Good grief. Celebrating the reduction of carbon emissions by the elimination of the World Trade Center on 9/11/01.....

These people are truly despicable.

Let him and his minions do what they will.
I’m not going to listen to him or respect his proclaimations or his commie agenda.
I have my own agenda.

I will NEVER!, ever view 9/11 as anything possitive. My country (our country was attacked) .The only possitive was the nations’ momentary resolve to dismiss B.S. and get to the heart of the matter. The persecution of the CIA for doing a job well done is UNAMERICAN! The white house and liberal agenda to hate this country is UNANERICAN!

How dare they “Spin” that into something other than what is was , is! If I had been of age, I would have joined a military service. I tried but was told I past the age.

So I cry and remember on 9/11. Every year! Since 2001. How dare they?! Let's call them what they are TERRORIST! Scotland letting this guy go was wrong!!!!!

One less country I will visit and leave AMERICAN dollars.

I consider this an insult to the memory of the people who were murdered in cold blood on 9/11, as well as an insult to all those who have worked, and perhaps died, since then to right that wrong.

September 11th is proclaimed!

“By a joint resolution approved December 18, 2001
(Public Law 107-89), the Congress has designated
September 11 of each year as ``Patriot Day.’’

I say no double-dipping for national day of servitude, especially by the minimal numbers comprising the “hip hop caucus”! Who is in this caucus? The “stop snitchin” crew? The “i’ll pop a cap in yo azz” mob? The “mean mug, catch a slug” gang?

Puh-lease... it’s bad enough head pimp has made it rain all over their bogus non-profits, do we really have to recognize and bow down to said entities?

* Grows the number of volunteers nationwide to 250,000, up from 75,000.

o Silver Scholarships and Encore Fellowships: These programs offer Americans, age 55 or older, post-career service opportunities as well as entrance into new careers in the public or nonprofit sector. Silver Scholars will be able to earn up to $1,000 in exchange for 350 hours of service.
