FORT HOOD, Texas (AP) — Maj. Nidal Hasan has been convicted of premeditated murder for the 2009 shooting rampage at Fort Hood. That means he’s now eligible for the death penalty.
Military jurors found the Army psychiatrist guilty on Friday for the attack that killed 13 people and injured more than 30 others at the Texas military base.
The trial now enters a penalty phase, where prosecutors will ask jurors to sentence Hasan to death.
Hasan is acting as his own attorney. But he didn’t call witnesses or testify, and he questioned only three of prosecutors’ nearly 90 witnesses.

This could present Zero with a real dilemma - one that has the potential to be bigger than the Arab spring.
Hell, it might even force him off the golf course and back to the WH - away from his 793rd vacation.
(Nah - now I'm just exaggerating. Nothing could be THAT serious.)
The last man nearly ruined this place he didn't know what to do with it. If you think this country's bad off now, just wait 'til Zero's through with it.
