ORIGINAL: bigskycountry As a new york resident during 9/11 that watched the towers fall, the taste of those moments is etched upon me. We here talked about all aspects of the attack daily for years. Beyond pontificating and suppositions we shared as a collective, what we remember is talking about what is best for us. New York did not vote republican. They will not keep us safe. They will not be the shining light in our corrupt city. They will continue to sell us out, as they always manage (ask anyone that needs concrete or steel or public transportation) to pull a halliburton reacharound when something needs to be built. It's like a libertarian that wants to build a stronger government. We, the prime targets, the big cities, the melting pots, the ones who see and are finacially affected by the greedy groups, know what is going on all too well. We see it every day when the subways run slow to garner one hour of overtime for the train conducter. We see it when there are 7 guys and 2 cement trucks to sink a no parking sign. we see it here in new york when there is a group of tsa officials at LGA ignoring their posts and talking about the yankee's game. We that live here know it was a farce and a set-up (c'mon, unions sabotage projects constantly here and mob contracts still get slipped in all over). We know what's going on, shove your pride and "patriotism" up your ass and quit being a blinded sheep. All bipartisonship aside: NEVER stop eagle-eyeing your government...no matter who is in charge. That was an exceptional post. - R
