2. I hate to sound so pessimistic, but I honestly
Edited on Sat Apr-10-04 02:31 AM by mohinoaklawnillinois
don't think that day will become historic.

I heard tonight that if the WH does declassify the PDB it will be redacted (sp?). The so-called "liberal media" will spin themselves silly and anyone that has the audacity to say anything to the contrary will be labeled as a wing-nut, an unpatriotic American or worse.

Face it, we don't have a free media in the US anymore. Back in 1973/1974 there were journalists that had some "cajones". Not anymore, they're all in debt to their "corporate masters".

As to Aug. 6, 2001, I was at work as well, but my focus at that point was about a Gaelic football club in Chicago winning their 11th North American Championship. Sounds silly, I know, but that's the truth.

BTW that particular team did win in San Francisco on Sept. 2, 2001 and when they arrived back in Chicago on Sept. 3rd a great celebration went on until the early hours of Sept. 4, 2001.

Looking back remembering what myself and other friends of mine were concentrating on seems totally silly. But wasn't the cover story of Time Magazine that week something about the shark attacks in Florida?

Bottom line, the American public and the families of the victims of the 9-11-2001 attacks were blind-sided that early fall day.

However, the frauds that are now in charge of the US government and the others that are as equally responsible for what happened that awful day will never be called on it.
