We must also not forget the positives.

I will also not forget the fantastic work that George W. Bush and Rudy Guiliani gave to a country that needed to feel that they were not powerless.

Nor will I forget that when attacked from the outside, this country became one strong and united nation for a time. Of course, we have returned to some bickering amongst ourselves, but I believe we should remember for some time, that when it counts... This country can pull together.

some of the wisest people I know are Marine Gunnery Sergeants. This post is just another example of why. Thanks, Limey.

On September 11, dozens of capable airplane passengers allowed themselves to be overpowered by a handful of poorly armed terrorists because they did not comprehend the depth of hatred that motivated their captors.

I have a friend who's a pacifist. As I said to him, "The world is full of people who only understand that I have a big stick, and if you don't behave I'm going to hit you with it. For every Mother Teresa there are 10 Pol-Pots."
