Is 9/11 an Issue?

President Bush talks about his record, and Democrats demand that he shut up.

September 11, 2001, marked the worst foreign attack on American soil since Pearl Harbor--the bloodiest ever on the American mainland. It's certainly been the defining event of George W. Bush's Presidency. But according to Democrats and their media echo chamber, it now shouldn't be a campaign issue.

One thing that should be repeated time and time again:

THERE IS NO STRONG ECONOMY WITHOUT STRONG NATIONAL SECURITY!

Without strong security, we will get attacked again. With each attack, security beefs up, transportation slows, industries get disrupted, productivty gets hit, unemployment rises etc.

Why hire a legal citizen Tex, when you already employ illegal aliens that are feeding you and taking care of your own home. Those are cow pies your eaten friend, not texas flap jacks.

What is a workable bounty system to end the Reconquistadors parasitism in America?

What should be the height of the wall and depth of the field of fire to dispell the myth of Mexico's claim on Del Norte?

It is fact that the last war won over Mexico was triggered for far less invasion. Even Tejanos know that. Perhaps Mexico wants to be the mouse that roared.

Why should the tens of millions of criminal aliens not be shoved back across our southern sovereign border to end these criminals' rapidly breeding millions throughout America? Because our high officials are undermining American soveriegnty and critical national security in this islamist Terror War? Because Mexico wants to export their surplus peons?

Give it up tex. You've been hammered into a texas cow pie tonight.

True American's, that value and respect our rule of law don't hire people that are in our country illegally. Period. Only criminals do that, and you admitted tonight, you have absolutely no respect for American law, our borders or our sovereignty.

You should be ashamed.

911 is THE issue as far as I am concerned, which is why I am more frightened than ever about this election. The defeat of President Bush would mean an end to the war on terror, and we would be in more danger again than we are now.

Good thank you...and I see you were doing fine yourself until this public thrashing.

I was on another thread earlier today where some folks want (again) the already over stretched military to set up a massive kill zone along our southern border only. Minor things like settling Iraq and catching bin Laden don't pose the same level of threat for them as a Mexican bus boy or lettuce picker.

When reminded that our northern border possed a more serious "terrorist" threat they sure put me in my place with these brilliant questions, "How many invaders make it across the Canadian border every year? Does it amount anywhere in the millions?"

Hmmmmm? I guess enough to fly two planes into the world trade center and one into the Pentagon.

It wouldn't end the war on terror, just temporarly suspend it until thousands more Americans are killed in the next attack. Then Kerry would fire off some cruise missiles at some empty tents in the dessert and everyone would blame President Bush.

I would take a Mexican illegal ANY day of the week over a socialist Canuk legal or not.

I am of the American generation that lives the day after 9-11. The Democrats live before that day. That's why the Democrats hate this commercial. It shows exactly the side of President Bush, the inspiring, principled, and compassionate side they don't want the voters to see. The President should ignore them and remind the American people the Democrats cannot be trusted with power since they won't make our country secure. We're still at war and we need a President who will finish the job at hand. And that man is President Bush.
