We can each say it for ourselves. we elected a President to do business for us, not be our national Preacher and soul keeper. why doesn't Mr. Rich write a column on the subject to jog our hearts instead of carrying on about how some other person didn't do it for him and us? and fak to say, sept 11 is just another day to me. August 17th matters to me. August 19th does. And Mother's day, whatever day it falls on. on those days, someone dear to me died. no one I know died on Sept 11th. thoughts to those who knew someone who died on that day. but I doubt they give a fak about me on August 19th. seriously, enough already.

We need to investigate … Here is a link to an interview with a scientist that is very much worth watching. He found evidence contrary to the common widely accepted belief of what brought WTC down. youtube.com There was also an American professor who published a similar report but no one heard from him after that. And by the way, if you search on Youtube for 911, you will come across a movie called “Loose Change”. It is shocking to say the least. youtube.com You can find it in shorter lengths and different releases on Youtube as well… It takes time for all the facts to be known, but they shall be known over time. like the scientist said in the interview, "they are unstoppable".

What was so grievously missing from Obama’s address was any feeling for what has happened to our country during the seven-and-a-half-year war whose “end” he was marking. I saw that comment somewhere else. Where did it say in the president's job description he has to emote for us? I do my own emoting...thank you very much. This mood has not lifted and may be thickening as we trudge toward Year 10 in Afghanistan. But Obama only paid it lip service. It’s a mystery why a candidate so attuned to the nation’s pulse, most especially on the matter of war, has grown tone deaf in office. On Tuesday, Obama asked the country to turn the page on Iraq as if that were as easy as, say, voting for him in 2008. His brief rhetorical pivot from the war to the economy only raised the question of why the crisis of joblessness has not merited a prime-time Oval Office speech of its own. I think the NY Times expects too much from Obama. I wish they had expected half as much from Bush.....the country wouldn't be in the mess it is in right now.
