"Furor" over Bush re-election ad?
Furor over Bush's 9/11 ad
I hate the Left: they've forgotten 9/11 and they want the rest of America to forget, too.
Of course, President Bush's re-election campaign has included some pictures from 9/11; it was the defining event of his presidency and of all of our lives!
Ground Zero is not only "sacred ground" to those who lost loved ones there, but it's a battlefield to the rest of the country who also hold it dear and sacred, because 9/11 was an act of war on the USA!
We are sorry for these peoples' losses and Heaven knows they have a right to be bitter and a little mentally unhinged, but all of these 9/11 widows have also used the attacks for political reasons: Madames Breitweiser, Gabrielle and Kleinberg have all been prominent witnesses to the "Independent" 9/11 Commission and in addition, Ms. Gabrielle is co-chairman of the Skyscraper Safety Campaign (formed since the 9/11 attacks).
They want to blame 9/11 on Bush, on his Administration and its intelligence organs such as the CIA and FBI, and they even want to blame it on the Trade Towers themselves, as if, were the WTC to have been built better, it somehow wouldn't have as bad.
How do you build a building that will be "safe" when hit by a Boeing 737 with full gas tanks?
[Isn't it curious that the papers "found" these 3 particular ladies to express their "outrage" at the Bush ads, as if they were three of the hundreds of 9/11 bereaved who were chosen at random to comment on the "story?" Even more strangely, the story doesn't bother to mention their participation on the 9/11 Commission.]
Anything and everything is blamed for 9/11 except for the Islamist terrorists who actually perpetrated the attacks and Osama Bin Laden who declared war on America with his Al Queda fatwa-directed soldiers.
9/11--because of live television and its extreme terrorizing aspect--happened to all of us and while most of us did not personally lose someone that day, it felt almost as bad as if we had.
And it took no stretch of the imagination to feel imperiled, horrified and deathly afraid AS IF it were happening to us and our loved ones, friends and family.
They were us. We are them.
In his wonderful song Have you Forgotten singer Darryl Worley expresses the need for us to see the images of the attacks every day and I heartily agree.
We should never forget and we mustn't let the Dhimmicrats and the Leftist Media make us forget through intimidation techniques like this ploy today.
Show more 9/11 images, President Bush, and be proud that you've done such a marvelous job of taking the fight to the Enemy after 9/11 and that you've held the real perps responsible.
Once again, I extend my utmost condolences to those who did lose loved ones in the 9/11 attacks--I gave to the Red Cross, tried to give blood that night (because I've had TB, they couldn't use it) and gave to the Cantor Fitzgerald Fund, among other 9/11 victim funds that I contributed to.
I can't tell the bereaved how profoundly your personal loss was felt by me, a middle-aged lady you'll probably never know down here in Dallas, Texas and I'll bet millions of Americans feel the same way.
The surviving loved ones of the victims, however, should not try to lay private, personal claim to the attacks and everything around them because they belong to the nation, and to some extent, the world.
We've all had to deal with 9/11 and its aftermath and noone has done better than President Bush as our leader and Commander-in-Chief.
Keep the pictures. In fact, use more. Use a lot.
Never forget.
