WHITE HOUSE CONTINUES BIZARRE BEHAVIOR REGARDING HASAN

So exactly why is Barack Obama asking Congress to refrain from doing its job of investigating breakdowns in investigations? That one has me a little puzzled, especially in light of the unquestionable attempt by the executive branch to push the envelope of executive branch power.

The APreported:

President Barack Obama on Saturday urged Congress to hold off on any investigation of the Fort Hood rampage until federal law enforcement and military authorities have completed their probes into the shootings at the Texas Army post, which left 13 people dead.

Probes into the shootings? Hasn't it pretty well been established that Nidal Malik Hasan was a domestic enemy fighting for the cause of Allah? When exactly should congress be brought into Obama's world?

Ed Morrissey over at HOT AIR makes a tremendous point:

we have to make sure that we don’t have other Hasans waiting in the wings, and we have to fix the failures in our counterterrorism efforts that allowed this to happen. That can’t wait until after Hasan’s trial, which could take months. Furthermore, that oversight authority belongs to Congress, not the FBI or the CIA or even the executive branch. Congress has to investigate the series of decisions made that shrugged off Hasan as no threat even though he made a number of contacts to a figure considered a suspect in the 9/11 plot and who openly recruits for al-Qaeda, behaved so oddly that his colleagues considered him “delusional” and complained up the chain of command about his apparent disloyalty, and who may have sent a lot of his money to Pakistan, according to reports from the House Intelligence Committee.

So the question becomes, why is Obama so worried about Congress' involvement in the details of the Fort Hood massacre and the deeper investigation into the shooting when all he should be worried about is how the actual shooting was handled by agencies under his purview?

Representative Pete Hoekstra has already EXPRESSED CONCERN over the White House's refusal to relinquish information relative to a congressional investigation into Hasan and any groups or people he may be tied to.

NYC MAYOR INVITES 1993 WTC CONSPIRATOR TO CITY HALL

Similar to how CAIR was an unindicted co-conspirator in the Holy Land Foundation trial, Siraj Wahhaj was an unindicted co-conspirator in the 1993 World Trade Center bombing.

Similar to how U.S. Attorney General will be in Detroit to address a group that includes CAIR, Mayor Michael Bloomberg has invited Wahhaj to meet him at New York's City Hall.

Via the NEW YORK POST:

Wahhaj said Bloomberg invited him to the roundtable and shook his hand when he entered the meeting room, which was closed to reporters.

"I think that if the mayor had any discomfort he would not have invited me," said Wahhaj, an imam at Masjid Al-Taqwa in Brooklyn.

Bloomberg, however, initially claimed not to know Wahhaj was there.

As he was leaving, a Channel 2 reporter asked the mayor if he was uncomfortable about Wahhaj's presence.

"I don't know. He's not here," the mayor responded. When told that Wahhaj was in fact in the meeting, Bloomberg reversed course.

"That one. Yes. We have to talk to everybody," he said. "That's what dialogue is all about. That's how you prevent tragedies."

The notion that preventing tragedies by inviting the wolf into the hen house is more commonly known as utter stupidity. The wolf is loose and the leaders in charge have no business being in charge.

VIDEO: MEDIA OFFICIALLY HAS STOCKHOLM SYNDROME

It can really be maddening to watch the shamelessly apologetic nature of folks like Charlie Gibson who didn't know about ACORN being busted enabling prostitution and the illegal alien child sex slave trade while willingly targeting Sarah Palin with public condescension in front of a television camera. Then again, once you realize the depths of cowardice folks like Gibson have, it's a bit easier to digest.

Then when you realize the only answer left for why he would stoop this low is Stockholm Syndrome you can rest easy because the problem has officially been diagnosed.

Check out this logic. A muslim soldier in the U.S. Army slaughters fellow soldiers and the victims are Muslim soldiers.

Stockholm Syndrome
