25. BUSHCO is "trying to destroy our way of life", along
with millions of Americans who are more than willing to follow along. I'll never get over how flabbergasted I was by the reaction of our government and most of the country to 9/11. When it happened, I was three hours away from boarding a plane to Norway. I watched what everyone else watched on TV, and got mad as hell! NO WAY would I let a handful of terrorists manipulate me! I tried desperately to get on another plane in the following days-fuck them! I was going on my trip!! When my plane was grounded on 9/11 I decided to take care of some banking business I had been putting off instead. When I came into the bank and signed in, one of the employees said "I can't believe you came in today...DON'T YOU KNOW WHAT'S GOING ON"??? I said "of course I do, and I'm not going to allow those thugs to change one damn thing about the way I conduct my life. If I do, they win. Why shouldn't I sign my loan papers today? The attacks are in NYC and DC...not Orlando Florida"!!

I talked to a very liberal friend last night (who only gets the news from the MSM) and she believes that EVERYONE else in America is with * 100%, and that she really did "stop being safe" on 9/11. I just wish I knew of SOME WAY to make people like her snap out of it!

rant off.
