My wife woke me up (I worked nights) and told me about the first tower being hit. I got up and watched the rest of the whole bloody mess live. Watched the towers fall, watched the Pentagon burn. Watched firefighters emerging from a cloud of debris, looking like lost children, their command and control utterly smashed. Later that night, lying in bed my wife said “please tell me it’s going to be alright”. I looked at her and said “I can’t.”

I said something similar that day. By the time Bush had assembled his thoughts and spoke I felt like things were safe but not under control. We have forgotten who did this to us and even what was done to us much faster than I ever thought we would. I believe we can thank obongo for sweeping it under the rug. The very idea that we elected a muslim in 2008, just seven years after this rape of our country by muslims sickens me. 2008 and we elected barak hussien obama. We are out of our friggin’ minds.
