Former Attorney General Michael Mukasey, speaking on Washington Times radio this morning, said a Democratic congressman should get “professional help” from the Army psychiatrist accused of killing 13 people at Fort Hood.

The congressman, Jim Moran of Virginia, said last week it is “un-American” to oppose the administration’s decision to hold trials for five 9/11 suspects in New York City.

Today, Mukasey attacked Moran for the statement, reports Think Progress.

“I think he’s lost touch with reality. He ought to get professional help, perhaps from Major Nidal,” he said, to the laughter of the show’s hosts.
