The memories of 9-11 will not fade from the memories of those who experienced that fateful day of some fifteen years ago, nor should they. That Day has become a part of the nation's history as much as Lexington and Concord, Bunker Hill, Gettysburg, Pearl Harbor and so many more. Mere men however, will always do as those before them have. So just as surely as the cave fires of the ancient Paleo Indians dimmed as time marched on, the sights of that clear September day of 2001, will shrink to little more than tiny specks of light in the vast cosmos. But for those who lived That Day, wept That Day, held our loved ones close on That Day, despaired That Day, vowed revenge That Day, That Day will remain forever seared into our memories until the day we rejoin the thousands who perished on That Day!
Both Obama and Lincoln are adopted sons of the state of Illinois. One was born in the neighboring state of Kentucky and the other, well take your pick! One boldly crossed a line, the Potomac River, setting in motion events that would kill over 500,000 thousand and displace millions sending them fleeing north to escape the destruction of war, so he could save the nation. While the other retreated from a red line of his own making, setting in motion events that would kill over 500,000 thousand and displace millions sending them fleeing north to escape the destruction of war, so he could save his sorry ass from a possible political disaster.
I was just thinking
I remember that day vividly. I will never forget. I will never forgive and I will never submit.
ReplyDeleteHave a fabulous day my friend. ☺
Cool text Ron. I'm going to have to bookmark that one.
ReplyDeleteNEVER FORGET!
I'm as mad or more mad today than I was on 9-12-2001.
ReplyDeleteAnd these weren't military people. They were all innocents.
Yea, never forget.
