5 Horrible Years Later

So I was crying tonight watching all the video's right after the the 9-11 attacks and decided to post some of my favorites. When Dan Rather and Letterman say that President Bush is our President and I will line up behind whatever he asks me to do, it was a different climate than what he has turned it into today.
The main reason I was in tears was not really because of the 9-11 tragedy, but the complete squandering of the goodwill we gave our President and the complete ineptness in the reasoning and execution of the Iraq war. I don't want to sound like a bumper sticker but when Clinton lied nobody died.
We are in a long war, but it is not against a verb(terror). We must learn to live in a country that will be attacked indiscriminately. It will not be easy, but attacking nation states where .1% of the population supports/are the terrorists will only exacerbate the situation. It is time for leadership with a vision that unites the world. Our global situation as a country is radically different than when these horrible attacks transpired and there are only a few people to blame(some of which have already been given medals of freedom).
