career criminal/whore salivates over T-word possibilities
this may be the most insane “news” article i’ve seen in months:
A senior U.S. senator on Sunday said the shootings at Fort Hood could have been a terrorist attack, and that he would launch a congressional investigation into whether the U.S. military could have prevented it.
Sen.

“We don’t know enough to say now, but there are very, very strong warning signs here that Dr. Hasan had become an Islamist extremist and, therefore, that this was a terrorist act,” Mr. Lieberman added. [...]
why is his swill being “reported”? answer that and you understand nearly everything.
