Why is everyone fighting the day after this great disaster?
So you don’t see my point(s). Oh well, just be glad I’m not running the country. 
Oh and JParkes: You just made me look REALLY smart. Heh, did you read my post AT ALL?

Just read this in my email and HAD to come back and post it here! I copied and pasted and didnt correct some of the typos but you will get the picture!
Thinking of you all, this seemed worth passing along:
FRWD: Sent to me by a friend. How true, how true!!
I believe it was written by a teenager from Florida.
Well, you hit the World Trade Center, but you missed America.
You hit the Pentagon,but you missed America.
You used helpless American bodies,to take out other American bodies, but like a poor marksman, you STILL
missed America.
Why? Because of something you guys will never understand. America isn’t abouta building or two, not about financial centers, not about military centers,America isn’t about a place, America isn’t even about a bunch of bodies.
America is about an IDEA. An idea thatyou can go someplace where you can earn as much as you can figure out howto, live for the most part, like you envisioned living, and pursueHappiness. (No guarantees that you’ll
reach it, but you can sure try!)
Go ahead and whine your terrorist whine, and chant your terrorist litany “If you cannot see my point, then feel my pain.” This concept is alien to Americans.
We live in a country where wedon’t have to see your point. But you’re free to have one.
We don’t have to listen to your speech. But you’re free to say one.
Don’t know where you got the strange idea that everyone has to agree with you.
There’s a spirit that tends to take over people who come to this country, looking for opportunity, looking for liberty, looking for freedom. Even if they misuse it. You guys seem to be incapable of understanding that we don’t live in America,America lives in US! American Spirit is what it’s called.
And killing a few thousand of us, or a few million of us, won’t change it.
Most of the time, it’s apretty happy-go-lucky kind of Spirit. Until we’re crossed in a cowardlymanner, then it becomes an entirely different kind of Spirit. Wait until you see what we do with thatSpirit, this time.
Sleeptight, if you can. We’re coming.

Lead, follow, or get out of the way…
Oh My God - I can’t even get onto CNN right now.
Are the buildings demolished? Were people in the building hurt? This is so scary!
