The inmates may choose to carry out the sentence early. If so, saves us tax dollars, he gets the punishment sooner, with his rapidly declining health hopefully he is miserable until the time his death occurs, and being killed by the inmates would deny him his martyrdom.

Also, if his health is declining as rapidly as rumors imply, maybe he will die with a loaded Depends, and will still be denied his martyrdom.

True but I am personally happy to see the jury make the right decision and skip the PC bull crap, which is so apparent in the modern upper Officer ranks!

Good. Maybe now they'll finally stop his pay and allowances.

A nation can survive its fools, and even the ambitious. But it cannot survive treason from within. An enemy at the gates is less formidable, for he is known and carries his banner openly. But the traitor moves amongst those within the gate freely, his sly whispers rustling through all the alleys, heard in the very halls of government itself. For the traitor appears not a traitor; he speaks in accents familiar to his victims, and he wears their face and their arguments, he appeals to the baseness that lies deep in the hearts of all men. He rots the soul of a nation, he works secretly and unknown in the night to undermine the pillars of the city, he infects the body politic so that it can no longer resist. A murderer is less to fear.

Who wants to take on a wager that "The Administration" grants him a pardon, before they trash out the White house and leave?!?!?!

Because I believe it's a real possibility, I won't take your bet - but it will be interesting to see the outcome.

"C" keys

Well, at least this administration will have enough maturity to leave the "C" keys on the key boards.

Well, maybe because C is a D is why.

This isn't much, but Levenworth has higher standards that JAG.


http://www.military.com/daily-news/2...3317843&rank=9



FORT LEAVENWORTH, Kan. -- The Army psychiatrist sentenced to death for the Fort Hood shooting rampage has been forcibly shaved.

Maj. Nidal Hasan began growing a beard in the years after the November 2009 shooting that left 13 dead and 30 wounded, saying it was required by his Muslim faith. The beard prompted delays to his court-martial because it violated Army grooming regulations.

Hasan, an American-born Muslim, is at Fort Leavenworth, Kan., home to the military death row.

Lt. Col. S. Justin Platt, an Army spokesman, said in a statement Tuesday that Hasan had been shaved. Officials at Fort Leavenworth previously had said Hasan would be subject to Army regulations.

The dispute over the beard had led to the ouster of the original judge in his court-martial. The new judge had allowed Hasan to keep it at his trial last month.

Anything this POS has forceably done to him, is a GOOD thing. May he rot in hell here on earth first, before dying.

Fort Hood victims set to receive Purple Hearts, combat status

It's about time.

http://www.washingtonexaminer.com/fo...rticle/2556950

Quote:
Congress is set to make victims of the 2009 Fort Hood shootings eligible for Purple Hearts and combat injury benefits after the Obama administration has denied them the status for the past five years.

House Republicans, working with the Democratic-controlled Senate Armed Services Committee, added a provision to the defense authorization bill that would give battlefield recognition for the victims of the deadliest attack on a domestic military installation in U.S. history. It passed on a voice vote with strong bipartisan support.

The measure, which is expected to pass Congress next week, also would end a five-year effort by Texas GOP Reps. John Carter, Michael Conaway and Roger Williams to give the victims the status, the Military Times first reported. Texas GOP Sens. Ted Cruz and John Cornyn introduced the bill in the Senate.

The victims have long asked the Pentagon to label the attack terrorism so they would be eligible for the Purple Hearts and added combat-related benefits. But Defense Secretaries Robert Gates, Leon Panetta and Chuck Hagel have stuck to the original assessment that the attack by Army psychiatrist Maj. Nidal Hasan was an act of workplace violence.
