The speech he gave to first responders from the trade center rubble was amazing and perfect.
(We can't hear you!) Well I can hear you, and soon the people who did this will hear from all of us!
Another thing that sticks out is there was this one image taken from out in the harbor or maybe Staten Island, and you see the smoke/debris/dust obscuring all of south Manhattan, but the Statue of Liberty stood out in the clear and the sun. It was like a sign that no matter what, we will endure.
I had not heard about the rumor of the sniper at the end of the runway, but there were so many rumors flying around that day.
Then the two F-16 pilots who scrambled I think to go after Flight 93 and who launched without armament, and they had already agreed that if they needed to take the plane down they were going to kamikaze it - that's an "America, frick Yeah!" moment.

ummm yeah I can. Pretty much every american in the country was saying the same thing. It was actually a beautiful side effect from an otherwise tragic and heartbreaking day...

That was before our nation was radically transformed. It was a great time then. Not so much anymore.

It's amazing how much he aged in his 8 years. He looked so young in 2001
shite, look at Obama. He looked young too 7yrs ago. A couple terms as POTUS probably ages you double the amount of yrs you've been in office.

I'd say good sniper to take out anyone/thing trying to harm AFO. Also, yeah for that AFOne Pilot being forward thinking ... what if there HAD been an inside job??

I'm glad he did, but a fricking 3-legged dog would've pushed that button ... not a real big stretch there.

Drone strikes have been steadily declining for the last 5 years, but you and many others act like Obama's a terrorist killing machine. Maybe they're running out of targets? I doubt it. But yea, Obama strikes fear everywhere.
