Just taking a moment....


Posted: Sep 11, 2012

Remembering that day when our world changed.... a day when political party, race and creed didn't matter, a national tragedy in which all Americans came together and mourned as one. 

Remembering the people who lost their lives and their relatives and loved ones whose world will never be the same. 

Taking a moment in silence.... Never forgetting.

Amen! - Cassie

I know that we all remember where we were when we got the news. It didn't even seem like what we were hearing could possibly be true. All I could think of was "all those souls" in the Towers at the moment I first heard what was happening; but then, thinking about all of the aftermath and the loved ones left behind came later. Everyone in this country was affected in some way, really.

It will be generations before this day is just "another day in history" and hopefully will never really be forgotten.

and recovery workers at the World Trade Center site who died after 9/11. The good news is that their many cancers will now be covered. I will NEVER forget that day.

I cannot read about Howard Lutnick without tearing up. He will be on Piers Morgan tonight.

Nobody will ever forget that day. I think every one of us knows exactly where we were at that time and the reaction of horror as we watched on TV feeling helpless. I wish we would have the same tribute to the Oklahoma City, Marine Barracks and other horrible tragedies.

The good news is many of the men and women first responders have always gotten the best health care. With a little luck and a whole lot of hope they always will in the future.

It's horrible to listen to the personal experiences of people who were there. Something I will never forget in my life.

A Real ROFL MomentMar 08, 2011
So, I'm sitting here, with my headphones on working away.  The dictator is taking his sweet time saying absolutely nothing.  I'm at marker # 879 on the counter and have about 2 paragraphs.  I get distracted by the radio, an old song I haven't heard in a very long time so I start humming along.  It's nice to hear an old song. Next thing I know I hear ghostly voices, a whole crowd it seems!!!  I scream, LOUD, jump up out of my chair!  Dog bolts o ...

Obama's Moment On ImmigrationNov 07, 2014
"President Obama said on Wednesday that he would act on his own by the end of the year to “improve” the immigration system, presumably by giving many — perhaps millions — of the country’s unauthorized immigrants temporary protection from deportation and permission to work. He has said this before, only to back off in deference to election-year politics." It will be interesting to see how "immigration reform" will play out.  The majority of Americans do not des ...

Prediction: This Election Will Be A Wakeup Moment SimilarNov 08, 2012
in 1925. That trial, pitting fundamentalist/conservative beliefs against science and secularism, was a sensational culmination of previously ascendent radical right wing beliefs that exposed them to the world at large.  There are so many similarities between these times and then, especially galloping change sparking reactionary religious fervor and stoking bigotry and severe anti-immigrant passion. In both eras, with the radical positions, meanness, bigotry, and antiintellectualism hiding ...

'He Became President Of The United States In That Moment, Period'Mar 01, 2017
Shortly after President Donald Trump addressed a Joint Session of Congress for the first time since taking the oath of office, CNN's Van Jones called one particularly moving moment from the speech the real estate mogul's most presidential to date. Less than an hour after Trump honored the widow of a slain NAVY Seal, the Democratic commentator suggested that the commander in chief had officially begun to look the part. "He became President of the United States in that moment, pe ...

Mitts Behind Closed Doors Hot Mic Moment: Slash DOEducation, Eliminate HUDApr 16, 2012
As if standing idly by while the housing market crashes isn't enough, Romney tells big-buck donors if he had his way, he would eliminate HUD (Romney Sr was Secretary of HUD) all together, another apparent reversal of his previous multi-family/anti-sprawl policies while serving as governor of Massachusetts.  Out of sight, out of mind. Maybe he could fund bare-bones cuts to the Department of Education by moving all recipients of students loans to labor camps after graduation.& ...

I've heard so many horror stories about the ACA.  Just trying to get an idea of what is ac ...
