I’m sure Japan would have loved to see Americans plating trees all over the US of A, rather than Americans manning the ships, the planes, the companies, divisions, and brigades that sent them into a horrific defeat…

red state bigot seems to think bush was warned about 9/11. I smell a truther.

When I was a kid people said FDR knew an attack on Pearl Harbor was coming too, and he let it happen to get us into the war to get the economy going. Lies never really go away, they just change participants.

The Federal government will never coerce me into serving them. My husband and I already pay for their thievery and the “privilege” of being in a government health care program (Tricare). I already put up with all the nonsense I ever will with deployments and the fickle needs and wishes of the military and their constant social engineering. The Federal government has made so many promises to military spouses and retirees that they’ll never be able to keep up with the lies they’ve told us.

You can rewind history but you can never totally obliterate it. There are millions of us who haven’t forgotten and never will.

Not as sick as those who actually do the branding of 9/11. You know, the Bush administration.

What is this branding you speak of?

Saying that “we don’t want 911 to happen again” is some sort of 911 branding?

That’s either bad logic, or you don’t know what branding is.

If it’s possible to desecrate the memories of those who perished on September 11 any more than we already did by electing the Hamas-endorsed Barack Hussein Obama only a few years later, this is how Dear Leader will accomplish it:……

I think the Spectator writer Matthew Vadum made up the whole thing. Maybe there was a conference call, maybe not. Does Obama know Lennox Yearwood? I never heard of him.

Note the weasel words: “think” and “maybe” and the lgm classic “I never heard of him”.

Ever hear of a Google search? Here is some help for the helpless: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lennox_Yearwood

Why are you trying so hard to prove the “remove all doubt” part of “Better to keep your mouth closed and be thought a fool than to open it and remove all doubt?” quote of Mark Twain (Samuel Clemens, because you might never have heard of him either)?

The only thing in the article that is likely to be true is the quote, which most Americans would agree with:

But 9/11 has become a brand name. A Republican campaign slogan. Propaganda of the lowest form. 9/11 has become 9/11 with a trademark logo. “9/11 TM” has sustained a president who long ago should have been dismissed, or impeached. It has kept him and his gang of financial and constitutional crooks in office without — literally — any visible means of support. “9/11 TM” has made possible the greatest sleight-of-hand in our nation’s history.

Clearly MM’s emotional level over this issue is her worry that the 9/11 branding could change.

Then, by your definition, the Great Depression would be the brand name of the Democrats? And the Viet Nam war, and the “Great” Society, “only we can help minorities (but never do)”, and the almost defunct Social Security, right?
