Outrage: Whistleblower blown off
The nearly-beaten-to-death whistleblower in New Mexico, has been dismissed as a liar and threatened with filing false charges as he lays near death in the hospital.

According to the Today Show, police are calling the man a liar. Police say "witnesses" among the five men who beat him in a strip club parking lot, claim he hit a pedestrian which incited the beating. Funny that the pedestrian incident has taken a few days to catch up with the initial claims that he was beaten to silence his testimony in a congressional hearing against a nuclear plant.

Oh well, obviously this whole story was a sham. I'm going to watch the Today show for some more real news. :eyes:

2. Probably not paid any additional pay...they were already paid to beat him.

3. I'm in NM
and the one word I've heard about this latest testimony from witnesses is "BULLSHIT."

This is cattle country and people know their bullshit, and this whole thing stinks of it.

5. It's obvious to me way up north here that they're lying.
All I could say when I saw this "report" was GOD. HELP. US.

4. This administration is a pathological liar.
Whatever they say is untrue. They slime people to put them on the defensive.
