Nine years ago, outside of a few scheming Muslim extremists, no one could have imagined a mosque and community center being built in a building so close to Ground Zero that its roof experienced structural damage from one of the planes' landing gear.
No one would have guessed that the US Government would join forces with a foreign nation to sue a US state for drafting and passing a localized version of the Federal immigration laws.
It would have been unthinkable to believe that the US Government would have taken control of most of the country's major banks, most of the car companies and purposely driven medical insurance companies out of business.
Nine years ago, who could have guessed that Congress and the President would make laws that would have to be passed in order to know what was contained in the bills (for those unfamiliar with this statement, this was Nancy Pelosi's big, final sales pitch for the passage of healthcare reform)?
Several months after our President promised healthcare would not add a dime to the deficit (which is now larger than all previous debts of all administrations combined...all in less than two years), but would save our economy, he is claiming that no one even suggested that healthcare passage would not cost a lot. With the first annual insurance renewal after the bill's passage, the average increase to insurance premiums (by design) was at least 18%. When all pieces of this legislation go into effect, there will be a special tax on the purchase of gold coins, fines from the IRS and jail time for those who do not comply with the new insurance policy requirements.
Nine years ago, it seemed that America had become reunified, firmly standing behind the Founding Principles of and standing up for freedom in America. Surely no one would have dreamed that the President of the United States nine years later would have single handedly destroyed the economies of Las Vegas, industrial cities in which private jets and even RVs are manufactured and any city, county or region in which off-shore drilling is a major contributor to the economic well-being.
Anyone who was there in NYC chanting: "USA, USA, USA!" while President Bush addressed them with a megaphone would have laughed at you if you told them that the POTUS, nine years into the future, would be bowing to foreign heads of state (and the mayor of Tampa), or doing a world apology tour for all of America's shortcomings, or delivering a speech in Cairo outlining Islam's contributions to the world (most of which were either pre-Muslim Persia or more than 1300 years in the past).
In fine, if a September 12, 2001 American could see what our own US Government would become nine years later, they would never believe it. That day, it was difficult to find a home, office, freeway overpass, car, semi, billboard or lapel without an American flag adorning it. Scripture verses were ubiquitous on banners in public view. The professional offense-takers of the Left were nowhere to be seen or heard.
Nearly 3000 Americans died because of a poisonous ideology that differs so much from our own spectrum of ideologies that demands for understanding show the ineptitude and intellectual simplicity of the demander. What we call an understanding nature is seen by our enemies as weakness. What is polite interaction in our society is a joke in theirs. Athenians believed that opening their society and education system to the Spartans would make friends out of enemies...this naivete led to their eventual destruction. So, too, our society believes itself to be so swell that we cannot fathom the idea of another society not loving us after getting to know us.
America IS great! Her people are the most generous, fun-loving, hard-working people on the planet. If our enemies were rational human-beings, letting them in to get to know us would be a brilliant idea. Unfortunately, they are not. They are demented degenerates who feel, in the deepest corners of their souls, that we are a threat to them. And in a sense we are. We are all about freedom and liberty. Our society does not smile upon immorality and filth, but we do not take every possible measure to prevent it. Therein lies the threat to Islamic terrorists: we allow people to make decisions in the their own lives that are less-than-prudent.
They cannot have that. They stone women to death (even their own daughters) for being seen in town holding hands with a boy. Women are subjugated in as many ways as possible, because as women, they possess characteristics that can tempt and distract the holy, holy men around them.
We, as Americans, are tolerant of other races, ethnicities and holders of differing religious and political viewpoints. Their interpretation of Islam cannot be tolerant. One must convert, pay significantly higher tax rates, leave or die.
These individuals only assimilate with a tolerant society for the purpose of studying it, then dismantling it.
These are some of the mental deficiencies that define the men who killed our fellow Americans nine years ago, and continue to plot against us today.
May we know and always REMEMBER what makes America special without wavering. May we always hold in solemn remembrance the memories of those who died. May God bless the mourners on this Patriots' Day. And may God bless America!
