The repubs need to shut the hell up about 9/11…

Well…on this anniversary of the 9/11 attacks, we have all the damn repubs out there going on and on about how terrible the attacks were and that they appreciate the armed forces and what they do about protecting “freedom” here…and that it was the worst attack int he history of the country…you know what? Shut the hell up repubs…it was your president who fomented the January 6th attack and all of you supported trying to overturn the election and your continuing effort to keep half of the country from voting…that is a worse attack than 9/11 and if you had your way, there would be no democracy to protect and not a damn one of you chastised the idiot trump for stealing and selling national secrets that has gotten people killed all over the world…so just shut the hell up unless you are willing to stop attacking this country and support free and fair elections for everyone…and stop attacking every woman in this country with your bullshit….I justĀ  don’t want to hear a thing from you anymore…you are no different than the 9/11 attackers….geez…

JEB! really is the more stupid one….

Well…just had to make one more comment on the debate last night when ole JEB! praised his idiot younger brother with the lie “he kept us safe”….and I just couldn’t believe the rest of the idiots on stage just let that one go…yeah, JEB! he kept us safe except for the 2,790 people that were killed in the Trade Center and the other 300 Americans that were killed by terrorists during the rest of his terms…and even dumber than that statement is the new tweet that JEB! sent out this morning showing the idiot younger brother standing in the rubble of the WTC with a little JEB! logo in the corner…rubble that included the remains of the dead from those attacks which he disrespected by using the rubble pile for a photo op….I am beginning to wonder if JEB! really has anything between his ears but air….stupid, stupid, JEB!

9/11 is not a politcal prop…

Well…since it’s 9/11 today, I have a few thoughts about how the right has used their fake reverence for the losses on that day to score political points at every turn. If they had any true feelings, Glenn Beck and Sarah Palin wouldn’t be staging political rallies in Alaska today to further their crazy brand of patriotism that cynically uses the wrongheaded fear of Islam to stoke the fires of hatred for their own financial gain. If the right’s feelings were true, you wouldn’t have had Giuliani running for president with his only stump speeches consisting of a noun, a verb, and 9/11. Of course, you’d have to be a hermit to have missed the pandering the right has done to score political points with the opposition to the Park 51 project in Manhattan…and before you say it, no, the left has not been involved to any comparable degree.

What has happened to the integrity of the Republican Party? Of course when you have people like Newt, Palin, and Beck considered leaders, this is what you get. What happened to the GOP of old that didn’t protest the building of Shinto shrines in Hawaii where the sneak attacks by Japan on December 7th killed almost 4,000 soldiers and sailors?

Who is going to restore the reverence for a day that is still fresh in the collective memory of our country? Don’t count on it being the right….and every time they sow dissension using the 9/11 attacks, they are giving Osama bin Laden just what he wanted; disruption in our society and moving it toward his vision of the world. Is this what they want? Geez….
