Yes, this is a vanity, but I seriously want to know the answer to this question:

Where was then-state-senator Barack Obama on September 11, 2001?

Not looking for a smart-aleck answer. This is a serious question for which I hope there are serious answers.

He was enjoying His Pet Goat. Not the book, a real goat.

Better question is why didn't he enlist on 9/12/01.

My brother and I, two old farts, tried to reup. They wouldn't take us but we went to the recruiter. Me Army and him Navy.

Feeling empathy for the poor terrorists. What, oh what, could have done to deserve this?

I read, obviously at the time as a State Senator, that he was either at a speaking engagement or some sort of event and heard about it on the way there. Within days, he lamented that we must have learn to understand why the poor, downtrodden of the middle east would do this. Of course, he was wrong. The men were very educated and middle to upper class.

Who knows..you see the gate keepers, our MSM rulers, did not tell us during the campaign, nor did they mention anything he said or did that day.

I read just today something about it. He was in a limousine, on his way to give a speech—something like that.

Anyway, he doesn’t seem to have been directly involved.

Where Was Obama on 9/11/01?

Stupid question. He was “Present”, of course.

In the Illinois state Senate, I just read an article about it today on comcast.net. Can't find it now, but he didn't do anything special. Then a few days later he released a statement saying, I'm not kidding, that we have to get to the root causes of such acts. You know, poverty, resentment, ect. The kind of nuanced crap you'd expect your typical lefty to say. On the same day President Bush was on the bull horn with the firefighters the article said.

So, yeah.

Great question. Don't remember reading or hearing Obama at any time saying “I was...” in reference to 9/11 like the rest of us do.
