It's Time To Forget September 11th (Barf Alert)
The Free Liberal ^ | March 15 2006 | Jonathan David Morris

Posted on 03/15/2006 1:07:33 AM PST by jmc1969

It’s time to forget September 11th.

That’s right. You heard me.

It’s time to push it out of our minds.

You can hoot and holler all you want about this concept. You can say I’m anti-American. You can even accuse me of spitting on the memories of all those who died. But you would miss the point of what I’m about to say here, because this has nothing to do with the heroes or victims, and nothing to do with politics.

This has to do with us.

At this point, that’s all 9/11 is: Just one crazy day that happened four and a half years ago. It sucked, but we can’t change it. We shouldn’t let it change the American dream.

Look around, and you’ll find the only thing America’s confident in anymore is its military. Take that away—take the pageantry, the yellow ribbons, and the thanks to “our men and women serving abroad” before sporting events—and it’s clear that we think we have nothing to offer. We’ve grown soft in the era of get-rich-quick McDonald’s lawsuits. Our culture is vacuous, and our belief in it is missing. Even the best stuff we have—like our colleges—are too busy being reviled to be respected and enjoyed.

Liberals should institute a Free Osama Bin Laden Day.

Actually the title is misleading. Read the whole article. He says:

"We should never forget September 11th happened. And we should never forget the lessons of the carnage that it caused. But just because 3,000 people died four and a half years ago doesn’t mean we should stop believing in the power of what we believe."

Don't agree with everything he writes, but it's not really what the title implies.

UnFreaking believable!

He must have wrote this with his fingers crossed, or maybe he was just clicking his ruby red slippers.

The Eastern Europeans care more about 911 and terrorism then many if not most in the democratic party.

If ever you wanted to know how liberals think.

He sounds like a clue-less, free trading, globalist, one worlder; a socialist just like our President.

I like this part:

We’ve grown soft in the era of get-rich-quick McDonald’s lawsuits. Our culture is vacuous, and our belief in it is missing. Even the best stuff we have—like our colleges—are too busy being reviled to be respected and enjoyed.

I blame September 11th for all of this."


Sure blame 9/11 for our predatory legal system, or our lack of competitiveness. Lets ignore the tremendous subsidies and advantages used most of our trading partners to undermine and destroy our economic system. Lets ignore our own over bearing regulatory system. 9/11 awaken a new natonalist movement within our shores; but, to this moron, our growing awareness of our failed policies are magically transformed into the cause of those very policies.

The author's logic runs like this: You awaken and felt pain, therefore you must have given yourself the hotfoot, since the situation did not exist before you awakened. Something in the process of your awakening placed and ignited that match; so it is important to try to remain asleep.

I want to take this stupid moonbat up to the 104th floor of the World Trade Center, up to Cantor Fitzgerald's trading floor. It's 8:47 a.m. on 9/11, and the building just stopped rocking and the light fixtures and ceiling tiles have just quit raining down. People are screaming and running around, but there's no smoke just yet. The last elevator to safety is long gone, it's history.

Now, how was that again, you stupid m***********?

Liberal scumbags like Jonathan David Morris can forget these people but I can't.
Not ever.

Yes, by all means, let's go back to picking daisies and forget all that nasty terrorism stuff. That way, when we're completely analiated we at least can say we enjoyed our last days. Oh wait, if that happens we won't be able to say anything!

This is exactly why you can never allow these people near the reins of power.

The whole world changed on Sept. 11. These liberals in their sick and twisted minds think that the attack cheated them out of something that is theirs by birthright. What a sick, evil lot they are.
