they're showing coverage from 6 years ago today (6 years, holy shit) on msnbc. it's unbelievable. i remember that day so vividly. watching this old news footage and just reliving that day has made me tear up. to this day it is still absolutely surreal.
they also showed footage of bush this morning talking about foiling terrorism and taking out the people who planned this (as he always fucking does). he always says that terrorism will not be tolerated and we must go to get rid of all the terrorists blah blah blah well why the fuck is our concentration all in iraq??? now that we've done so much shit there we can't leave for awhile because we need to clean up the mess we created there, and in doing this we've taken our attention away from the terrorists. bush, get your fucking act together and get us back where we need to be: tracking down terrorists where they are located (afghanistan, pakistan, etc.) not fucking iraq. fucking pisses me off, all these empty promises (that are usual of most politicians) but in this case it means unnecessary loss of life when we should be elsewhere.
and last but certainly not least, may all those who passed 6 years ago today rest in eternal peace.
