it is mind boggling when it finally hits home isn’t it? I kept watching television today and kept saying I just can’t believe this. I pray this devestation is all that touches the world for a while - it was enough to last a lifetime.

I assume you are female and are in mid PMS. Therefore I will refrain from annoying you further.
Forgive me if I am in error. I can see no comprehensible reason for your continued offensiveness.
But she did save him from the scrutiny that the Pres and his family are under. Maybe we can get him to run in the next election (he’ll make it…there are enough of us who don’t care about skin color and prefer to judge a person by their deeds and character), and then get the media to also take a step back and make the office one that engenders more respect. (I freely admit that it is part of my problem with Bush–it’s easy to criticize when everyone else does. Maybe that makes me a lemming?? 
)
Isn’t the internet amazing…?

My trainer’s husband works in the pentagon. I havent been in touch with anyone at the barn and I do not know where he was located. Please pray for him and all the people there.
You don’t understand how your support helped me through the day until he got home. I don’t even know you and you were there among others for me and everyone involved!!! I am so glad for the ones who can go home but the pain of loosing someone is so great, I could only imagine.
thank you EVERYONE for your support. I hope everyone is well on COTH!!! We all have to stick together!!!

I’m not bashing Canada at all in my previous post. It is a wonderful friend to the north and a great country indeed.
All I’m saying is there are people on this board bashing this country and it’s leadership and if you hate it so much, then leave!!!
Thought I’d pass on this story, especially since it does have its “horse-related” content. It’s true, although told to me 3rd hand.
I rode in a Captain Mark Phillips clinic in Michigan this past weekend. After talking to the farm owner, neither he nor Capt. Phillips wanted to cancel the clinic because of terrorist attacks… but rather wanted to hold it… basically a symbol that we will go on and get stronger. Anyway, evidently on Tuesday morning, Mark was ON a flight from London to Boston when the WTC was hit. The story went on to say that the pilot called him to the cockpit. Knowing he had military experience, our own coach of the Olympic team was requested to stay in the cockpit and, with an axe that is kept on board, make sure NO ONE got through that door as they were diverted to Greenland. Pretty spooky.

THANK YOU SO MUCH!!! I am getting really worried but I know he is doing his job and helping people. He must be too busy to call. Thank you so much!!! Prayers are needed for everyone involved!!! This is a horrible thing!

I don’t think he’s going back just yet since it’s been reported that the plane that crashed in Pittsburgh was meant to crash into the capital. A prayer should go out to the crew (and it’s passengers) or whoever thwarted that attempt.

I find it disturbing that there are people out there that can’t seem to fathom that there are more countries in the world beside the US 
How is reminding you of the rest of the world mocking the US???
Besides, people will always discuss politics, regardless of a crisis situation. Its natural 
To many loved ones to worry about. I can’t believe the carnage, and I’m terrified what this will lead to.

Not quite certian but I think that the SS doesn’t do more than bodily protect in situations of National Emergency where the President’s movements are dictated by an unplanned occurance.
They do have several teams that scope out various locations in advance of Presidential visits and have contingency plans ready for emergency situations but I would not say that the Secret Service tells the President where to go.
No, not protect them, but not USE them. They served no purpose in standing behind him during a press conference that was bordering on a discussion of “war.” Children have no place being in a room with our President during that crisis. THAT was what I found inappropriate.
Also, I do, as jl so kindly pointed out, have a right to my opinion. Maybe years of Vietnam, Nixon, and even Clinton have made it difficult for me to get behind anyone in office. Politicians are corrupt, end of sentence. Otherwise we would NOT be in this situation. If we managed our own country better and didn’t get sucked into the problems of every other country, we MIGHT not have these problems now.
Get behind my president? Well, yes, last night when he finally said we will not tolerate terrorists, nor the people who harbor them, I was behind him. I just think he needs to listen to his staff, and think about how he is representing US, the people of America. He has a man behind him that should have been president, Colin Powell. Now there’s a man who has presence, a brain, and international savvy.
In a democracy we all have a right to freedom of speech, and until yesterday, we had the freedom to travel around this country by plane, train, bus and automobile.
If this gets your undies in a tight wad, then say what you want back. That IS one of our great rights. When politicians start behaving as if their jobs are on the line at every turn, just as it is for all other Americans, THEN I’ll get on the wagon right away when something happens, but when they’re guaranteed security no matter how much they mess up, I’ll feel free to criticize.
I just can’t help but be angry and vent after all of this. JMHO
it is a transcript of a editorial broadcast from Toronto by Gordon Sinclair, a Canadian television commentator. He wrote it in 1973.

Car bomb outside the State building… i would just like to say WHAT THE HELL WERE THESE PEOPLE THINKING??? And although im not a religous person, my thoughts and prayers are with all those people.

This is just insanity that civilians should be used to kill civilians, particularly in NYC, which is one of the greatest melting pots of all types of people, anywhere. Just madness. My heart goes out to anyone around or near these sites.
So far I don’t think anyone has been able to truly claim responsibility. Amazing that this kind of destruction is still facelss.
Thank you, Duffy! I agree!
Hobson,
Amen.
