I reread your post. I find it sickening. I find your attitude disgusting. I live 1 mile from the Pentagon. Maybe people in Chicago should grow freakin up. We here in Washington are pissed. Justice must be done. One of my coworkers is DEAD. Get a clue, and don't act like a scared chicken. I must insist on a reply here, otherwise I will FReepmail you with this post.

I'll respond to your post sentance by sentance.

I reread your post.

That's not a bad thing. I wouldn't want you to miss anything.

I find it sickening.

That's your visceral response. It is what it is. I hope you feel better soon.

I find your attitude disgusting.

That's your opinion and you're entitled to it.

I live 1 mile from the Pentagon.

I'm not sure if you're very brave or not too bright. During times of war the Pentagon is considered by our enemy as a military target. You should pay special attention to what actions are going to be taken against any real or perceived enemies because there's a good chance that that repercussions could be coming right back at ya. If you think your life is going to be threatened by some major error in judgment by the leaders of our country I suggest you speak your mind.

Maybe people in Chicago should grow freakin up.

Exactly. That's my point. I'd like to see the neighbors' little kids grow up and not become casualties of a big mistake made in Washington. There's already been far too many casualties around the world created by mistakes made in Washington. I suppose we could shrug off the occassional asprin factory or Albanian refugee column or Serbian passenger train full of civilians when the mistakes don't kill our people, but we'd better pay very close attention if a mis-step puts our civilians at risk.

We here in Washington are pissed.

Well there certainly is a lot to be pissed about but you weren't very specific about just what it is that you're pissed about so I won't specificly comment on that sentance.

Justice must be done.

No argument from me there. I reserve the right to comment and even diseagree with just what sort of "justice" is to be dealt out. Sorry, but I'm kind of American that way.

One of my coworkers is DEAD.

That's horrible. We've all been deeply touched and heartbroken by the horrific tragedy of 9/11. There is now a collective puddle of tears at our feet that connects us all in ways that many will never realise. I'll say a prayer for your fallen co-worker. Memory Eternal.

Get a clue, and don't act like a scared chicken.

I want several clues as to what actions will be taken in my name.

Scared? Hmmm... I don't think that that's the correct word. I'd say I'm more concerned about my friends and family. I'm not afraid to die and haven't been for years. I am a little worried about all the sheep that want me to just follow the United States government into whatever aspect of the battle they want to engage in without me being allowed to ask questions.

I must insist on a reply here, otherwise I will FReepmail you with this post.

Well, you got your reply.
