Something to Hide? Obama administration defies congressional subpoena on Fort Hood documents

Something to Hide? Obama administration defies congressional subpoena on Fort Hood documents

The Obama administration said Tuesday it would provide more information to Congress about the Fort Hood shootings but continued to defy a subpoena request for witness statements and other documents.

After days of negotiations, the Pentagon and Justice Department informed a Senate committee that they would not comply with congressional subpoenas to share investigative records from the Nov. 5 shootings at Fort Hood, Tex., which killed 13 people. The agencies said that divulging the material could jeopardize their prosecution of Army Maj. Nidal M. Hasan, the accused gunman.

The Pentagon did budge in other areas, however, saying it had agreed to give the Senate Committee on Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs access to Hasan's personnel file, as well as part of an Army report that scrutinized why superiors failed to intervene in Hasan's career as an Army psychiatrist, despite signs of his religious radicalization and shortcomings as a soldier.

Leslie Phillips, a spokeswoman for the Senate committee, called the refusal by the Pentagon and the Justice Department to hand over all the requested material "an affront to Congress's constitutional obligation to conduct independent oversight of the executive branch."

She said the committee, chaired by Sen. Joseph I. Lieberman (I-Conn.), was still deciding whether to pursue the subpoenas in court. The committee has complained that the Obama administration has been stonewalling it for months over its Hasan probe, prompting it to issue the subpoenas April 19.

Pentagon press secretary Geoff Morrell said the Defense Department has tried to cooperate as much as possible with the Senate investigation.

He said that Deputy Defense Secretary William J. Lynn III spoke Friday with Lieberman and Sen. Susan Collins (Maine), the committee's ranking Republican, in an attempt to resolve the dispute but added that he didn't know whether the Obama administration's offer would be enough to satisfy the panel.

"We feel as though we have leaned very far forward," Morrell said. "This is as far as we are prepared to go."

DJ Green Arrow of Artists and Actors for 9/11 Truth once again vows to set new rap record, inspired by NYCCAN

DJ Green Arrow, the rapper who set a new Guinness World Record™ for "Longest Freestyle Rap" at the "We Demand Transparency" Conference, is about to quintuple his record, in an attempt to gain NYCCAN.org major media exposure.

"I have some people from the mainstream media who are interested in this event, because it's a chance for everyone to experience the longest freestyle and continuous rap ever performed in
history. I want to, while I have people aware of my accomplishment, advocate that the official story cannot be true and demand a real investigation".

DJ Green Arrow was asked by Dr. David Ray Griffin to be a member of a new group, created by Dr. Griffin and Ed Asner, called Artists and Actors for 9/11 Truth. The website for the group, which has not officially launched yet, is aa911truth.com

America, the Bushieful - the pdf

http://www.911blogger.com/sites/default/files/America,%20the%20Bushieful_0.pdf

Attached in .pdf file format is my epic poem/lyric, "America, the Bushieful", which parodies the patriotic hymn, "America, the Beautiful". It has grown to 40 verses (30 beginning with "O Bushieful for..." and 10 beginning with "Obamaful for...") and contains much truth, including 9-11 truth. When you open the .pdf file, you'll find each verse illustrated and bookmarked, so you can jump to any verse with a single click of the mouse. This bit of whimsy just might reach people who would otherwise remain asleep, so feel free to e-mail it to anyone you like. Or print it and hand it out at the next Truth event. Or even perform it with a Greek chorus, which would be appropriate, given the tragic decade we've all just lived through. At 40 verses, though, it could take over thirty minutes to sing from start to finish.

If anyone does sing it from start to finish, please video your performance, post it to 9-11 Blogger and then e-mail me the link. I'd love to see that.

(In my first post of this I neglected to include the link to the pdf. This is the fix.)

A stunningly inept "debunking" of Richard Gage from Tom Quiggin

I don't who this guy is, but it's always useful to post crap like this if only to expose it as crap.

9/11 Conspiracy Theories – Debunking Richard Gage
Tom Quiggin
May 1, 2010

“The popularity of conspiracy theories is explained by people’s desire to believe that there is some group of folks who know what they’re doing,” (Damon Knight)

Debunking conspiracy theories that involve the government is a relatively simple process. Rather than getting bogged down in the analysis of minor details, a larger overview of the relationship between government and conspiracies will easily determine if a conspiracy is at play.

Any major event will attract a fringe group which seeks to profit financially or advance an agenda by creating a conspiracy. One current example is the speaking tour of Mr Richard Gage who is the founder of “Architects and Engineers for 9/11 Truth.” His current tour is taking him to Canada, where he will address audiences at the University of Toronto, Carleton University and the University of Quebec in Montreal. Mr Gage believes that it was “explosives” that brought down the World Trade Center buildings on 9/11 and not the 400,000 pound airliners travelling at several hundred miles per hour.

Mr Gage would have us believe that a mysterious conspiracy was behind the 9/11 attacks and that it was secret operatives who planted the “explosives.” As with any other conspiracy theory that involves accusations that the “government” or the CIA (or whoever) actually carried out the attack, it is necessary to run down the following checklist of observations. If you can get past all of these tests, then maybe there really was a conspiracy at work. If not, it is simply that, a conspiracy theory dreamt up by fringe individuals.

"At first just a trickle, a growing stream of prominent Americans are now lending their names to this persistent phenomenon now known as the 911 truth movement. The list includes well-known intelligence, military, and science professionals with names like Lynn Margulis, Ph.D., world-renowned biologist and Presidential Medal of Science winner; Apollo astronaut Edgar Mitchell; Paul Craig Roberts, PhD, assistant treasury secretary under Reagan; Catherine Austin Fitts, assistant secretary of housing under George H.W. Bush; Colonel Robert Bowman, director of “Star Wars” under Carter; and Ray McGovern, a CIA veteran who advised many presidents. Overseas, a myriad of prominent names have admitted profound doubts, including former Italian President Francesco Cossigaone and Yukihisa Fujita, an influential member of parliament for the opposition party in Japan. Over forty U.S. counter-terrorism and intelligence agency veterans have also challenged the official account, calling it: “terribly flawed,” “laced with contradictions,” and “a cover-up.” Indeed, the names of prominent dissenters to the official account are now too numerous to list. At the website patriotsquestion911.com, the list of professionals adding their names to the avalanche includes 1100+ engineers and architects, 250+ pilots, 400+ professors, and many more groups.

But did you hear about any of this from our mainstream media?

Media Matters: Will Napolitano bring radical conspiracies and praise of 9/11 Truth leaders to his new Fox show?

Will Napolitano bring radical conspiracies and praise of 9-11 Truth leaders to his new Fox show?
April 27, 2010 10:26 am ET by Eric Hananoki

http://mediamatters.org/blog/201004270016

Last week, Fox Business announced that it would begin airing senior judicial analyst Andrew Napolitano's FoxNews.com show Freedom Watch. Given the show's history, the move raises questions about whether the channel will allow Napolitano to mainstream and promote fringe guests and radical anti-government conspiracy theories.

In contrast to his Fox News colleagues, Napolitano has used his FoxNews.com show to praise and promote two of the most visible leaders of the 9-11 Truth movement, Alex Jones and Jesse Ventura. On Freedom Watch last month, Napolitano called guest Ventura a "champion of exposing government fraud and lies," and promoted Ventura's belief that the government either "participate[d]" in 9-11 or "knew it was going to happen and didn't do very much to stop it."

A recent bombshell in Quebec's newspaper “La Presse” talking about the World911Truth conference on May 3rd in Montreal with Richard Gage, AIA and Dr. David Ray Griffin has created a coast to coast storm in the mainstream media. From major TV in Quebec, to mainstream radio, to the most popular newspaper in Canada, the Toronto Star, this 9/11 truth debate is being carried out this week-end and is not over.
