Muslim leader had troubling talks with suspect
MyWay News "Osman Danquah, co-founder of the Islamic Community of Greater Killeen, said he was disturbed by Maj. Nidal Malik Hasan's persistent questioning and recommended the mosque reject Hasan's request to become a lay Muslim leader at the sprawling Army post."
Fort Hood: A now familiar horror story.
By Victor Davis Hanson "The more a Palestinian imam promises us our death, the more the Iranian president promises a world without America, the more these al Qaedists, like the most recent keystone clowns at Fort Dix, do their small part in trying to reify such mad rhetoric, and the more the sophisticated apologists assure us that we, not they, are the real threat, the more likely the sofa-sitting, channel-surfing American will some day very soon blow up, rather than be blown up."
Ft Hood mosque member defends shootings: "they were troops who were going to Afghanistan and Iraq to kill Muslims. I honestly have no pity for them."
JAWA Report "What are your thoughts towards those that were victims in this?" Duane : "They were, in the end, they were troops who were going to Afghanistan and Iraq to kill Muslims. I honestly have no pity for them. It's just like the majority of the people that will hear this, after five or six minutes they'll be shocked, after that they'll forget about them and go on their day."
Charles Krauthammer : The Myth of '08, Demolished
Townhall "A uniquely charismatic candidate was running at a time of deep war weariness, with an intensely unpopular Republican president, against a politically incompetent opponent, amid the greatest financial collapse since the Great Depression. And still he won by only seven points."
Obama's 'Delayed Empathy' over Fort Hood Massacre
Rick Moran "The crew of the space shuttle Challenger honored us by the manner in which they lived their lives. We will never forget them, nor the last time we saw them, this morning, as they prepared for their journey and waved goodbye and "slipped the surly bonds of earth" to "touch the face of God."At bottom, the speech told us that [President Reagan] understood our distress, but insisted that the highest honor we could pay the dead is to continue their work. That is leadership. Obama? Not so much.
Doctors recommending ObamaCare?
American Thinker "I continue to be perplexed at the short-term focus of the AMA on this issue - over which they are willing to swallow hook, line and sinker the rest of the Pelosi bill,' Cornyn said. 'The Pelosi bill not only fails to include common-sense medical liability reform for physicians, but it includes a new government program that will have all the same problems we've seen with Medicare.'"
Analyze This
American Thinker "Hasan left a trail of hate (that is beginning to come out) and everyone looked the other way. He set out to kill as many innocents as he could and succeeded. He screamed Allahu Akbar! (God is great!) during his carnage. There is a crazy man in Iran who has a trail of hate and threatens to blow Israel off the map in the name of Allahu Akbar (while everyone pretends not to hear him). His name is Ahmadinejad and he is not even a psychiatrist."
Muslim Veterans Group Says No Reports of Harassment of Islamic Soldiers
Fox News "Abdul-Rashid Abdullah, deputy director of the American Muslim Armed Forces and Veterans Affairs Council, told FoxNews.com that the nonprofit group has not received a single report recently of a U.S. soldier being harassed "simply because he was Muslim.""
IT’S OKAY, HE’S NOT A REPUBLICAN:
Pajamas Media "Barney Frank Present During Pot Bust. “Congressman Barney Frank was present during a marijuana arrest at James Ready’s home in Ogunquit, Maine. Ready is well-known for his relationship with Congressman Frank.” Now if this were Sarah Palin’s ex-stepcousin-in-law it would be real news . . . "
Into the Teeth of Public Opinion
Powerline "Our assumption has always been that the House Democratic leadership can pass anything they want, discipline in that body being what it is, and that the real chance of stopping a government takeover of health care is in the Senate. I still think that's probably true, but the rebellion of House Democrats is heartening. As NRCC spokesman Ken Spain put it, "If this bill is the political winner Nancy Pelosi claims it is, then why are Democrats fighting over who gets to vote against it?""
Major Muslim Hasan "harangued the doctors and staff about what the Quran taught about non-believers going to hell, being scalded, beheaded"
Atlas Shrugs "Normally, a lecturer focuses on a particular disease or disorder and recent research or treatment options. Instead, Hasan reportedly harangued the doctors and staff about what the Quran taught about non-believers going to hell, being scalded, beheaded, etc. A Muslim psychiatrist in the audience reportedly challenged him about his interpretation of the Quran, but he would not back down ...several in the audience suggested afterward that Hasan might be a shooter someday."
A president who doesn't take photographers
AP Texas News "Former President George W. Bush and his wife, Laura, visited wounded soldiers and their families near the site of the worst mass shooting on an Army post in the United States. The Bushes made their private visit to Fort Hood's Darnall Army Medical Center on Friday night."
Survivors Say Fort Hood Gunman Shot the Wounded Again
ABC News ""I started crawling, I called 911 with my phone to my side... and I turned back and looked at him. He was about two body lengths away from me, longways, shooting people on the ground still. So I was just waiting to get shot in the back," she said. Bono instead made it to a cubicle and around the corner out of sight where a sergeant and other soldiers were hiding."
It's a 'Christmas' tree at the Ky. Capitol again
Google News "Spokeswoman Kerri Richardson says the administration received a steady stream of e-mails and phone calls about the "holiday" tree. She says it's always been a Christmas tree to the governor, and it will be this year, too." It's that time again.
