It's Bush's favorite day today

"Sep-tem-ber the elev-enth..."

I will not be paying any attention at all to the usual sanctimonious horseshit speeches about how "that day changed us all". Please.

It's perfectly reasonable to expect that 95% of Americans should be over it by now (I'll grant a waiver to those who lived in the affected areas and those who lost relatives on that day). But the sadder thing about 9/11 now is that is has been used for 4 years to justify everything from tax cuts for the rich, to the Iraq War to organizing a bullshit Homeland Security Department staffed by incompetent boobs. In the end, more people have suffered because of these developments, than suffered on that tragic day.

1. thank you for looking at 9/11 through the correct set of lenses!

it is so damn refreshing to be able to see clearly...you just have no idea! thank you, thank you, thank you. i just wish others would try on the same set of lenses--it would be so healing for this country...but the nut in the whitehouse is not going to let it happen. he will continue rubbing salt in anybody's wound as long as it benefits his power grab. what a :puke: of a man he is!

2. Of course it's his favorite day thousands of New Yorkers died

Bush like all shitkicking conservatives HATES New Yorkers.

And what's more he got to use their deaths to push his own sick agenda:mad:
