5 years after 911
 

any thoughts about 911 ?

analyzing doesn't do it either
 

I think, that we should never forget 9/11 or the people or the heroes. And move on. We've heard all of the reasons, and they are good ones, for why we shouldn't go to war, shouldn't kill civilians. and I agree - war is insanity. But we've got to stop analyzing it and move forward to solve this.

There are two movies out right now that are good examples about how hateful our thinking has become. One is about Clinton's escapades in the whitehouse, which children will be very confused over - or at least the ones that aren't already, including young teens.

The other is about the assassination of Pres. Bush. This goes beyond politics and is clearly a threat.

Terrorists, and I'm referring to the real ones not us, are not interested in analyzing our mistakes in IRaq - they are far too busy exploiting them.

Michael Fox, who is an inspiration to many of us with PD, was asked on Bravo - Inside the Actor's Guild - what his favorite thing, or characteristic that he admires most in people or whatever those questions are they always ask at the end of that program. His reply was "courage without fear".

Spreading fear is not uinique to the Bush admininistration. Talk about solutions, not philosophies. Drilling it in everyone's head how imcompetent the leaders in charge of our lives are is fearmongering at it's worst.

The best thing to come out of another 9/11 memorial would be for us to come together and make if clear that we won't fight unless we have to but if we have to.....we're going to finish it this time.


forward... solutions...unite

i cant stand clinton because he bombed kosovo

staying with one party is a major problem with americans

Actually, I wish we had more parties....more choices....real parties- not isolated ones like libertarians. I wish the Independent Party would become a strong third party. It seems logical with so many problems between the donkey and elephants.

im voting against whoever is in now

there are third partes, but they suck
the green party sucks i think

libertarians suck too

maybe americans get the goverment they desreve

Very well said Paula, I could not agree more....Sue

I agree, Paula. I think the biggest problem in the Vietnam war is that we left the South Vietnamese on their own against the enemy, and didn't finish the job there. I do not want to see Afghanistan and Iraq turn out the same way.

9/11
 

Interesting-Bob Bowman just won the primary in my district in Florida. He has quite an interesting demeanor- in his TV ads and phone calls he is loud and authoritative. His voice has come booming out of my answering machine. And he has an infamous opponent, Dave Weldon, staunch sponsor and author of anti-ESCR stem cell bills. That should make for some interesting decision making. We know how to pick em down here...

Caught part of this on Sundance tonight. VERY sad. We all know how difficult it is to get medical help when you've lost your job due to disability. How our government could turn it's back on the rescue workers infuriates me.

The workers found out how little their government appreciates their efforts, in the same way they turn their back on vets when they are no longer able to 'perform' for them.

I give it a definite recommend if you happen to catch it on sundance.
