Want to make a Right Winger's head explode?
Remember 9/11/2001, the date that is revered by RW fanatics, probably even more then July 4th, 1776? All those firefighters and policemen that gave their lives going into the Twin Towers to help people? Those men were heroes, right? Here's the kicker.

3. They don't care...
they got all of the political capital they needed from them in 2004. It didn't quite work in 2008, it'll be interesting if they try and use it again in 2012.
