I have never been politically active before
You seem to know a lot for a novice. It is coming to the point where some political knowledge is a survival skill.

<< I dont see why half the country believes Bush. he tells so many obvious lies. I guess 9-11 made a lot of people sheep willing to support ANYONE in charge >>

Bush had a 51% approval rating BEFORE 9/11.

Yep, that's the way a liberal thinks...just get 9-11 behind us and let's get everybody to forget past history. Then they can work on each others emotions and distort the truth while rewriting the history books.

For those that just don't understand...

Let's face the facts... there are just some people in this world that will never be our friends. They will work their whole lives to destroy the United States of America and all that it stands for.

Go look at this series of pictures and see what you think. See what these people are comfortable doing. See mothers and fathers with proud smiles, walk their babies through the streets as blood gushes from cuts on their heads. Like a pitbull, these people are bred to hate and kill. Blood is an elixir for them. We cannot confront this rage with compassion and understanding.

Click the links below and they will take you to few pictures in a series. Each will have a paragraph of information about what you are seeing. I warn you, these pictures may be very disturbing to some but remember, these people are joyous in this occasion!

But by 2004, 9-11 will be well behind us. We will have bigger problems.

911 would be behind us now if it weren't for Bush and his self serving cabinet that "fans the flames" of terrorism paranoia.

We've had terrorism for years- there was the first WTC bombing and that guy that tried to get though to Seattle on new years 2000. We caught those. The 911 people got through, which was a terrible tragic event- we need to beef up security now, but Bush has shut down the *entire system* to deal with this threat which is somewhat minimal relatively speaking. I'm sure these bogus "terror alerts" are the first thing Kerry dumps.
