"Six years ago we were united as a nation"

A destructive myth, IMO.

RE: "A destructive myth"

I agree.

Six years ago we were united as a nation against a common enemy — 300 million Americans resolved to defeat Islamic extremists.

Yes, until about noon Pacific time.

Within hours the best and brightest Bee brains had an editorial blaming us for the attack, we shared the blame along with the attackers who were just trying to get our attection because we refuse to "understand" the rest of the world.

Within days of 9/11 liberals were calling the shows I listen to and emphatically stating that no way would they fly the Flag. The Flag was too Republican, they said.

Almost immediately the debate in the MSM was between those who would wear a Flag pin on the air and those who never wear a U.S. Flag pin on the air. They're professionals, you see.

A few weeks after the attacks the Sacramento Bee publisher was booed off the stage as she repeated the Bee editors' opinion and condemned Bush / Ashcroft for being mean to accused terrorists.

As the invasion of Iraq was being discussed there were MSM types like Ellen Ratner letting it be known that she hoped Bush would fail in Iraq because it would help the Democrats in 2004, I believe that was her main reason. Of course Bush failing would mean many U.S. dead, but hey! ... it's for the Party.

Very destructive myth.

They only love us when we are dying.
