Heartbreaking.... a haunting song even without the context of all those reactions...

Another great tribute is below. Uses the same song and adds some of the images... Someone else may have posted it already. I have saved it.

Never Forget: Digital Archives - 9/11 Slide show

I have lost my optimism on this war and this administration

As long as Pres. Bush listens to Cheney and Rumsfield and not Powell and the liberal media we will win.

I think you speak prematurely. The war on terrorism is just beginning. It really does take time to put all the pieces in place and do it right and that is what this Administration is doing.

What we have already done is pretty impressive. The Taliban is all but wiped out in Afghanistan with minimal U.S. casualties and Al Qaida is on the run and have thus far not been able to conduct any additional acts of terrorism. Remember all those weeks after 9/11 waiting for the other shoe to drop? Well we have been terrorism free for nearly a year now and unfortunately there are those who just want to snipe and take potshots at Bush. Apparently, because we haven't nuked Mecca yet or seen big things blow up on TV, there are people who assume we are sitting on our hands and doing nothing.

There is no doubt in my mind that our job over there is just beginning and when we are finished, the terrorists, or what is left of them, will rue the day they crashed those airliners into our buildings on 9/11.

I would also like to discuss the disturbing photos at the top of this thread. At first I wondered why those people trapped up top jumped to their deaths instead of waiting for a rescue attempt. I now realize that the temperatures must have been unbearable up there from the fires below and that jumping to a sure death below was preferable to literally burning to death above. We should never forget the horrible choice those people faced that day.

Only time


Who can say where the road goes
Where the day flows
Only time...

And who can say if your love grows
As your heart chose
Only time...

Who can say why your heart sighs
As your love flies
Only time...

And who can say why your heart cries
When your love lies
Only time...

Who can say when the roads meet
That they might be
In your heart...

And who can say when the day sleeps
If the night keeps all your heart
...night keeps all your heart...

Who can say if your love grows
As your heart chose
Only time...

And who can say where the road goes
Where the day flows
Only time...

Who knows? Only time...
Who knows? Only time...

Nah, its not just me.

I have lost faith in this administration in the "war on terror." Inviting Prince Bandar to Crawford? Please.

Saudi Arabia is the source of the terror.

Why is Norman Mineta still the Secretary of Transportation? I guess because his "no profiling ever" policies are congruent with those of his boss.

Listening to all the "Attacking Iraq distracts from the war on terror" talk just makes me ill - attacking Iraq would be a continuation of the war on terror.

I am sure that Freepers care enough. But all of the tentativeness in the press and the public and the world has given our national apparatus pause - it has become timid.

Afghanistan is releasing hundreds of Taliban and al Quaeda prisoners in exchange for some petty thieves held in Pakistan. Our response is?

Saudi Arabia paid money to bin Laden post 9/11. Our response is?

They pay money to Palestinian suicide bombers' families. Our response is?

Germany withholds information on terrorist suspects. Our response is?

Egypt, which is the recipient of a billion or so of our tax dollars annually opposes US action in Iraq and our support of Israel in the same war on terror we are supposedly engaging in. Our response is?

The al Aqsa Martyr's Brigade - a part of Yasir Arafat's Fatah organization - killed 5 Americans in Israel. Our response is?

Do you get my point here?

You and I and other Freepers may care, but as a nation, we have forgotten the horrors of 9/11, and prepare to wallow in sorrow.

Gone are the days where even a squish like McCain could say to our enemies, "May God have mercy on your soul, for the United States will not."

Here we are, afraid to carry nail clippers onto the plane, and worried about what Belgium thinks about taking out Saddam Hussein.

You and I may care, but the United States, alas, does not.

As a rule...I REALLY hate Enya.

Must be the Irish in me.
She's the epitome of elevator music.

Like Clannad though :-)

Sorry, but sometimes I am just disgusting! I euphamistically call it an irreverent sense of humor. It's kind of a curse.

I sure wish I could remember where that Bush/Blair "Men in Black" photoshop job is.

Here's a Bush/Powell MIB graphic:
