Unfortunately, the guy ruined it with his self-serving, partisan political text at the end. The current war in Iraq has nothing to do with 9/11, and a lot of us are left wondering why our government forgot. They forgot about the horrors of that day, and who did it, and who we are fighting in the war on terrorism. It wasn't the tens of thousands of now-dead Iraqis. It was a band of terrorists, mostly Saudi, trained and organized out of Afghanistan by Al-Qaeda and under the protection of the Taliban.
Some of us who now strongly oppose our war of aggression and occupation of Iraq strongly supported the war on terror and the overthrow of the Taliban in Afghanistan, and the hunt for the terrorists responsible for that horrible day. OBL and Al-qaeda were/are public enemy number one. However, if you watch and listened in this political race, Bush hasn't mentioned his name in a long, long time. He must have forgotten that day.
Sorry for going political here, and I don't want to start an arguement. But it makes me shake my head to think about how we dropped the war on terror to instead attack and occupy Iraq, who even the 9/11 Commission agrees had nothing to do with 9/11. I won't forget.
