Lest We Forget

Today is September Eleventh, 9-11. It was on an early fall morning, with skies like the ones in the picture, about the same time in the morning as the photograph that the world changed.
Despite the protests of the Liberals and Democrats, it was not Bush's fault. He had not even been in office eight and a half months. He was still fighting at that time to get his staff approved. I wouldn't even say it was Clinton's fault despite his not persuing Bin Ladin. According to Osama Bin Ladin, it was our fault, Yours, and mine, for living, for going about our business, for our way of life, and for tolerating the Jewish people and Isreal.

Whatever it was, it brought us together for one brief time. We were one United States of America.

And then it was back to trying to the normal business of trying to make political advantage out of the misfortunes of others.
