Rush was talking about this yesterday. People are forgetting, and the media is a big reason why.
I recently remarked to a friend that unless one was personally hit with a piece of concrete from the falling buildings, people are forgetting. Amnesia seems to be settling in, even in NYC.
But they are VERY quick to mention Abu Ghraib, Gitmo, or any other presumably egregious error on the part of anyone serving under a Republican administration.
I posted a rant upthread (downthread from your message). I don't recall what number it was. I think you can click on my screen name and find it. I've been ticked off all week about this Turbin guy, to put it mildly. Ticked even more, because I know it's not just him that feels this way.
The sight of the nation pulling together as unified, determined Americans after 9/11 sent chills up the spines of both the media and the socialist-agenda faction (although I might be being redundant there). The prospect of Patriotic Americans fighting for their country under the leadership of a strong, conservative President was just more than these '60s survivors could bear.
President Bush has not forgotten.
Rush is right.
At this point I have seen more stories, media editorials, headlines, congressional outrage, and images about Abu Ghraib than I ever did about 9-11. The September 11 coverage lasted about 3 months ... Abu Ghraib has gone on now (full force) for well over a year.
People like Ted Kennedy expressed sorrow over 9-11 ... for Abu Ghraib he was yelling ... red faced with spit flying out of his mouth and eyes bulging. I saw the same thing with presidential wanna-be Al Gore ... and other POS like him.
At his rate, the Gitmo stories will pass September 11 outrage very soon.
We MUST not forget ... I know I sure haven't.

those who forget history are condemned to relive it.
