I still say screw the oil!  Make the entire area a radioactive wasteland!  Yeah, I'm still pissed!

[LRebel]

Wow... yes, I still remember exactly where I was on 09/11 and what I was doing.  I was setting on the end of the bed getting ready to head to the office.  Brushing my teeth watching television (the morning routine).  Just enjoying the usual stuff we all take for granted -- Nice Comfortable Home - A Car to Drive to a Business That I Own - In other words... FREEDOM

I could not believe what I saw on television when they broke in with the news that a plane had hit one of the towers.  And then while I was watching in disbelief, the second plane hit the second tower...... Right before my eyes there on the television screen I watched it happen.  How could this be? 

On 09/12 we rallied together as a country to help each other.  And, we were all ready to kick butt and deal with the perpetrators.

But a year went by... then an other year.... And now seven years.  The things that were important to us on 09/12/01 just are not as important now.  We got back to enjoying all our STUFF and FREEDOM.  The terrorist haven't killed any more fathers, mothers, firemen, or policemen here at home.  So, getting the bad guys has worked it's way down our priority list - way down the list.

Forget?  Never!  We need to be reminded constantly, so we will remember what is important.

We need that 09/12 attitude again!

Yeah, we came together as a country then, and for the first time in a long time, this nation was united and focused on a single, non-partisan goal! Now, we're back to spending our time and rsources fighting internally about BS politics!!! Politics has no place in war! Leave the war making to our capable warlords, take the freakin handcuffs off, and let these guys do their jobs! We do that, and this world, especially this country, will be a much better and safer place!!! Put me in charge for only 1 term and leave me alone! You'll see how easy it can be to fix this mess so no one ever thinks of F'ing with us again! We must make the world fear us as they once did, and stop giving a chit about what they think of us!!!

Hoist!

Pretty sad morning for me. I can remember exactly where I was at. Myself and 5 others form RS 1 of the Special Operations Division of THE DISTRICT of COLUMBIA FIRE DEPARTMENT some how all gathered at Engine 5 in the Georgetown section of the city. We had just got relieved that morning and had trouble getting back into the city in all of the panic that was going on. We had no cell phone service as all the circuits were tied up. What was really strange we had not talked to each other this is just where we all ended up. We then commandeered Engine 5 and headed for the Pentagon. When we arrived it was ass holes and elbows. I told "V" this morning I still can't get the smell of the A out of my mind.

It really kind of sucks. I got home at 2200 hrs that night and had to be back at 0600 in the the next day.

It is a shame how many people forget that day.

Be Safe

THE DAWG

We will never forget.I work for a now French owned company and had to remind them this morning to lower our flag to half mast as a tribute. Had to argue with certain f*ckers as they said it wasn't a Nat'l Holiday.Headed out with tears in my eyes to do it myself.Some Union brothers stopped me and as the noise got louder they finally lowered our banner. This was a bad enough day but when I watched the news and one of the lead ins was how the 2 main idiots put aside their politics to pay tribute together.Gee what a sacrifice! WTF is going on

E PLURIBUS UNUM

Lets also remember the victims in the Twin Towers collectively came from 90 different countries. My brother-in-law worked in the same city block, he was one of the lucky ones that day. Its a day that is etched in our memories forever. Howie, we havent forgotten the tragedy, we lost the feeling of unity that we had so briefly afterwards. The whole world was with America for a moment. Maybe we will get there again without another tragedy.
