		<description><![CDATA[Great points Steve, your comments always engage our minds. 

Won&#039;t touch all points, but your #2, about the dishonesty and political posturing of this administration (and the Clintons). We&#039;ve seen it recently being replayed over Benghazi, as they tried to create a smoke screen to cover their security failings by attributing the obvious terror attack to spontaneous protests over the Innocence of Muslims clip. 

But how about this admin calling the Fort Hood massacre a case of &quot;workplace violence.&quot;  Again an obvious effort to cover a terrible failure! Red flags had been flying high over Hasan for a very long time. The contact of this murderer with a dangerous terrorist along with other irregularities should have caused preventative action that never came... 

A case of &quot;political correctness&quot;? I think it must have been more than that and without the facts I don&#039;t want to pounce on every failing. We can&#039;t prosecute people before a crime is committed so the investigators may have been waiting for him to cross a particular line, to construct a bomb or something, that would produce evidence for prosecution. Done!

I also agree this was a touchy situation and that no one would want to trigger a negative event with someone they suspected had become volatile. Then again perhaps someone thought they should leave Hasan in place so that they might use him to track al-Awlaki? We will never know. What we do know is that mistakes in judgment were made and good people were murdered, and to make it worse this administration attempted to defuse the obvious for whatever questionable reasons. 

Just this morning I caught a YouTube where some of the surviving shooting victims of the Fort Hood Islamic terror attack speak out about the brutal murder of 13 of their comrades plus sadly one unborn, to the shouts of Allahu Akbar! I&#039;m glad I took the time to watch and listen to these victims, these men and women deserve this voice. (link below)
