2. You know what
You know what I am tired of my own government using terror tactics to get votes I am tired of the republican party dancing on the graves of some 3000 people like it was a birth day gift wrapped up for them use everytime there poll numbers drop....

This was really bad...really bad..and makes me question not only McCain's judgment ..but his soul..does he have one...just lovely...

15. I hear you
Every-time we have an election they have to use this tactic. I
think this is disgusting,dis-hearting. If they think they are
going to get my vote because there going scare me there nuts.
unlike some people I know, I am not a trader from to my own
party. I wouldn't vote for a repuke, if you were trying to
force me. I cannot imaging howe these families of 9/11 must
feel about them using there people who died as a tactic to win
an election out fear. Come on it's time to grow up. I still
believe as many others Bush knew in advance of these attacks.
There is no way, no how , no Republican. Mcccain claims to be
different then Bush. then why is he using the same thing Bush
used when he was being elected a second time. MMMMM . This
country is real trouble if he becomes president. I was talking
with someone today, and they said Obama didn't even pass a
bill, well thats because george Bush veto those bills. come on
wake up and smell the BS, that brewing in the U.S..

4. That's the fucking republicans for you.
The only message they know are the neanderthal concepts of "fear", "terror", "patriotism"... Oh, and the biggest message of the republicans I almost left out, "I've got mine, fuck you"...

Sorry dad, you're really one of them now, fuck you too...

Now I see him for the Republican tool he is.

9. I would have never considered myself..
part of the "angry" left before, but after that blatant exploitation of the losses of our wounded nation for political gain....

That was NOT a tribute, that was more fear-mongering, and it is the most disgusting thing that has come out of the bowels of that soulless party's convention yet. I hope every single media form in America condemns that charade. I hope that whoever made the decision to play that, and anyone else that uses fear-mongering as a "tool"....I want to get up a posse, go pick them up, and drop them off in Iraq, Afghanistan, or wherever, and let the terrorists do whatever they want with them. They have no respect for America, no respect for the people who died, and they have no respect for those who lost loved ones, and I want them out of my fucking country now! They don't deserve the priviledge to be here!!!

Sorry, I am a little upset. I probably should wait until I am calm to write.

11. "Now we know"
Clinton knew when he had Richard Clark and his anti- terrorist committee meet EVERY DAY (yes, even Sundays!) and would read (and understand!) DPBs longer than 1 page.

Cheney's group, on the other hand, NEVER MET until Sept 10, and Bush can only have a 1 page brief read to him.

Clinton knew! Why did it take 9/11 for the Saudi-loving Bushies to figure it out? Bush was in charge then. Bush let it happen.

That crappy "tribute" should remind every American who let them do it.

12. Screw Brokaw
and 'The Greatest Generation' was unreadable trash.

KO was right, as he usually is.

13. Poor Keith.
I didn't lose anyone in that attack, so I'm offended, but not hurt. Keith was forced to watch, for the (x)th time, the murder of several of his friends.

The Republicans who continue to exploit this tragedy for their own gain should be ashamed.

The people who fall for this fearmongering, and vote Republican, should also be ashamed.

As for who is the riskier choice: The man who wants to use diplomacy as his first option, and war as his last, or the man who wants war as his first, last, and only option?

14. 9/11 and POW are the only things the rethugs have going for them.
Fear and sympathy all induced into one package.
