Barry O should NOT be hijacking the meaning or date for his own agenda.
“On the 19th of April, in ‘75, hardly a soul is yet alive...”
That’s Patriot Day? Could have sworn I’ve heard 9/11 called that...or maybe it was PatriotS Day...sounds like a fitting tribute to United 93 fighting back against the terrorists.
All this crap about serve your community—yeah, that sounds innocent but let’s see a role model—ACORN! Yeah, that’s the ticket! Everyone be like ACORN tomorrow!
Puleeze. It should be a day of remembrance and reflection, not something to personally support HolyO’s political agenda. Does this guy EVER stop campaigning?!?
I never understood why GWB named Sept. 11 as Patriot Day. Those who died were simply doing their jobs, whatever they were, not specifically being patriots. I thought that a Day of Remembrance would have been better. Service...as in S(ervice) E I U....just more leftist agenda.
How about 9/11 just being “Kill a Jihadi for Daddy Day?” I’d be down with it.
