"Three years ago, on the day that began as a beautiful September morning, 19 men and their sponsors carried out a brutal and devastating attack on our country, leaving 3,000 innocent men, women and children dead, including our loved ones. In those first agonizing hours, and for weeks and months afterward as we searched for word of their fate, we were aware that the shock and horror of that day was not ours alone. With a gratitude we could not yet express, we felt the strong and steady embrace of our fellow Americans. The words, “Never forget,” defiantly written in dust or humbly penned on makeshift memorials, were also permanently etched in our hearts. We will never forget your strength, your courage and your endless generosity.
We speak to you now in the same spirit that you spoke to us then, as Americans, united on behalf of our country. Like many of you, we feel that our nation is poised at a critical moment in history. Like our parents and grandparents before us, we know that the choices we make today will affect our children tomorrow. But we face a new challenge, a new kind of war and an enemy who is different from the enemies faced by earlier generations. This is not an adversary who can be reasoned with or appeased, this is an adversary who has repeatedly demonstrated that its means and ends are one and the same: the wanton slaughter of innocents.
After the attack, President Bush articulated the primary lesson of September 11, that simply reacting to danger after lives are lost is a weak and unacceptable national defense. He believes that taking the fight to the enemy is the best way to ensure that the enemy will not bring death to our doorstep here at home. We agree."

I'm shocked, I tell you simply SHOCKED. FNC via Shep Smith just took a swipe at the Kerry Kamp.
I missed the beginning of the segment but he had Mary Maitlin on and she was really going after kerry's irresponsibility regarding the weapons misinformation. I couldn't figure out why there was no one there from the Kerry Kamp to counter what she was saying (although Shep tried).
When he thanked her for being there, he remarked that who ever it was from KK didn't get on because he went too long on his segment on CNN.....and get this, Shep went on to say "they have a pattern of doing this and it's got me bugged."
I got the distinct impression it was possible he was the one that made the decision to say "TOUGH"
just my opinion, but that's how it came across to me.
