To be clear, the significance of that day still burns hot in my mind, as does my trip in early December 2001 to ground zero. For me, and I am sure you, it is personal.
On the blog Facebook page, time was found to forward and comment on an a Reuters piece detailing how President Obama did not have time to grant a requested meeting with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu due to a lack of scheduling opportunities. Obama does have a tight schedule, campaigning hard in states the media proclaims he is safe in, with an appearance on David Letterman and a pow wow with rap star Pimp the Limp, whoever that may be.
On September 11 of all days, we thought the President should note that freedom will be defended in all ways legally permissible, from all enemies foreign, and domestic.
Meanwhile, it has been tough sledding for Netanyahu in dealing with Obama, who clearly has a strong disdain for both him personally and Israel itself. A recent trip did not go well by all accounts, and with Israel in great peril due to the pursuit of nuclear weapons by Iran, Obama's concern for Israel is limited, although he has expressed some strategic influence as you may suspect.

On the anniversary of the worst terrorist attacks ever perpetrated on America, no accident to be sure, in what the administration felt were protests due to an anti-Islamic movie someone posted on YouTube, coordinated attacks on our embassy in Cairo, Egypt and our consulate in Benghazi, Libya took the life our ambassador and three others. For those on the golf course, this is an act of war.
These attacks were preceded by an official statement from our government offering an apology for individuals who are not up to speed on the warm fuzzy feelings the administration has for Muslim extremists. Apologies and appeasement are not only going to fail to achieve anything, they will make things much worse.
The Muslim Brotherhood is now fully in charge in Egypt, and the Muslim Brotherhood is anti-Israel and no friend of the United States. While Obama found it intoxicating to assist in taking our a pair of dictators in these countries, no apparent thought to the vacuum left behind was engaged. It was not difficult to forecast the events that have transpired, and our leading from behind President has no answers to escalating violence in the region.
It is very hard to imagine anyone making Jimmy Carter look like Dwight Eisenhower, but Obama is giving it the college try, and we have a copy of these transcripts. These events have that 1979 feel to it, and come to think of it, so do the issues with petroleum.
Then again, since D'Souza is correct, these events of a weakening US and the rise of Islamic nations may likely be the objective of Obama. Certainly, the policies of weakness and appeasement and partnership with Islamic radicals are void of common sense, enhances their efforts and exponentially increases our risk, not to mention the place Israel find it self in.
For those of us against Islamic terrorists, we must get a change in leadership at first opportunity. This change is imperative in our effort to protect and defend our freedoms and preserve the United States as a superpower in the world.
As Sarah Palin said, "Since President Obama likes to “speak softly” to our enemies. If he doesn’t have a “big stick” to carry, maybe it’s time for him to grow one". Obama will not, so we the American people, will have to act.
Our first, and seemingly only, opportunity, is on November 6. Freedom is at stake.
