IMO, the flags need to go back on the cars. The American shirts pulled out to wear again if any stopped. I love Rush's GITMO shirts because it's an effective way to fight back against the visual propaganda. i want to see footage of 9-11 again. Not on tapes I privately own, but on networks. On outlets. This is war, we cannot pretend it didn't happen, or it'll be worse next time.
I've also been considering this poll.
And they apparently weren’t offended by Bush’s five references to Sept. 11. After the speech, Gallup pollsters found that 74 percent of those surveyed had a very positive or somewhat positive reaction to it.
They remember the Bad Thing very well — even if some people don’t want to talk about it.
And I've come to the conclusion the decision to grant 'fairness' in citing more people identified as Republicans to be full of it. They took a snap poll before the speech, and afterwards. The President's target audience was not those that have always opposed him. Only the Republicans/conservatives, Indy's, Iraqi's and terrorists. The absence of Democrat identification means next to nil. It was his base that has always supported him that needed a little morale boost and the poll reflects that's exactly what happened when support increased among that targeted base.
It's human nature. You keep being told you're wrong and eventually you shut up. True leaders know how to rise above this.
