The sad, sad fact is that not enough Americans were killed on 9/11. It was not so overwhelmingly traumatic that we became 100% united and determined. That there could still be people out there who don't want to do what is necessary "because it's hard" boggles the mind. Obi-Wan is a very smart man (or woman).

Are you out of your mind? Go back to DU. One American killed was one too many.

The attacks on September 11 awakened the sleeping patriotic masses...for awhile. The libs and other snakes slithered under their rocks to wait.

The libs feigned solidarity with us but time passed and the masses went back to work and their daily lives and the snakes crawled out and began their normal bashing of this country.

If you've seen or read the Lord of the Rings, you could picture the Dems and their MSM lackeys as Grima Wormtongue whispering in the ears of the once noble and powerful America.

We awoke briefly but Grima has returned to whisper more.

Obi-Wan is smart.

With regards to the OBL tape, I noticed a number of not-too-involved barely awake politically type folks (who also vote)had the response of feeeeling it was somehow Bush's fault OBL was even alive.

Go figure.

No human tragedy is great enough for democrats to put the country first. They are as radical as the Islamics and happily awaited the 1000th military death, and danced over the next beheading to further their cause. They are as much the enemy as radical Islam, Bin Laden, and Chiraq. They have proven that not even the slaughter of children in Beslan will take their attention away from what is important to them; party power over their childrens lives.

Quinnipiac showing Bush ahead in Florida by 8 and Fox News showing Kerry ahead in the same state by 5...what the pundits forget is that the Quinnipiac is outside the margin of error (+/-3%) while Fox (which is a bad sample to begin with - it has Kerry leading the male vote by 2% - absurd) is well within the MOE (+/-3.7%) - and Gallup in it's original numbers had Bush ahead by 3 until it decided to "adjust" the undecideds by giving 90% of them to Kerry - the pollsters are being too cute by half to try to make their numbers come out to the assumed reality of election night......

Bill Whittle phrased it better than I ever could when he said this:

But what tortures me is the thought that this country is no longer capable of doing hard, dirty work -- that we have reached the point where nothing difficult is attainable because the cost is something less than free.

A FINAL THOUGHT BEFORE THE SHOW

What you should have said, is that for the second time, Democrats and their socialist rabble counterparts have politicized a war at the expense of unity and may very well damage the prosecution of the war by doing so.

They have eroded trust by our Allies in our foreign policy and damaged the morale of our fighting men and women.

IMO, the only thing we could have done to prevent it, would have been to previously demoted the democrat party to obsolescence and to have so demoralized their supporters so that their voices, their bile and their stupidity would never have surfaced, for fear of recognition and subsequent banishment from civilization.

But, we never put them away like we should have.

this is a good summary...

I did my part today. I ran around like a chicken with my head cut off, getting affidavits signed by people in hospitals (6 people) then running to supervisor of elections for absentee ballots then back to hospitals for voting and signatures...All worth it!!

I talked to a Rabbi at the hospital that's voting for Bush...I talked to a lady in my office building that is 47 years old and never voted!! she's voting tomorrow BECAUSE of Kerry and throwing her vote to GWB.

By the way, I'm in Florida :)

So why is this race so close? Because, Obi Wan suspects, voters know the course that Bush has charted is hard, and will have hard moments. They know that bringing democracy to the Middle East and crushing militant Islamists, rogue states and terrorism is going to have frustrations, setbacks, and casualties. If the world didn’t need this task done, Americans would prefer to stay home and re-live the 1990s.

But Americans know the world changed. The sudden reappearance of the bearded psychopath playing pundit in Arabic on Friday was just the latest reminder. And Americans won’t vote for the candidate of the Global Test.

So very well said.

I continue to believe that Americans are going to stand up in numbers tomorrow. We are going to be proud!

I'm gonna hope it didn't seem that way to you at the time.

It was more than enough to get my attention, we'll see tomorrow.

I know its morbid, but in a way I agree with you.

The sad, sad fact is that...............

..........the massacre was limited to mostly New York, with the Washington (Pentagon) area thrown in. Liberal strongholds that contribute mega-millions to the Rat Cause, like Santa Monica and San Francisco were left untouched. This was an East Coast 'thing'.

Spielberg, Rob Reiner and Tim Robbbins were left untouched both physically and emotionally. What do they care. Afterall, a group of Jihadists didn't invade the multi-million dollar Spielberg or Streisand compounds overlooking the Pacific and after holding the occupants hostage for a few hours or days, behead them one by one on video camera for the Evening News in LaLa-land.

Instead, the pampered All-knowing Glitterati held major million dollar fund-raising parties for Dean and then JfK.
