Seriously? Still? Why is it you are still going on about things I haven’t done to deflect from the things you have done? It’s sad you think you’re making some kind of strong argument here.

You mean why am I not jumping to conclusions like you are in order to spread a political view point?

“It is not that hard but you will do whatever you can to defend this guy. truly amazing.”

Pointing out your lack of verifiable information to base your assumption and speculation on is defending Hasan? It’s a shame your argument has to stoop to that level in order to deflect from your own faulty reasoning in this case.

In any event, it is obvious that officers are saying that this was a problem and why he was not reported.

You keep saying that it is opinion. If these people did not report it because they were worried about PC then that was the reason. How do you know that thses are even the people’s opinions? They could be stating what they know to have been told to them. One guy asked why he was in the Army and PC squelched any opportunity. He was there. He knows what reasons were given for not being able to confront the issue. He knows what he was told and if he felt that this was the reason then it satisfies the issue. Officers did not report him because they were worried about PC.

It is not that hard but you will do whatever you can to defend this guy. truly amazing. Perhaps instead of worrying about jumping to conclusions with this guy you should look back at all the conclusions you jumped to when Bush was in office (or ask if Barry jumped in the Cambridge police case). Where were you on that one. Oh yeah, socialists like Barry can’t jump to conclusions.

I think you even defended him…

I do not believe these guys are speculating. It is a good bet that LTC Finnell was told this by the people he said were worried.

Why are you so hard headed about this? Why are you giving Hasan every beneift of the doubt despite people who are saying that it was about PC? You jumped right on board the Bush lied about WMD wagon even though every major intelligence agency in the world said they were there. You ignored that and then went to the Downing Street memo which was inconclusive and taken out of context. You never gave Bush the beneift you are giving Hasan.

Why do you suppose that is.

Adam, once again what names would you consider sexist toward a male? Answer the question. You said nothing cited compares (once again the Adam rules) so tell me.

Don’t you think it is difficult for a male to be sexist to another male? You know, like a black guy is not a racist for using the N word but I would be…

I am demenaing to the (so called) men I disagree with. The words I use you say are not sexist but if I demena a woman then it is sexist.

The words are meant to be demenaing like when your ilk misuses a word for tea party participants. That might just be sexism. Or when you all say Palin’s kid is not hers or that her husband raped his daughters, all sexist acts. Where were you when this was going on?

Oh yeah, it is OK when your side does it. When you defend equally then you will have credibility (though that does not mean you get to decide what is and what is not sexist or racist). I defended Hillary when she was treated badly. You guys allowed Palin to be attacked. Where were the NAGs (National Associalstion of Gals) on this one? Why were they not out defending Palin? Oh yeah, like you they only believe that non liberals can be sexists.

Lt. Col. Val Finnell is not admitting he could have reported Hasan and didn’t, he’s saying leadership saw it and didn’t report it because of political correctness. Where is his proof? Simply being there? Maybe that’s enough, I don’t know.

One article citing NPR isn’t even arguing for political correctness as a cause.

And yet, this tragedy shouldn’t be viewed as a breakdown in political correctness; but a terrible lapse in good judgment.

…

Some have said that the media has been reluctant to call what happened at Fort Hood an act of terrorism because it would not be politically correct to do so. I’ll say it: what happened in Texas indeed was an act of terrorism, but no more than the heinous acts carried out by our non-Muslim Americans.

The third article is the same as the first.

“I was astounded and went to multiple faculty and asked why he was even in the Army,” the officer said. “Political correctness squelched any opportunity to confront him.”

This is a person who thinks something should have been done and is assuming nothing was done because of political correctness. Where is the evidence? This is opinion.

Part of the articles want to pretend people ignored Hasan every step of the way. They didn’t. There were investigations that didn’t go anywhere. Why didn’t they go anywhere? Was it because of political correctness? That would be speculation.

As NPR says, they didn’t report it further because they “didn’t have clear evidence” of what they suspected. So it’s political correctness gone awry because you don’t report something despite a lack of clear evidence?

Granted this is the closest I think you’ll get to the evidence you think is enough. It’s pretty thin if you ask me but at least you’ve finally cited something, anything of quality so I’ll stop harping on it.

I’m awaiting results of a real investigation into what happened so we can stop speculating and passing judgment.

National Public Radio reported this week that “some of Hasan’s supervisors and instructors had told colleagues that they repeatedly bent over backward to support and encourage him, because they didn’t have clear evidence that he was unstable, and they worried they might be “discriminating” against Hasan because of his seemingly extremist Islamic beliefs.” Link NPR original

These students, speaking privately because they have been ordered not to speak publicly, say they’re angry that what they view as political correctness led their superiors to ignore the warning signs witnessed by students and faculty at the Uniformed Services University of the Health Sciences in Bethesda, Md. Two of them expressed a willingness to testify about Hasan’s conduct in the 2007-08 school year but also expressed concern that the military’s political sensitivities could compromise any Pentagon investigation.

What more do you need?

Adam, I gave you some information and I told you that I heard it in three interviews. I have read it in a few places. I also happen to know quite a few doctors at WRAMC. Perhaps some of the information I have is not in the public yet.

But publicly, there have been officers who said they did not report it because they were worried about how it would be seen.

If you heard it in interviews certainly somebody else did too? Why can we not find it? Why, if it’s so clear to you folks can’t you find me 1 single verifiable piece of information? Because you know things that aren’t public yet? What about Victoria and Blake? Do they know things that aren’t public yet or are they just speculating too?

Big Dog wrote the post but can’t back it up with actual evidence.

Victoria says it’s “all over the blogosphere and in the news” but yet can’t provide me a single link for some reason.

Blake calls it “self-evident” so he doesn’t have to provide any real evidence.

Anybody else want to weigh in on this?

All terrorists have been Muslims? By what definition of terrorism? I know you hate Muslims and you have a fetish for death and torture, but can you please try harder to stick to the facts?
