All networks

Today marks the second anniversary of the day America came under attack. Events are planned at the Ground Zero, White House, Arliington and Shanksville.

I know it is a great respect that CNN Live and CNN Headline news are both cut off from our local cable stations.... it makes me smile to know that their poisonous propaganda will not be infecting the community this morning.

CNN is running the reading of the names of the victims of 9/11 at Ground Zero without commentary.

Wonderfully written John, Thanks for sharing your thoughts.

I appreciate George W. Bush never heaping praise upon himself and also for remaining silent as the democrats attack him daily and disgrace us all with their politicization of this war. Can you imagine all the "me's", myself's" and "I's" we would be hearing if Clinton was in Dubya's shoes? All we would ever hear about is how WJC saved the world

I've turned CNN on.

Your post about your friend searching for your loved one and yelling at you until admitting all hope was lost was most moving. The truth is difficult.

[Porterville]

I still do not trust cnn...

I've turned CNN on.

Same here. How ironic they have the best - and most uninterrupted - coverage of the 9/11 remembrances. What's up with FOX?

You forgot the most vicious one. Hillary, who was on NBC this morning with her bile and venom.

I had 3 thoughts while I was listening to her claim of 50% of those questioned are now suffering ailments like asthma, headaches, stress blah blah, after going into the smoky area of Manhattan after 911; and of course it is the blame of the White House and the EPA.

First I wondered about the psychology of suggestion, and how it might affect a similar percentage of the same symptoms in my area here in Texas.

Then I turned to a morbid thought as I remembered reading something somewhere about how some cultures, when doing battle, intend to cripple and maim their enemy rather than kill them. This has the effect of stopping their combat abilities, as well as straining the enemies logistics and then their economy after the battle. Hillary seems bent on bringing 'hugh' lawsuit action to strain our Federal Government dollars with this, probably right before the election in 2004, but at least by 2008. I know that alone wouldn't crush us, but it would be a big straw, on an already war-weighted camel.

Then my last thought was even more morbid. (I can't help it when I'm listening to her speak.)

I don't trust those anti-America SOBs, the Clintons and their Democrat cohorts, to not do something else; cause, or turn a back to allow, something else, right before the 2004 election. It is an area they must take away from Bush -- that he is protecting us since 911 as he has promised. And I don't trust that they don't have a plan for it.

There, I feel much better just getting those icky Hillary thoughts off my chest.

I thought the same thing coming into work this morning, eerily the same as two years ago.

[Catspaw]

CNN is now running the dedication of the stained glass window at the Pentagon.

I changed the channel when the Fox folks were yakking too much; ditto for MSNBC. CNN just ran the ceremony at Ground Zero run without commentary.

[Peach]

During one of the moments of silence, FNC staff were talking! I couldn't believe it and had to change the channel.

They redeemed themselves by "daring" to show a lot of 9/11/01 coverage.

[JohnHuang2]

Thank you very much, friend.

Can you imagine all the "me's", myself's" and "I's" we would be hearing if Clinton was in Dubya's shoes?

So true. We got a taste of it after the Oklahoma City bombing, as I recall.

[Gabz]

It was the hardest thing I've ever done.

God Bless you.

[Peach]

Beautiful stained glass window dedicated at the Pentagon chapel. Simply stunning.

[alisasny]

Nothing would have kept the rescue workers out of the area to perform search and rescue following the devestation.

Did Hillary forget the firemen and cops fighting days later?

You could have told them that it was cyanide and they would have continued looking for the fallen.

This is mostly due to clinochio's refusal to take custody of OBL when he was being offered up on a silver plate. How he sleeps at night and lives with himself, I'll never know. BTW, had you waited one minute, your posting time would have been 9:11 am cdt. NEVER FORGET!!!!!

[Matchett-PI]

BTTT!!!
