America the Right Way...September 11,2007[Remember the Trade Center]
Freepers | Sept 11 2007 | All of us

Posted on 09/11/2007 2:27:57 AM PDT by Dog

Six years ago today 19 terrorists and a movement called Al Qaeda decided to declare war on America. They struck the first blow at 8:45 am in New York City by attacking the Twin Towers with planes as cruise missiles. Then word came at 9:43 the Pentagon had been hit...as that news sinks in we get word of another hijacked plane heading towards Washington...that plane was Flight 93 it crashed outside a sleepy little town in Pennsylvania called Shanksville little did the world know that American passengers on Flight 93... fought the first counter-offensive of the coming war and WON!!

We answered that movement called Al Qaeda in the coming months and years...with many of their leaders killed or captured.....and the war goes on.

Today we honor and remember all those brave souls who went to work that beautiful sunny Sept. morning....and never returned home that night.

God bless them and God bless America.

Good morning, All and thanks for starting the Memorial Thread, Dog.

I was sitting at my computer at work listening to a local 2-DJ entertainment show when they announced a plane had hit one of the twin towers. I thought it was probably an accident with a small plane. Subsequently, the DJ's were watching the TV coverage and all of a sudden they started freaking out that another plane had flown into the other tower. I knew instantly ...... and my mind immediately flashed back to the last 9 years of the weakest, cowardly, arrogant, it's-all-about-me, Executive Branch that did absolutely nothing about this extremely serious threat to America's existence.

The culmination of the result of that despicable group of people running the Executive Branch came to full maturity on September 11, 2001.

During the week of President Reagan's funeral, Doug from Upland, as ghost writer for the Reagan family, to the one who inhabited the White House in the 90's who threw a temper tantrum because he didn't get to speak at President Reagan's funeral, published the reasons why the adolescent didn't get to speak. There was one reason Doug listed that rings powerfully true and completely summarizes UOX42's entire attitude toward national defense:

"President Reagan confronted head on and defeated the great evil of his time. You let the great evil of your time develop critical mass and left a nightmare for your successor."

It's raining here so I have four little flags flying in my window boxes protected by the porch roof. I couldn't NOT fly the flag today.

Good to see you Janie!

Morning everyone!

Things are good here. A lot of unpacking and sorting to accomplish and we will be in much better shape once the house in Leesburg sells and we can close up here, but Jack is very happy and feels so much safer far away from his “Mother”.

It is overcast here today. I haven’t turned on the TV. I know there will be many tributes to those who lost their lives on this day 6 years ago.

I got up early to put my flag out....many of the houses along Main St. are flying their flags today....this is small town, USA.

I know that all Americans feel the same, big town, small town, southern..or out west...as we see the pictures from Sept 11th, our hearts feel heavy and tears fill our eyes...we must never forget.

2/3rds, I agree with what you wrote about the Dems yesterday. They not only will fail to help us in this war, but are determined to promote defeat.

Thanks, Molly. I cringe with a sinking feeling in my gut EACH and EVERY time I tune into any TV coverage of any Congressional committee or full house and see them in charge :((

Great poster #53!

Watching the hearing in the Senate via streaming on my computer. Just had another angry, mad screamer escorted out. This time it was a grey-haired idiot male. As the camera panned the audience as the police escorted the dufus out, there sat code pink again today. I see the CRAT invited them back.
