The Liberal media is trying to put up a blinder for the anniversory of America's darkest day in a vain effort to protect their Messiah, Barack Obama.

The word "Terrorism" wasn't used ONE TIME during the entire Demoncrat Convention, but that doesn't mean 9/11 didn't happen.


YouTube - 9/11: Remembering the Jumpers [Edit 1]

YouTube - 9/11: South Tower Collapse (ABC Live)

Here's how I feel about it:

"They took all the footage off my tv. They said "It's too disturbing" for you
and me. It'll just breed anger - that's what the experts say. If it was up to me I'd show it everyday. Some say this country's just looking for a fight. After 9/11 man I'd have to say that's right.

Have you forgotten - how it felt that day - to see your homeland under fire and her people blow away

I'm not surprised. Even shortly after it happened, the mainstream media was showing unwillingness to play certain footage.

What is emblazened on my brain is the image of people jumping out the windows of those tall, tall buildings. I have a terror of heights. I do not even like to look out the window in a 4 story building, much less jump from the top of a skyscraper, even if there were fire at my back.

Haven't forgotten. Some prefer to not keep opening the sores on people who are still trying to heal from this tradgedy. Some people are personally hurt by these things.

Well said. And compassionate conservatism is yet again proven an oxymoron.

It probably has to do with there contracts for ads. Companies don't want there products being associated with such a horrific event. If they cant get ad time in for money, they don't air the material. Journalism died years ago. Its been taken over by advertisers and miss-management.

No one will ever make you forget. It is better for you not to force it on others. Thank you.

What happen to reporting the news AS IT IS?

The bottom line is Liberals are glad the 3,000 Americans went through a living hell on 9/11 because they view America as the source of evil in the world.
