, not terroristic, and it was perpetrated by a deranged individual acting alone. Case closed.
That pretty much sum it up?
Claymore, you forgot to add that he was persecuted by some angry, racist, lifer bloggers – that’s the way it’s shaking out this week.
Well, I thought that had already been established…that and the chick at Great Clips did a real number on that cue ball head of his. I mean seriously Major Wackjob, what did you expect for a $9 haircut?
Well, Claymore, he was expecting her to marry him.
Talk about unrealistic expectations. The freak’s eyebrows were already encroaching into eyelid territory as it was while his hair was retreating faster than a Code Pink member threatened with can of deodorant and a bottle of Summer’s Eve.
Weasel Gates is the first clue to a coverup.

I’m with you on this – sadly
I just figured what drove him to do this. Hats. His hat drew attention to his eyebrows and he went insane.
Where is Eric the Hat when we need him? He could fix morale with a spiffy new Army hat.
Close, BNG. He found out that he looked like shite in a beret, and Eric wouldn’t take his calls about going to something like a baseball cap.
Hmmmm they didn’t listen to the emails, arguments, treasonous statements, personnel reports and concerns the first time around … the only thing for them to do is ‘cover up’
It’s a good thing “Maj” Ass-han didn’t get a hair trim at Bikini Cuts! He would have REALLY gone bug nuts with all those half-clad women strutting their stuff around his muzzie eyeballs, their images soaking into his muzzie-raised brain. . . . .
But then again, maybe he DID get a haircut there. . . . . .
I hope that the Army ‘Investigators’ remember that it was the Army mouth piece that outright referred to the alleged shooter as being dead. D.E.A.D.
And the media sluts need to be extra special triple super duper sure before they link something like this ‘event’/’incident’/(TERRORIST ATTACK)to jihadi values, but they sprinted past the finish line with the ‘news’ that the guy was dead. D.E.A.D.
They need to find someone to remove the panties betwixt their cheeks about Teh Evil Blogger and that there highly improper blog posting and focus on the actual attack.
It seems kinda obvious that politics are at play here. And maybe that is inevitable and something that will never go away. But WTF about the actual human beings on bases/posts that have to wonder if investigators are merely gathering political capital or sincerely looking to protect us and our spouses from something like this happening again?
Seriously, what the fuck.
Well, I’m having trouble finding much humor in this situation. The diversity bullies are in full array, and thumping their chests.
Not news here but a reminder: http://blogs.reuters.com/frontrow/2009/11/08/general-casey-diversity-shouldnt-be-casualty-of-fort-hood/
Essentially The Army is not willing to consider that the PC agenda played any roll in these killings.
Nope… a whole lot of silly, maybe, but not very funny at that.
Trust me Pons, in a few days or weeks you will get the full effect of how little humor we take in it as well. Just trust me.
Let’s see here…
Muslim blows up Marine barracks in Beirut
Muslim blows up Khobar Towers
Muslims try to blow up World trade center
Muslims try to blow up USS Cole
Muslim bombs disco in Germany
Muslims go on shooting rampage in DC
Muslims tries to blow up airliner with shoe
Muslims destroy World Trade Center
Muslims attack Pentagon
Muslim shoots two US soldiers outside recruiting station
Muslim US Soldier frags officers on eve of Iraq invasion
Muslim US officer attacks and kills 14 people on US Army Base
Yup… no pattern here. Nope. Nada. Zip.
Just a bunch of unrelated man-caused catastrophes, or something like that. I’m sure that the AG will have his top men working on it right away. Yup. Top men. Right away.
Sigh…….

Well, two things in response.
I do trust you, you have (at least) a valuable perspective.
However, we may well be nearing an abyss that will be profound. My apologies for the melodramatic image. Just did a post: http://anothervoice.1776redux.com/2009/11/20/a-good-idea-badly-implemented/
And with a former CNO who was about as much good as tits on a boar hog and balls on a priest……….What could possibly go wrong? How about everything.
