So now Pete Hoekstra is blaming Obama Administration
for the shooting at Ft. Hood. Blitzer asks "Is this administration telling you what they did to investigate this incident before it happened". He goes on to quote about the emails and why they weren't caught by anyone.

If memory serves correctly didn't all these emails take place in 2008. And weren't they caught by investigators and dismissed in 2008. Hoekstra is saying that they are being kept from the information the Obama Administration found out in the emails about the major. Blitzer did not ONCE correct him, and Blitzer himself were carrying on the conversation as if all this happened during this administration when in fact it was 2008, before the Democrats took charge.

They are both trying to place the blame on this administration and saying they are covering everything up. He praises Liberman for going forth with the investigation and faults the FBI and CIA because they don't release the partial information so they can go ahead with the probing.

1. Rep. Hoekstra was Chairman of the House Inelligence Committee until January, 2007.
So he had access to all this information and intelligence. What did he do about it??

2. Insane isn't it?

If there is a way to blame a Democrat for something that happens, Republicans will try to find a way to do it. They blamed Clinton for 9/11 when that happened on Bush's watch approximately 8 months into his Presidency and now it looks like they are trying to pin this shooting on President Obama when he wasn't even POTUS until 1/09. Makes perfect sense doesn't it?
:crazy: :banghead:

But then again, when did anybody accuse Republicans of even attempting to use logic before opening their mouths or the corporate media whores of actually doing their jobs and asking Republicans follow up questions about their BS (while reserving their tough questions for Democrats)? :eyes:
