A 9/11 Promise

Tomorrow, I will not post a single word about Obama, from Obama, or from Obama's family and friends or staff.

I will not post any photos or videos about Obama. I will not even mention his name. I do this in honor of all the 9/11 victims and their families.

I’m in. No mention of the Kenyan stain for 24 hours.

Thanks, Joe.

I intend to remind our fellow Freepers tomorrow, that it's inappropriate to mention Bozo's name on 9/11. We can set aside this one day to honor the fallen.

I’ll comply.

However, if the topic becomes terrorists in general, mentally I must include him.

I understand, but in honor of our fallen, we shouldn't speak his name for at least this one important day.

For myself, I'm going to tape his name to my toilet tank, so that I can give him his due tomorrow.

Great idea! I’m tuning out all liberals tomorrow. Well, more than I normally do.

Some of the victims of the 9/11 attack on the World Trade Center were ‘muzzie’ workers...

Joined up just yesterday so you could remind us all of that, eh?

"And I promise to NOT make 911 a “day of service”. I will remember all of the people that died that day, and remember who killed them."

Dittos!

As I put out my flag in honor of the day, I thought to myself, "The G----ment is trying to take this memorial away from us, but we are not going to let it go. People all over the country will display their flags, go to church, offer special prayers, sing the songs and watch the videos with tears, gather in patriotic rallies and programs, and the blankety-blanks in DC are not going to be able to stop us." I like that.

It is not for the government to dictate how we grieve or remember. No matter what government says or does, each of us will remember in a way that we feel is appropriate. They can’t dictate our thoughts or emotions. I wish they’d get that through their heads and stop trying to do so.
