#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!!!!

Great Post!!!

Thanks for the ping John

IMO .. These people aren't listening to President Bush because they don't want to. Their hatred for him and their lust for power runs to deeps for them to admit/recognize what is right in front of their faces ... that is plainly obvious.

All that some in the media have to do is go back and re-read/listen their own words in print & video. President Bush DID discuss and explain to the american people what we were facing and that there were still hard days to come.

After many of his speeches, many of them AT THE TIME would give him praises. I even remember being shocked of the nice things Chrissy Mathews would say right after some of the President's speeches to the American Public.

BUT then he would get his DNC talking points and he would be back on the war path against the president AGAIN.

I also remember one time when those on the left complained that the President wasn't talking to the public about the war in Iraq and yet they WOULD NOT air on the main networks an important speech he gave.

What the left fails to admit/recognize is that President Bush is not the enemy ... THE TERRORIST ARE!!

What the left fails to admit/recognize is what this country is about .. WE THE PEOPLE .. UNITED WE STAND DIVIDED WE FALL

I will NEVER forget 9/11 and I will never forget my then 6 year old daughter asking me .. "Mommy why do some people hate our Country and our Flag" ..

The way the left continues to turn a blind eye to the truth and what we face and the way they continue to LIE .. not spin, not stretch the truth, but the BOLD FACE LIE about what the President did or didn't say .. tells me they want this country to be divided and fall

NEW FLASH TO THE LEFT .. FAILURE IS NOT AN OPTION!!

Got a little more of the phrase on the line by changing "terrorist" to "terror" and eliminating "the" before "use of strength". The meaning's the same, but it's a little more true to his words. Thanks.

Republic...thanks for the ping.

Defender, you are so right. The Dems are whining and complaining about the $87 billion request from President Bush. Can you believe it? Our troops are on the front lines and the Dems are waffling on whether we should support them. ABSOLUTELY PATHETIC! They understand full well what is at stake here but they don't care. All they care about is regaining power, not what is good for the country.

Criminy, I'd be more than willing to forgo that stupid prescription drug benefit to win this war. Okay, that's not totally honest because I'd be more than willing to forgo that stupid prescription drug benefit regardless. LOL!

This is war and we have to win. There is no turning back or the future of the civilized world is in grave jeopardy. I can't believe the Democrats are willing to forsake national security (world security for that matter) in order to score some political points. Sickening.

Wphile, the Dems aren't the ONLY ones whining about the $87 billion.

There are freepers among us who are doing the same exact thing.

Cut the farm bill, cut the prescription drug bill, cut the education bill, but for the sake of the safety of our troops, do NOT shortchange them by cutting support of our military!

#1,166. I will gladly do it if it can be arranged and cleared by D.O.D., with proper releases. I would want to do it on FOX with Sean Hannity. I think The Administration would like to have one that's been there and a long time U.S. Servicemen Having served and continuing to serve Our Country, Starting under the Honorable Gerald R. Ford thru present and also since I started out with Our Very First Line of Defence, Turning sorties which Intercepted Soviet Bear Bombers off our Atlantic Coast many times and subsequent service.

#1,164. Yes indeed, This War Against Terror is EVERY BIT AS
IMPORTANT In Achieving Victory as was Achieved in World War II and The Cold War!!!! We are indeed fighting for Our Way Of Life's Survival!!!! We Will Not Fail!!!! We Cannot let the LEFT proceed any further in UNDERMINING Our TOTAL VICTORY. This is definitely a WAR that will be fought on many Fronts and in Many places and will take a long time in achieving Total Victory as The President has stated from square one after 09/11/01 occurred. The Enemy lurks in many places in this world and it will take a long time in finding all of them. With Unbridled Determination, Victory Will definitely be achieved if we remai Resolute and stay the Course. Thank you very much for your important and well writen comments!!!!:-) Very Best FReegards, Defender2 D2

#1,164. Thanks for your comments!!!! Indeed Achieving Total Victory in the WAR ON TERROR is indeed every bit as important in achieving Victory in World War II and the Cold War!!!! Hussein, harbored supported, paid and trained terrorists in Iraq!!!! Hussein committed Ultra Terror Using Weapons of Mass Destruction in his own country of Iraq killing 5000 Kurds!!!! His Acts of Terrorism Guaranteed his elimination from power on the world stage!!!! He had to GO!!!! And Believe it, He won't Be Returning to power in the Future at ALL!!!! He will either be brought to justice or will die in battle!!!! As Bin Laden Will also either be brought to justice or die in Battle or both will just be eliminated in any case!!!! They Can't RUN and Hide Forever!!!! Just as Nazi War Criminals were huinted down and caught even though in many cases it took years!!!! These Two have BIG KING KONG GODZILLA U.S. on their back and try as hard as they might they are not shaking Him off!!!! The proper word here is TOTALLY RELENTLESS PURSUIT!!!! Very Best FReegards, Defender2 D2 Also a BUMP for post # 1,122 this same thread!!!!:-)
