#1,062. How right you are on what 9/11/01 did to Our Economy!!!! Even After my Posts, The Media and the demoCommiecRATS still don't get it. WE ARE AT WAR!!!! We suffered an attack on 09/11/01 that we are still suffering from!!!! If these same people(Rather, Jennings, Brokaw, Rosen, Liasson, Dean, Kerry, Gephardt, Edwards, Bonior, McDermott, Murry, Daschle, Shaw, Matthews, Arnett, Depp, Baldwin, Streisand and ALL the others on the LEFT) were around on December 7th, 1941, we'd be speaking German, Japanese, Russian, North Korean, East Block Countries, North Vietnamese, Chinese Languages instead of English right NOW!!!! These People NEED TO GET IT IN THEIR HEADS, WE WERE VICIOUSLY AND RUTHLESSLY ATTACKED WITH THE INTENT BY THE ENEMY TO DESTROY THE U.S., Our Beloved and FREE Country starting with 09/11/01, Just as The Germans, Japanese, Russian Communists and ALL Their Allies (POST WAR PERIOD-COLD WAR, NORTH Korea, Vietnam) had intended to!!!! They cannot stand Freedom, Their intent on RULING Everybody from Cradle to Grave and be mindless robots in their vision of Society!!!! PEOPLE IN THIS COUNTRY NEED TO WAKE UP AND LISTEN TO WHAT PRESIDENT BUSH SAID SHORTLY AFTER The attacks that DARK DAY: THE U.S. AND FREEDOM Are Under Attack!!!! We CANNOT Afford to FAIL in KEEPING The U.S. a FREE NATION!!!! The U.S. IS THE BEACON OF FREEDOM SHINING IN THIS WORLD!!!! Posted by a 27 Year Veteran Continuing to Serve having Recently returned home from Afghanistan, having taken part in Combat Operations which did achieve successful results against Our Enemies. Who Stands Ready to go back to Combat at a moments notice!!!! This WAR is Every BIT As Important to achieve Total Victory as World War II and The Cold War!!!! We Stand Exactly the same to lose If WE do not have the Same Resolve and Perserverance We Had Back Then!!!! WAKE UP AMERICA, WE HAVE BEEN AT WAR SINCE 09/11/01 AND WE NEED TO STAY THE COURSE UNTIL TOTAL VICTORY HAS BEEN ACHIEVED!!!!

Don't the Rats just make you nuts? I never knew they were quite so dense.

There was just some priest on FNC on Hannity & Colmes saying if we really wanted to protect America we'd put more money into public education and health care!

I had to turn it off. It's too mind boggling to contemplate sometimes that people do not understand that if we do not go to war with the terrorists, they will bring war to America (again and again and again).

Defender, they are blind.

Keep finding and sharing the truth. We have other news sources today, and even the Brits, fed on BBC socialist BS can grow up to be tough and courageous soldiers. Russians who were used to Pravda learned to take their press less seriously. Americans are learning that today.

Thank goodness for the internet. We have a small army finding and sending out the news re. the troops. I update my homepage daily. Take a look at this history of the war in Iraq:

8 Unapologetically Pro-Coalition News Links and Articles

I stopped reacting to a press that is sick and inflexible, and went on the offensive. My view of the war, from DoD, CENTCOM and the troops has restored my faith in humanity.

Not that I've stopped responding to the press, or holding them up to public scrutiny:

8 If the press "cared" about the Iraqi people, they wouldn't attack their liberators daily

HERE'S TO THE INCREASING IRRELEVANCY OF THE MAINSTREAM INTER-NATIONAL NEWSMEDIA.

Our best and brightest are not at Harvard

I turned it off too! Sean was beside himself with the guy saying all we needed to do was educate our children. I mean how naive is that to think that will protect you from people who want to kill you ..?? Ignorance can kill you!!

Well, between FNC and Dan Blather I guess it wasn't a successful viewing night! I think I'll keep the television off until 9/11 because I'd rather have the president's words ringing in my ears than the pundits and naysayers.

"The fact that Saddam had WMDs was supported by the UN, the intelligence agencies of numerous countries, including those opposed to military action, by both Clinton and Gore, and by most of the Dems who are now pretending Bush made it up."

Find them. Then prove how they were a threat to the borders of this nation of states.

You find them. And find Saddam while you're at it. And prove how he was threat to anyone.
Unless of course you want to deny that he existed as well.

To do that, I suppose they're going to have to find the 30,000 munitions President Bush said were there.

Read the above again. And when you can find a way to actually challenge it, get back to me.

At a minimum, 9/11 cost us in excess of 80B$ in clean-up and rebuilding cost alone. It has cost us more in additional attempts at security, some of which will certainly go awry as we try several approaches to discover what will work. Indirect costs to the US economy for the past 2 years are greater than 500B$ and probably amount to paring 3+% off the growth rate of the economy.

Tell this to those who think we can run from Iraq and find a low cost, risk free method of fighting terrorism.

Sadly, 2 years after 9/11 many people have retreated back into a dream, totally oblivious to the dangerous world we live in.

Your post is excellent. Thanks for the ping.

It's not up to me or any conservative. It's up to the neocons. The burden of proof lies on the one that brings the accusation. Saddam I've seen on tape. We've heard his voice, seen his press conferences. What we haven't seen is 25,000 liters of one WMD, thousands of tons of another, and 30,000 munitions to deliver them. Finding 16 missiles is not an argument either

Just like those who after 9/11 suggested that we couldn't fight hate with hate, that we could only stop terrorism by promoting peace and understanding, and if the terrorists knew what really nice people we were they wouldn't fly planes into our building etc. etc.

What are these people on?
