As authorities tried to piece together a motive on Thursday for the rampage, a picture began to emerge of the gunman, identified as Spc. Ivan Lopez, 34, a married father who transferred from another base in Texas in February.   Continue reading “Fort Hood Gunman Did Not See Combat In Iraq Tour”

A U.S. government office has the power to approve exports of an abundant type of petroleum and help energy companies begin to partially bypass a 40-year ban on crude exports, according to a report released on Tuesday by Lisa Murkowski, the top Republican on the Senate Energy and Natural Resources Committee.

Twenty-one years ago we were reminded of the deadly danger of having the left-liberals in charge of the police state.

The siege that had begun on February 28 with a botched ATF publicity stunt ended when the and home went up in flames, after an FBI-operated tank on lease from the military was driven through the building, pumping flammable CS gas for six hours into the place where women and children were cowering in fear.
