I'm still not calmed down and feel sick by the entire thing.
Dear freeper jmstein7 has made an easy-to-use format to send them a letter telling them what we think.

I have never in my life been as angry as I am with this commission.
My husband had to take over salad chopping duties because I was shaking so hard...I really scared him when I started to wave the knife around and yelling louder than he's ever heard me yell.
does it rhyme with "Mustard Duck?"

Mega Dittos ( a little Rush lingo there). It seems to be everyones' fault but Atta and comrades. I'm sick to death of this so-called Commission. They are intent on placing blame anywhere but where it belongs.
The terrorists did it. We didn't.
Think about how hard they work, and the lengths that they will go to try to defeat our President. We may be angry, but the truth is that they are absolutely terrified. Which would you rather be?
They know that a lame-duck Dubya is the scariest thing to a Liberal because he will do whatever the hell he wants to do with no consideration for reelection. When Bush is reelected, there will be no more delays on judges, there will be drilling in Alaska, and there will be a constitutional amendment against Gay Marriage. The Liberals know this so they have enlisted every branch of government to try to defeat Bush. Sucks to be them, because Bush sets the agenda, and the ship is turning into the wind.
I have a trademark on that, so you owe me bucks.
Im just now hearing of what happened today.....Im pissed beyond words....
The Commission refused to call any of the firefighters & police officers from the ranks to testify. Their excuse was they were only having those "in authority" testify. If they were truly interested in coming up with constructive suggestions on how future 9/11's could be prevented, and how those agency's response could be improved, they should be meeting with the line personnel.
Thanks, PD.
If I was closer tomorrow I'd go to NYC to the hearings myself.
This commission, this pack of worthless, has-been nincompoops with their 20/20 hindsight are now defaming and belittling people who actually tried to DO something on 9/11, and they are doing it all so they can so grandstand before the cameras and revel in the applause of a partisan audience. How utterly disgusting.
The first thing we need to learn, if we haven't already, is that when a jetliner slams into your skyscaper, get the hell out of there as soon as you can. Don't wait for Ted Kennedy or Jamie Gorelick to come to your rescue.
I cannnot believe the press paints these victims families into their reports as if ther reactions lend any validity to the task at hand. That is plain, asshat wrong.
But let us not fail to ask hard questions as to how this happened. One of my first reactions on that day was, "Damn. How did we let this happen."
NEVER AGAIN.
Im anxious to see Rudy tomorrow, I hope they televise it, cause he'll eat them for lunch!
Next time this country faces a crisis like 9/11, let's just sent the 9/11 families and the 9/11 committee in to handle things. The rest of us, Dubya, Rumsfield, et al, and the police, firemen, paramedics, doctors, nurses will all sit by and wait for their instructions as to what to do next.
Of course, the 9/11 families and 9/11 inquisition squad will, of course, notify all of us beforehand to let us know exactly what will be coming down, at what time and on what date and in what city.
Just in time to torpedo the Republican convention that will be held in NYC at the end of July. The 'pubs let the 'rats and their media buddies slam dunk them every time.
When I think that those firemen and policemen risked their lives to save the Jersey widow's husbands, and then spent months digging out the bodies, and the widows treat them this way, I could easily stroke out.
What must those firemen and policemen be thinking tonight?
What must the wives of the dead policemen and firemen be thinking tonight?
May those panel members rot in he!! for their actions.
These particular widows are hacks. And I know there are other families of 9-11 victims that these hack-hags don't speak for whatsoever.
It's pathetic isn't it? A disaster strikes, and we are so quick to asign blame, to focus on the systems problems, human deficiencies and process failures that were inevitable in an attack of this magnitude.
The 9-11 commission lost it's soul today. It willfully ignored how the FD and PD responded heroically. It willfully ignored the collective and individual acts of selflessness and sacrifice.
This might just work to garner support for Bush in the long run.
