Happy 9/11, Cheney and Rumsfeld! A gift much greater than you could have ever hoped for.
      

Edited on Sat Sep-11-10 12:06 PM by gateley


EDIT to clarify - I'm not one who believes it was our doing. I just believe Cheney and Rumsfeld viewed this as an "opportunity" to achieve their despicable goals. They probably thought it was a gift from God.

5. How many more years are they going to cover this
   I mean the coverage of an event that happened 9 years ago.... what is significant about 9? I can understand next year.

Are they going to read the names for the next 20 years?

11. They are leaving out important touchstones related to this history.
   Glossing over blowback does nothing more than create national amnesia for what brought this act and bin Laden into existence. Charlie Wilson's war was lost. Creating war to fight war is a futile act. Romanticizing 9/11 as an isolated event in history is a disservice to the nation and a world torn apart by similar romanticization of other acts of aggression. They do not occur without cause.

I don't know why but this year I am more pissed off than other 9/11.  I want these asses out of here, just leave this country if you hate it so much. Seriously, there is not a time in this country that they love. Not the founding of the country to today. You are miserable people.

But, my friend, the proper thing is not to let it grow unchecked.  One has to be able to channel it properly.  But, let it grow.

I agree, with you here, I can however wander about Cemetery's to read the stones, but when it comes to my Dad, I cannot visit his grave without going into a blue funk for a week or more.

I cannot understand the amount of grief the family's feel when reminded every day of the death of a loved one as they pass the site.

So much is different from loosing a very ill family member to age and loosing a young and vibrant member and their friends  to Murder.

This is asking for too much for the loved ones of those on the planes to accept and just go one with life.  This is asking for us to grovel in the dirt like a beaten dog. This is telling us that the deaths were somehow our fault and if we disagree they will kill us.

However these new keepers of us will turn themselves inside out if they have even a very slight perception of are not allowing them to mass murder on our soil.

   I have never seen such groveling to the enemy as I see today.  

The area I come from is small, we had a British Governor named Wentworth.  A small number of the towns folk road their horses into the governors home and sent the British running for the boats to hide on what is called the Ilse's of Shoals until they could be picked up and taken back to England.

His home became a Nursing Home, still there today and as I worked there I could see on entering the actual hoof prints in the wood floors, the wall paper from that time was still intact and over the mantel of the fire place were the holes from the shot from the riders.

Our ancestors ran the buggers out of town, it is time for us to begin to remember history and think of how we can protect ourselves today.

If the Federal Government will not protect America then we need to protect ourselves.   Reason we  are given the right to bare arms, to protect us from the Government, foreign and demostic enemy's.

It never occurred to me that I could get this worked up but, you see, the war is now on our land, not overseas but right here in our city's and towns.

Example one boy left a ham sandwitch on a table the Muslims claimed as their own---This kid was Arrested for terrorists acts---this was Maine.

The boy was new and had no idea that this table was off limits to non Muslams.     This is a city public school and none of the other faiths had an off limits table, no Catholic table where a meat sandwitch was considered a terrorist act on Fridays. No Jewish table where a ham sandwitch was considered a terrorist act.

We let these little things slip by but as they mount and grow on us before we know it, we become the slaves of MONSTERS.

 Just hide and watch as the Christian Church's fall in line with this tolerant crap because they get a new roof on the church or new Choir robes from an anonymous Donner.

It's ticking me off too, maybe because I didn't read DU as much as I do now since I started posting here, but I think the insanity that is in charge in Washington now, and add to that the total disrespect shown to the victims by trying to stick a Mosque at Ground Zero, and the left sticking by Islam and to hell with free speech by getting all upset over a Koran burning, I've had it, I've reached my fill of reading stupidity.

Something is different this year and hard to explain.

I posted this pic at a social forum this morning to remember what today is...



For some reason it brings tears to my eyes the same as seeing images from that day and week did 9 years ago.
Was able to visit ground zero in May 2009 and it is a sobering thing as is looking back at the Manhattan skyline on the ferry to Liberty Island.

I don`t want to seem to be a drama queen but in this past year to know and see those that wish to excuse,ignore and actually apologize for how great we are to those that did this in power is just is hard to accept today.

We show are greatness as Americans by overcoming and moving forward and now we have as a President and a Congress those who believe we are deserving of destruction.
We will not be beaten by either.

I think it's because they have all of the seats of power--the executive, legislative, and some would say the judicial as well--and they're Hell-bent on obliterating anything that may have been considered good and decent from the face of the Earth.

But this will change, starting on November 2nd of 2012.

Is it okay to start wishing a pox on these wastes of humanity, now?

I don't think that it is, AR--and the above should read 2010, not 2012. :o

You are absolutely correct. That is why I channel it onto this forum in the form of voicing my outrage/being informed, and I will channel it into the ballot box come November.

Last night was one of those rare occasions when I got to talk to my son for a long time. I said it seems such a futile thing sometimes to get rid of these radicals because for every 10 we kill 100 more are there to take their place and somewhere in a cave one of these guys is planning the next 911. He told me he wouldn't be able to live with himself knowing he could've prevented someone else from being attacked (this is a paraphrase, unlike your basic DUmmie I don't have a photographic memory, guess patriotism makes my memory less reliable). I'm totally in awe of those of you willing to serve (and sacrifice) anonymously especially when some of the lives you save are ones like these.

And the thing is, I know these people are like this in real life. My BIL is like this (I bet he even has a DU account). He used to be really close to my son, even bought him his first fishing pole, had his name engraved on it and everything. That pretty much changed when Jake became a Marine. And my BIL totally thinks it's my fault because I brainwashed him. Yeah, a 6 foot tall kid who I'd have to leap up to smack him in the head, with a college degree chalk full of liberal indoctrination...I sneaked into his room at night, drilled a hole in his brain and inserted the Constitution...it's my fault. How can a person's feelings change like that? These people aren't worth killing a maggot for, let alone another American. Why do these jerks get to live? Shit, this is really petty...maybe I've read too many DUmp posts.

WOW! Just wow.
Did I just read this correctly? The stupid DUmmie wants to know how long we are going to remember 9/11 and all those that had perished that day in the hands of terrorists?! I have ZERO respect for these people. ZERO! :bird: :censored:
