Absolutely. I despise President Obama and his administration, but I widely show my support for the brave men and women of the military. God bless our troops!
Yep, what Gator Blue said. There's a difference between supporting the troops in general and agreeing with every military decision our government makes.
Dear Zack,
I think at some point we all need to come to grips with that Q...
Yes coming of age in Vietnam era I have always done that.
Plus living five years in Iowa, the heartland...there is always a veterans' memorial even in towns so tiny they don't even have a grocery store...back to the Civil War … Read more
I support our soldiers and sailors. They have chosen to put our country before their own lives. I believe most of them do so out of strong sense of duty and patriotism.
I do not always support where they have been sent or the reason behind it, meaning the politicians and their questionable motives.
Not until the Omaha World Herald paper ran an article about it with a picture of it recently as part of the news for 9/11. I was amazed. It's evidently made of steel. Really cool.
I was getting dressed for work with the t.v. News on. When they reported the first crash, I was certain it was some bizarre accident. But when the second one followed, I knew we were under attack, and it broke my heart. It only grew worse as the events progressed, and it still brings me … Read more
I was at work in a meeting when it happened. We were viewing someone's presentation on their laptop - projected on a big screen - when they received a headlines update via email.
Without thinking about it, the person clicked on the link and up pops CNN, showing us the towers going down. Needless to say, … Read more
My partner and I had just completed delivering a scathing negative physical security evaluation briefing to a group of "arrogant" government officials. We felt we would lose our jobs but we did tell them the truth. They said an attack could never happen on US soil. Needless to say the world changed that day.
I have a sneaking suspicion things will begin to "rock and roll", as they say, for good or bad, right after election day.
I saw it on the news when I was getting my daughter ready for school and then kept her home. No way was she gonna leave my side!
I was of cellular mass held within two people. I had yet to become a zygote, and thus unaware of anything beyond my cellular world. Or anything for that matter since I wasn't yet sentient.
This might sound like I'm poking fun but that's not my intention. I was just answering, plus I thought it was … Read more
It was my first week of kindergarten and I came home to see my dad freaking out and crying at the T.V! After that I just remember the news playing the video over and over again and just seeing videos of Osama bin Laden.
I was working on Algebra classwork. My father's school had closed down when he came home and turned on the news.
I was at home, I went in to work, and we watched it on the t.v., in our staff workroom. It was hard to focus that day. I remember how somber everyone was. No laughter, or chatter. Just stillness and grief.
I was at work, in a patient's room when the first plane hit and we thought what a terrible accident.....then the second plane.....then the sense of this is no accident......trying to stay calm.....the collapsing....utter devastation. I can remember the gambit of emotions of that day, being a nurse, wanting to go, to help in any … Read more
I was taking the day off from work and was in the kitchen making breakfast. I walked into the living room and saw my wife in tears with her mouth agape. I saw the second plane hit and thought she was watching a movie and then realized what was happening.
I was at work building a sun room for a customer when I heard about the first airliner on the radio. Then the homeowner invited us in to watch it on TV and I seen the second airliner hit live as it happened. The homeowner called us back in when the South Tower collapsed and … Read more

I was at work that terrible day and heard about it on the radio. I closed my shop and sent everyone home with pay that day. Terrible thing. So many innocent lives lost of all races.
