Prayers go out to family and friends of the fallen.

Fort Hood Memorial service at Ustream (Caution spontaneous outbursts by Katie Couric may occur)
Note from Tammy: Please use this as your Open Thread as well. I’m commenting live on the memorial as it happens over at Tammy Radio.

Tammy – the moving music you were just hearing are some beautiful hymns.
While people at the Fort Hood Memorial were kept waiting, Obama must have stopped at the paddock to feed and put at ease all the Trojan Horses we keep.
Who’s going to get the ‘shout-out’. Will he have a beer with the officer, or will she be under investigation for violating Hassans’ civil rights?
I don’t know how you managed to speak at the end of the role call. All I could do was cry my heart out.
We have heard volumes about the scumbag who took these lives – watching the memorial service and remembering the fallen was important.
It was good for the Tammy Army to watch this together – thank you Tammy.
Sometimes i feel like just giving up, but then i get MAD!!! and i want to fight back again. i honestly feel like pukeing at the moment.
Tammy – following your live stream from my workplace. Sending you TAM support.
Does Michelle have two L’s? I’ll go that route. I agree with Tammy.
Michelle was looking really crushed by the time she left the memorial.
After visiting at the hospital who knows how much farther she will have progressed.
I doubt it but maybe she will turn out to be a positive force affecting Obama regarding our fight against terrorism and the well being of our troops.
On a similar note – Malvo gets no reprieve, but instead gets the needle tonight at 9PM. I for one will be cheering. He terrorized my community and was caught in Myersville 5 miles from my son’s grade school – when he was in 4th grade. This school is only one in the area of which was literally a stone’s throw away from an Interstate (easy getaway) and word has it our area was “next” on the list. Until those bastards were caught, every day I dropped my son off at school, I had knots in my stomach – like today. Say hello to the Devil, Malov and save a seat for your brother in Islam – Hassan.
Missed the show today and missed the memorial service on FOX. Thank you Pat for posting the Ft. Hood Roll Call, 21-Gun Salute and Tapps clip.
The clearly unconstitutional request for the anti-1st Amendment information referred to a date which fell w/in the Bush administration but the subpoena came from the PrezBO-Holder DoJ, right?
shift gears:
Purple Hearts are in definitely in order for victims of the Ft. Hood attack! No medals confer cash awards that I am aware of (I could be wrong). Medal of Honor winners get a 10% retired pay hike (a real biggee there – if they live; dunno what it is to their survivors, as most awards are posthumous). There is a $1,027/mo. VA pension if disabled, on top of their disability pension too (you should see the pitiful amounts on which we expect disabled vets and their families to exist). Another biggee – plus they get to park close to the commissary.
shift gears 2:
Bad News – shooter is alive. Good News – shooter is alive and knows he…
a) is not in ‘paradise; b) is paralyzed; c) was shot by a chick; d) will get prison hospital food instead of the Gain-weight-in-the-sun, G’itmo Diet; e) gets to see PTSD from the inside; f) will spend the rest of his miserable life (however it ends) in the company of the military he loathes – and shot. Have fun, buddy.
Those are some good vibes you sent to Hasan.
Perfect.
Especially the part about being shot by a chick.
Let’s hope those in charge of his prosecution have the balls to do their job and not fear an investigation by the Obama Justice Department.
As if covering for Hasan’s religion by Obama and the state-controlled media isn’t an outrage in itself, try keeping your head from exploding if it turns that the Obama administration is withholding “critical information.” That’s what Rep. Pete Hoekstra, the ranking Republican on the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence, is saying.
Hoekstra is demanding documents from the nation’s intelligence and law enforcement agencies be preserved for a future investigation into the Ft. Hood Massacre. Especially since these agencies are not handing over specific information Hoeskstra has requested. There are other complaints he enumerates in a letter he wrote to Directors Dennis Blair, (DNI), Robert Mueller (CIA ), Leon Panetta (FBI), Lt. Gen. Keith Alexander, (NSA).

If the administration is stonewalling, I don’t know how Obama could have been present at today’s memorial service expressing condolences to folks whose loved one’s death could have been prevented by not being PC. Unless, of course, as Tammy says, he’s a sociopath. It’s quite scary to imagine what it will take to make the Dinosaur Media report the news, again. Especially news that will keep the American people safe.
G-d protect us!
God protect us indeed. No longer can our military lay their heads on their pillows and feel safe. HTF could we have let this happened to America ?
As a former 8 year Active Duty military veteran, I have to say I was absolutely disgusted to hear some cheers from members of the Army during playing of the bagpipes. That’s when Chicago insurance fraud lady Michelle smiled. Sorry Honey, all the world isn’t an OPRAH show! One, when the bagpipes are playing, you aren’t supposed to move or say anything! The members of the Army who cheered the hag are an embarrassment & need Letters of Reprimand from their Commanding Officers. Obama’s speech was WEAK.
RobbieK – thank you for your service to this country. We owe so much to you and your fellow soldiers and I’m sorry you folks get jerked around by our government.
Can you speak to that deal with the Once placing a coin at each of the murdered victim’s pictures? Perhaps that is what is called for, I just can’t stand to look at that guy when he’s in the presence of our military especially. The whole thing seemed very contrived to me. Couldn’t maybe General Pertraeus have done it or does it have to be the dude in the White House? Since it was the Bama, maybe someone should check those coins to see if the sticker peels off…..
This guy is dithering all over the place regarding the war and the requests of the military commander, then he’s all about it when the camera is on, both for the Ft. Hood Memorial and today. It’s disgusting to me.
Just read an interesting post on HillBuzz commenting on the way Obama and Bush 43 reacted to terrorist attacks at home.
