Fort Hood Scandal Brewing

On November 5, 2009, a Muslim terrorist pretending to be an Army psychiatrist shot and killed 13 people and injured 29.  The Obama administration and Crybaby Harry Reid claims this was just a criminal act and not a terrorist act.
Since then, the trial for the Muslim terrorist thug has been delayed and delayed and for the past several months, the trial has been delayed because the Muslim thug terrorist has grown a beard and the Army judge has refused to hold the trial until he shaves his beard.
From the Houston Chronicle: The Army psychiatrist charged in the Fort Hood shooting rampage should be forced to shave his beard to avoid any potential jury bias in his pending murder trial, say some military experts and the judge overseeing his pending court-martial.
Maj. Nidal Hasan has grown the beard in violation of Army policy and says he wants to keep it for religious reasons. If he's not forced to shave and is subsequently convicted in the 2009 attack on the Texas Army post, the issue could also become grounds for an appeal.
Military trials are very formal and the juries expect all regulations to be followed, down to the smallest detail, some legal experts said.
"I've seen a judge send a soldier out of the courtroom because his uniform wasn't right — his medals weren't in order or his tie wasn't tied right," said Ret. Army Maj. Gen. John Altenburg, a former deputy judge advocate general who now is an attorney in private practice. "Jurors get a first impression of that defendant, and at worst it's neutral and at best it's positive."
Hasan faces the death penalty or life in prison without parole if convicted in the November 2009 attack that killed 13 people and wounded more than two dozen others at Fort Hood, about 125 miles southwest of Fort Worth. http://www.chron.com/news/article/Experts-Fort-Hood-suspect-s-beard-might-bias-jury-3821695.php
What a bunch of crap.  The people who serve as judge and jury are professional Army officers with high ranks, probably Major and above are not going to be swayed by a beard.  Chances are that if the jury is swayed by anything, it is because he was in the Army and embarrassed the Army and not some stupid beard.
For some reason, the Obama administration wants to keep this trial from happening until after the November election.  Maybe they don't people to think this Muslim terrorist thug is actually a Muslim terrorist thug and committed a terrorist act during the Obama watch.
But whatever the reason, the delay s a travesty of justice to the victims and their families and shame on Obama and his administration for orchestrating these delays.
