Amen. I have only recently begun to pray that my feelings of fate subside, that I gain sufficient control over my emotions to not hate anybody. Like you, I have not succeeded. Your prayer is mine, too.

A related story is here: Running in the footsteps of heros. A group of Milwaukee firefighters are participating in the Siller Memorial run in NYC later this month. This run commemorates those firefighters who ran through the Battery Park tunnel only to lose their lives at the WTC when the towers fell. The lady firefighters have elected to up the challenge one step further and to make the run in full firefighting gear, as did many of the fallen NYC firefighters. They have been working out all summer to build their endurance for the event.

Sobering, to say the least.

Reading some of those comments, it’s no wonder we are in the shape we’re in, those people are truly despicable.

Hard to look at that picture and not have tears streaming down your face.

What the “Truthers” don’t understand is that the majority of those guys are of Irish decent, both Green and Orange, who went into those buildings.
Does anyone really think us Irish would allow someone to murder our children and not go unpunished?

If only 10 people loved each of the 2,976 killed on 9/11, there are at least 29,760 broken hearts among us. What would those 2,976 people have accomplished in the world, and in their families’ lives? What would their offspring have done for society? Will the survivors and those who helped clean up the rubble ever be the same? How much has hate grown since 9/11? How many of our freedoms have we relinquished? How many of our soldiers have we sacrificed?

THIS is the true cost of September 11th.

What is wrong with those people. I believe many of these “truthers” are Muslims and their communist pals posting in the name of Americans.

How many of our soldiers have we sacrificed?

The thousands of men and women who have died in their country's service since 9-11, and the hundreds of thousands who have served without having to pay the ultimate price for liberty, are, in my view, the unsung heroes of this day.

I would ask everyone who reads this to stop for at least a moment and pray for all of those who have served or who are serving, and their loved ones.

There are still many who are of their own free will going into harm's way.

On a personal note, please pray for my eldest son, Matthew. His unit is shipping out to Iraq shortly. He's now enjoying his last week at home with his wife and two daughters.

Right after 9/11 the muslims denied that muslims would do this and blamed the Mosad (jews)....

This was picked up in Europe and morphed into the “CIA” did it...

Inturn...the Moonbat left here picked up with “Bush did it...9/11 was an inside Job”...

Fueled by Alex Jones...who swings both ways when he’s seliing books and DvD’s to any sucker who will listen...

In my book, he is still a nobody.
