9/11

I scarcely feel qualified to comment on the attack 8 years ago. The sheer magnitude of the event domestically and its' ramifications world wide will echo throughout history ... as will our response.

I will simply note that the only vessel for properly honoring the thousands of fallen civilians, the hundreds of police officers and firefighters, the first Americans to fight back - the passengers of Flight 93 - and the 5,159 soldiers as of 9/10/09 that have fallen in our defense in Iraq and Afghanistan, is to remain eternally vigilant against the enemy that even eight years later remains unquestionably committed to his wicked ideology.

I've heard them say "we love death", that they live to kill our freedom. Well they don't understand our history, or they'd know ... we will die to defend it.

If history has taught us one thing it is that the barbarians will forever be at the gates. So I say, let them forever feel the full weight of this Republic.
