Bush marks Sept. 11 with moment of silence

WASHINGTON (AP) - President Bush said Thursday that history will look back at America’s response to the terror attacks of Sept. 11, 2001 and conclude that “we did not tire, we did not falter and we did not fail.”

We went shopping.

We spent a trillion dollars and thousands of lives invading a country that had nothing to with the terror attacks. We have allowed the people who attacked us to regroup and establish a base in the mountains of Pakistan and Afghanistan from which they are plotting new attacks against us.

We still haven’t caught the guy responsible.

We have an old man running for president who wants to continue the same policies.

Yep, we’ve come a long way since that awful, awful day.

Please take a moment to remember in a manner which you deem fitting.

    And the GOP has the temerity to use 9/11 in their convention. It’s an isult to the servicemen and to those who lost their lives in that horrible day of 9/11.

    Atta Boy, Len! Show your colors! What Patriotism!
    Never mind the attacks we have stopped, the plans we have thwarted, the American lives saved…never mind all that. All you can think and blog about is how the war is costing $$$.
    Remember, we didn’t start this one…
    BTW, I mentioned you in my blog post today! Aren’t you proud?

    @James :

    Remember, we didn’t start this one…

    News Flash: Neither did Iraq.

    And I do believe that if you saw what is there rather than what you think you want to see, you would notice that not only did I mention the trillion dollars we have spent on George W. Bush’s war of choice… I also mentioned the thousands of lives that we have lost.

    Keep on chugging that Kool Aid, James.

    BTW, I mentioned you in my blog post today! Aren’t you proud?

    I can hardly contain myself! ;)

    great post, in simple terms. and this country is still considering another Republican govt. If this was anywhere else in the world, Bush would have been sacked and sent to exile, and the republican party would be doomed.
    but hey this is America the biggest idiocracy. Southerners have raped this country.
    Read my blog on the exact same topic.
    thanks

    “News Flash: Neither did Iraq.”
    Better News Flash: Iraq may not be where Bin Laden LIVED, but Iraq DID play a huge role in the attacks of 9/11. Mostly by funding, but also by training and covering up.
    Come on, Len… I expect better of you! News Flash indeed.
    Oh! And good move, putting the 9/11 post on top. I guess I need to update my post.

    @James : Wow. Let’s just rewrite history, why don’t we?

    Come on, Len… I expect better of you!

    I don’t of you. :)
