I watched a bit of the memorial services today and after a few moments I just couldn’t watch anymore. When Biden got up to speak that was enough for me.
Over the last ten years we have seen the liberal democrats obstruct everything this country has done to seek revenge for the souls lost on 9-11, but today I see those very people standing before a microphone telling us how sad and full of resolve they were to seek that revenge. Bidens remarks about “awakening a sleeping giant” truly made me ill.
Since the democrats gained power in 2006 - 2011 we went from being a giant to being an apologist nation for actions taken to defend ourselves and wanting to seek justice for almost 3000 Americans lost. They used it as a photo-op. Obama and the democrats have not strengthened this nation, they have weakened our military, strengthened our enemies, destroyed our economy, and sold us out to the highest bidders. Yet they have the timerity to stand before us today with their patriotic words meant to inspire us all, when we already know who they are, what they have not done, and the damage they still intend to do. 9-11 to a democrat politician is nothing more than a photo opportunity and a lame speech full of meaningless words.
So, fellow Americans let us remember 9-11 in our own way. I remember where I was when I saw those beautiful souls leave this world. I saw it happen, I heard it, and we all lived it. It goes beyond mere love of flag and country, forgotten speeches and words that fade into nothing. I prayed to the person it all matters to. I gave them to God. I gave my country to God. That is where our inspiration and love of country comes from, and that is where mercy, love and compassion inspire us to be greater.
I will never forget. We will never forget those we lost. God bless us all.
I only heard a sound bite from Biden on the news, but of all the sound bites I heard, his seemed the most sincere. (He reminded people that is wife daughter were killed in an automobile accident; and that he knows what it is like to learn in an instant that people he loved were gone.)
