C'mon, even here where almost everyone despises Obama and the "liberal media" and where posters opine that Obama is incapable of love and wants to drive America into failure, this has to hit an off key, right? Ed
Not with me. Why with you?

It's worse than what Karen posted, Ed. The Nets stopped showing jumpers the afternoon of 9/11. They "didn't want to incite anti-Muslim behavior."

I have read about that several times from good sources in the last ten years. I am not going to look it up for you now. The general feeling among the nets was that they were afraid of Mosques being burned.

You do know that Lloyd Marcus is a pretty well known Black Conservative, don't you? I respect him, and his opinion....He is paying attention to ALL media and knows where the bias is and isn't.....and says so, most often supporting the new info, if it is new....

His words here are pretty tough to remember and think about.....Our media to this day has said very little about the extremely violent men that took part in the horrors of 9-11, and WHY they did what they did.....

What would think if any of our people decided to do the same thing in any or all Muslim ruled countries?
Do you think the media would want to know WHY? Would they just write that the men (and/or women) who did such a thing wanted to tear down that religious belief?
What if the people who did this were all Muslim but from America? How would that be reported?

Yes, that is a 'set up a Strawman thing' ....but then, we didn't expect 9/11 either......

Marcus Lloyd:
Meanwhile, my fellow Americans were forced to decide whether to burn or jump.

Witnesses saw a young woman high up in one of the towers at a window as flames raged behind her. She made the sign of the cross and did a swan dive out of the window.

Ponder that image when you hear liberal Democrats, progressives, and Obama's pastor of twenty years, Jeremiah Wright, say we got what we deserved on 9/11.

Innocent Americans simply showed up for work. Remember the jumpers.
