Where is Jack Ruby when you actually need the guy?

Well, it appears that our Texas jihadi is conscious and speaking. From Stratfor

November 9, 2009
Suspected Fort Hood shooter Maj. Nidal Malik Hasan is conscious and able to speak, AP reported Nov. 9, citing a U.S. Army hospital spokesman. In stable condition at Brooke Medical Center in San Antonio, Hasan was taken off a ventilator Nov. 7.

This of course means that Hasan is now able to do more damage to the US than he did when he shot all those people. Jack Ruby also did us a favour. Oswald was all about how great Cuba was and would have liked nothing better than to have a giant public platform with the worlds eyes on him for months or more while he trash talked the USA and raved on about Cuba. Like a Michael moore only effective.

Now Hasan will get his chance. Should be an interesting year.
