Stu Bykofsky | To save America, we need another 9/11
Edited on Fri Aug-10-07 05:53 AM by SkyIsGrey
ONE MONTH from The Anniversary, I'm thinking another 9/11 would help America.

What kind of a sick bastard would write such a thing?

A bastard so sick of how splintered we are politically - thanks mainly to our ineptitude in Iraq - that we have forgotten who the enemy is.

It is not Bush and it is not Hillary and it is not Daily Kos or Bill O'Reilly or Giuliani or Barack. It is global terrorists who use Islam to justify their hideous sins, including blowing up women and children.

Iraq has fractured the U.S. into jigsaw pieces of competing interests that encourage our enemies. We are deeply divided and division is weakness.


America's fabric is pulling apart like a cheap sweater.

What would sew us back together?

Another 9/11 attack.

The Golden Gate Bridge. Mount Rushmore. Chicago's Wrigley Field. The Philadelphia subway system. The U.S. is a target-rich environment for al Qaeda.

He must be off his meds.

1. he's a nasty POS...
a fifth-rate gossip columnist who took over for a fourth-rate gossip columnist (Larry Fields), and, like our resident moron rock and roll 'host' Jerry Blavat, is a failure at every level.

he's a local joke here in Philly.

2. One shudders to think that someone with a complete lack of

knowledge or appreciation for the complexities or interconnectedness of the foes and woes of humanity can so easily become a noise source to be listened to..
Global terrorists ain't it. They are just a visible manifestation of the problem.
How in the hell does a simple minded fish like this get such a big megaphone? Ridiculous. Tiny man/big mouth/ tiny brain.
