Quote from eminitrader007:
I can't believe that it has been 8 years since the worst attack on our soil and the person who was responsible for this horrific incident has not been captured or killed yet. I remember President George W. Bush standing on a pile of debris and telling the firefighters and to all of us that he was going to get the person who did this; either dead or alive and now we find out that this was just one of the many lies that he told us.
Thousands of people died on that day and there are still many of the people (Republiclowns) that would rather have a tax cut than make a sacrifice while we are at war. The thing that makes me sick was that the previous administration was willing to use 911 to further their own causes. As Tom Ridge mentioned in his book, he was pressured by the Bush administration to increase the terror threat level during the elections. This is disgusting as hell.
Dr. Rice sent a memo to the president saying that there was evidence that Bin Laden was ready to attack, but the president did not bother to read it or act on it because he was on vacation.
Honorable Pat Tillman gave up NFL, fame, money and his life to fight against Al-Quida and the terrorists but he gets sent to Iraq because Saddam Hussein wasn't supplying oil to Bush's friends. Bin Laden wanted the US soilders and the military bases out of Saudi Arabia and after 911 the Bush administration removed them from Saudi Arabia. Bush basically gave Bin Laden what he wanted.
I am thankful to GOD that we now have a president that cares and has kept us safe from the terrorists. Thank-you President Obama.
911 - WE WILL NEVER FORGET.
USA....USA....USA...
O! say can you see by the dawn's early light
What so proudly we hailed at the twilight's last gleaming?
Whose broad stripes and bright stars through the perilous fight,
O'er the ramparts we watched were so gallantly streaming?
And the rockets' red glare, the bombs bursting in air,
Gave proof through the night that our flag was still there.
O! say does that star-spangled banner yet wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave?
On the shore, dimly seen through the mists of the deep,
Where the foe's haughty host in dread silence reposes,
What is that which the breeze, o'er the towering steep,
As it fitfully blows, half conceals, half discloses?
Now it catches the gleam of the morning's first beam,
In full glory reflected now shines in the stream:
'Tis the star-spangled banner! Oh long may it wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave.
And where is that band who so vauntingly swore
That the havoc of war and the battle's confusion,
A home and a country should leave us no more!
Their blood has washed out their foul footsteps' pollution.
No refuge could save the hireling and slave
From the terror of flight, or the gloom of the grave:
And the star-spangled banner in triumph doth wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave.
O! thus be it ever, when freemen shall stand
Between their loved home and the war's desolation!
Blest with victory and peace, may the heav'n rescued land
Praise the Power that hath made and preserved us a nation.
Then conquer we must, when our cause it is just,
And this be our motto: 'In God is our trust.'
And the star-spangled banner in triumph shall wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave
