9-11 Changed Everything
I was listening to that idiot who subbed for Rush Limpballs.It really burns me that these mutants constantly defend the Bush administration's intrusion into our privacy by spewing " We were attacked almost 5 years ago and we've not been attacked since". It's as if airplanes weren't invented before 2001 or that people hadn't tried to kill us before 9-11.

Why can't ANYONE say that,aside from Oklahoma City(inside terrorism), we HAVE been safe for the past 60 years, and that 9-11 may never had happened if someone other than Bush had been our President.

Rant over.

20. It had me do a double take too. It's what I thought it was. Semi-related
to the "submarine races" of my youth. ;)

Being the curious sort.. I naturally Googled it. There's a (humor) book out called "A Girl's Pocket Guide to Trouse Trout - Reflections On Dating And Fly-fishin" as well as a website where a lady/girl can take a quiz to see if she has a real "trout" (I guess that's a good thing?) versus other fish in the sea: http://www.trousertrout.net/

From the website: If men were fish and women the anglers, trout would be the good guys women want to land, Other Fish in the Sea the fellows who make women's lives miserable. How do you differentiate between the keepers and the losers? A Girl's Pocket Guide to Trouser Trout illuminates the often-murky waters of the dating pool with insights inspired by fly-fishing techniques and advice.

Sounds like someone has had a bit too much time fishing. ;)

3. Some nuts got lucky one day...so we throw out
the Constitution, start an illegal war, and re-elect an idiot to further wreck the country's economy and blow up the deficit?
Strange world.

21. Sadly it did change some things ....
I think the Chimp and his evil cabal were able to capitalize on the fear and vulnerability that Americans felt that day ... On Sept. the 10th the Chimp was "pResident" that was a light weight with no mandate and no large base of support ... many thought we would wait out his presidency (a sort of 4 year holding pattern) ... 9/11 changed all that ...people wanted to believe we had a leader (needed to believe he wasn't a moron in over his demented head)

Another notch in the list of * failures.

6. Answer: Al Gore would have READ the HartRudman Report on Global Terror
that was handed to the WH on Jan 30, 2001, and would have implemented its urgent proposals for Homeland Security.

Bush REFUSED to read it.

16. Gore would have read the PDB of August 6, 2001 as well.
Maybe Gore would have actually worked that month instead of "clearing brush"

9. Then the terrorist won!
If they want to use that line, we should just come back with the mantra that if we let 9/11 change everything, then we let the terrorist win.

10. because it is not true
we were attacked on US soil in our African embassies; we were attacked when the USS Cole almost sank. The Navy Yards in the philiipines were attacked, but MSM ignored it. We have had attacks on the World Trade center threatened and actually take place. (the bombing in the garage for ex) 9/11 CHANGED NOTHING except provide cover for the most miserable, evil, power-hungry group of incompetants in office take over even more power for personal gain, and for other nepharious reasons.

12. 9/11 changed NOTHING. It was a terrible blow to our Country,
but certainly no more than Pearl Harbor.
I refuse to let WHOMEVER attacked us on 9/11 define the history of this great Nation as pre- and post- this one horrible day;if we do, doesn't that mean that THEY have WON???
That THEY'VE changed and defined us??.....

13. 8 years elapsed between the first WTC bombing and 9-11.
"We were attacked almost 5 years ago and we've not been attacked since."

And the point is?

14. Emergency Response is Emergency Response
Edited on Tue May-23-06 02:05 PM by Coastie for Truth
Emergency Response = Emergency Response from attack or nature
Mass Care = Mass Care from attack or nature
Mass Sheltering = Mass Sheltering from atack or nature
Restoration of Order = Restoration of Order from attack or nature
Restoration of Utilities and Services = Restoration of Utilities and Services from attack or nature

NO IT DIDN'T - GEORGE AND HIS TEAM OF CHERTOFF AND BROWNIE STILL SCREWED UP
