It wasn't about me. 6 00:00:15,760 --> 00:00:19,320 Speaker 1: But there's one thing that strikes me, haven't It just 7 00:00:19,440 --> 00:00:21,680 Speaker 1: hit me like a bolt of lightning this morning as 8 00:00:21,680 --> 00:00:27,960 Speaker 1: I'm watching this stuff. There is one day a year 9 00:00:29,240 --> 00:00:32,159 Speaker 1: where the Democratic Party in the American Left admit that 10 00:00:32,320 --> 00:00:36,639 Speaker 1: nine eleven happened. And it's nine eleven. It's today. Now 11 00:00:36,640 --> 00:00:39,040 Speaker 1: what happens in the other three hundred sixty four days 12 00:00:39,080 --> 00:00:43,000 Speaker 1: of the year, they just pretend it never happened. But today, oh, yes, 13 00:00:43,080 --> 00:00:45,920 Speaker 1: it happened. We're out there doing the you know, the 14 00:00:46,159 --> 00:00:50,479 Speaker 1: the mass mush walk.

Dick Cheney 22 00:01:14,920 --> 00:01:19,560 Speaker 1: yesterday masterful on Meet the Press. Russert was as soon 23 00:01:19,640 --> 00:01:22,559 Speaker 1: the role of of of a prosecutor yesterday, and Cheney 24 00:01:22,560 --> 00:01:26,640 Speaker 1: held up well. Uh. And I watched The Path to 25 00:01:26,720 --> 00:01:28,600 Speaker 1: Night eleven last night on a plane ride back home 26 00:01:28,640 --> 00:01:31,520 Speaker 1: from Los Angeles, and I intended because you know, I 27 00:01:31,560 --> 00:01:34,360 Speaker 1: wanted to watch the Manning Bowl, which was on at 28 00:01:34,360 --> 00:01:36,280 Speaker 1: the same time, So I intended just to watch the 29 00:01:36,319 --> 00:01:38,959 Speaker 1: parts of the movie. I knew where there might be edits, 30 00:01:40,319 --> 00:01:43,679 Speaker 1: and I couldn't tear myself away from it even a 31 00:01:44,000 --> 00:01:48,560 Speaker 1: second time. Ladies and gentlemen, they will talk about it 32 00:01:48,560 --> 00:01:50,960 Speaker 1: in greater detail here in in just a moment. But 33 00:01:51,640 --> 00:01:55,840 Speaker 1: the edits were not that severe. They really weren't. Uh. 34 00:01:56,040 --> 00:01:58,240 Speaker 1: They could have done a lot more damage butchering this 35 00:01:58,320 --> 00:02:01,880 Speaker 1: thing than than they did. But I just I want 36 00:02:01,920 --> 00:02:05,520 Speaker 1: to start off here with a little continuation or expansion, 37 00:02:05,560 --> 00:02:08,600 Speaker 1: if you will, on the on the lightning Bolt realization 38 00:02:08,680 --> 00:02:12,800 Speaker 1: that I had earlier today that on one day a year, 39 00:02:13,360 --> 00:02:16,040 Speaker 1: the Democratic Party in the American left will actually admit 40 00:02:16,200 --> 00:02:21,799 Speaker 1: nine eleven happened. You and the Democratic Party and you 41 00:02:22,240 --> 00:02:27,120 Speaker 1: on the left will solemnly commemorate any anniversary of nine eleven, 42 00:02:27,160 --> 00:02:30,639 Speaker 1: today being the fifth. But why don't you do this? 43 00:02:31,160 --> 00:02:34,160 Speaker 1: You know what's stunning to me is that you won't 44 00:02:34,160 --> 00:02:38,480 Speaker 1: support the war effort. Why not we're out here admitting 45 00:02:38,520 --> 00:02:40,320 Speaker 1: that what happened, I mean, there were there were There 46 00:02:40,360 --> 00:02:45,760 Speaker 1: were three thousand people who died and had no idea why. 47 00:02:45,800 --> 00:02:49,480 Speaker 1: They had no clue why what happened happened. Their lives 48 00:02:49,520 --> 00:02:55,040 Speaker 1: were stolen for reasons they never knew. In the immediate aftermath, 49 00:02:55,440 --> 00:02:58,320 Speaker 1: A few people ever really saw the full horror reported 50 00:02:58,320 --> 00:03:01,000 Speaker 1: by the cameras. The raw footage was too graphic for 51 00:03:01,120 --> 00:03:05,639 Speaker 1: us to view. Likewise, few ever heard the captured screams 52 00:03:05,680 --> 00:03:08,639 Speaker 1: of panic or prayers from the dyeing. Their lives were 53 00:03:08,680 --> 00:03:13,240 Speaker 1: stolen for reasons they never knew. You know, we're civilized people, 54 00:03:13,320 --> 00:03:15,640 Speaker 1: We have civilized rules of warfare. And by the way, 55 00:03:15,680 --> 00:03:17,800 Speaker 1: have you seen what happened to Abu Grab? The Iraqis 56 00:03:17,800 --> 00:03:19,920 Speaker 1: have turned it over, the Americans have turned it over 57 00:03:20,000 --> 00:03:23,679 Speaker 1: the Iraqis and apparently a screams and shouts coming out 58 00:03:23,680 --> 00:03:27,680 Speaker 1: of the place. Now bring back the Americans abo grab 59 00:03:28,480 --> 00:03:32,240 Speaker 1: Aboo Grabs. Under new management, we practice civilized rule of 60 00:03:32,240 --> 00:03:36,600 Speaker 1: warfare uh, and and our own political considerations keep us 61 00:03:37,600 --> 00:03:41,280 Speaker 1: from showing images of carnage inflicted upon civilian populations in 62 00:03:41,320 --> 00:03:44,920 Speaker 1: Afghanistan and Iraq all over the world Bali Spain. Can 63 00:03:45,000 --> 00:03:48,640 Speaker 1: you most people will never see recordings of the beheadings 64 00:03:48,720 --> 00:03:54,120 Speaker 1: that terrorists employ, because that's too graphic for our sensibilities. Uh. 65 00:03:54,160 --> 00:03:57,440 Speaker 1: Those those who insist at these barbaric acts they commit 66 00:03:57,480 --> 00:04:00,160 Speaker 1: are on a religious mission, are confronted in bad all 67 00:04:00,280 --> 00:04:05,280 Speaker 1: zones far from New York and the Pentagon and Pennsylvania. 68 00:04:05,520 --> 00:04:08,720 Speaker 1: Our military and the civilian victims of terrorism are the 69 00:04:08,840 --> 00:04:13,960 Speaker 1: only people who see this daily horror up close. So 70 00:04:14,040 --> 00:04:16,400 Speaker 1: here regard five years later, some Americans who have never 71 00:04:16,440 --> 00:04:18,839 Speaker 1: been deprived of personal liberty at all, view of the 72 00:04:18,839 --> 00:04:23,040 Speaker 1: war as a political game. Partisan journalists who abuse First 73 00:04:23,040 --> 00:04:28,960 Speaker 1: Amendment privileges routinely leak national defense secrets. An entire political 74 00:04:29,080 --> 00:04:32,640 Speaker 1: party solely intent on regaining its power is lost all 75 00:04:32,880 --> 00:04:37,479 Speaker 1: clarity and has descended into the early stages of utter madness. 76 00:04:38,320 --> 00:04:41,479 Speaker 1: Those are recognized that the Islamo fascist threat to Western 77 00:04:41,520 --> 00:04:46,240 Speaker 1: civilization is real are themselves under attack from a spoiled, 78 00:04:46,520 --> 00:04:51,440 Speaker 1: naive leftist ideology and a templative moral relativism, incapable of 79 00:04:51,480 --> 00:04:56,760 Speaker 1: distinguishing good from evil. Even today the Boston Globe, I 80 00:04:56,920 --> 00:05:00,360 Speaker 1: kid you not, I'm gonna paraphrase it how I don't 81 00:05:00,360 --> 00:05:02,479 Speaker 1: know why. I'm surprised, because I have been telling you 82 00:05:02,560 --> 00:05:04,240 Speaker 1: this is what the Left things all along. The Boston 83 00:05:04,240 --> 00:05:08,440 Speaker 1: Globe has editorial out today Boston Globe, owned by Little 84 00:05:08,480 --> 00:05:12,560 Speaker 1: pinch In the New York Times Company, which honestly says 85 00:05:13,720 --> 00:05:16,440 Speaker 1: that President Bush has done more harm to America than 86 00:05:16,480 --> 00:05:21,560 Speaker 1: the nine eleven terrorist attacks themselves. They actually now they've 87 00:05:21,600 --> 00:05:24,880 Speaker 1: said it. They've always thought it, and I've known they 88 00:05:24,920 --> 00:05:28,800 Speaker 1: always believed it. Bush is the terrorist. They think the 89 00:05:28,800 --> 00:05:31,200 Speaker 1: war on terror began on nine eleven, as the movie 90 00:05:31,279 --> 00:05:34,000 Speaker 1: last Night clearly showed it started many many years before that. 91 00:05:35,200 --> 00:05:38,200 Speaker 1: They think the war on terror began on nine eleven, 92 00:05:39,080 --> 00:05:44,160 Speaker 1: and they don't even take it and consider it seriously 93 00:05:45,400 --> 00:05:51,040 Speaker 1: using that starting point five years ago. Evil attactus. By 94 00:05:51,040 --> 00:05:53,000 Speaker 1: the way, this movie last Night shows clearly the war 95 00:05:53,080 --> 00:05:57,080 Speaker 1: on terror did not start on nine eleven, two thousand one. 96 00:05:57,080 --> 00:06:00,360 Speaker 1: And it also illustrates that Bush did not create terrorists. 97 00:06:00,880 --> 00:06:02,479 Speaker 1: That they were. They were out there and they hated 98 00:06:02,520 --> 00:06:06,400 Speaker 1: us long before Bush even wanted to run for president. 99 00:06:07,120 --> 00:06:10,919 Speaker 1: So evil attacked, still attacking us, and we cannot afford 100 00:06:10,920 --> 00:06:12,599 Speaker 1: to forget it. And here we are on the fifth 101 00:06:12,680 --> 00:06:17,640 Speaker 1: year anniversary, as we solemnly commemorate the fifth anniversary of 102 00:06:17,720 --> 00:06:20,360 Speaker 1: nine eleven. And the people who once a year will 103 00:06:20,400 --> 00:06:24,560 Speaker 1: admit that, yep, yet it happened, won't support the war effort, 104 00:06:25,920 --> 00:06:32,360 Speaker 1: won't support retaliating for action that actually caused all this solemnity. Today, 105 00:06:33,600 --> 00:06:35,640 Speaker 1: you'll go to the process of getting to the airport 106 00:06:35,720 --> 00:06:38,920 Speaker 1: two hours earlier, but you won't support the war effort. 107 00:06:39,320 --> 00:06:43,080 Speaker 1: You'll surrender all of your liquids except your saliva, but 108 00:06:43,120 --> 00:06:45,960 Speaker 1: you won't support the war effort. I mean, it's one 109 00:06:46,000 --> 00:06:48,000 Speaker 1: thing to be flexible and able to adjust to a 110 00:06:48,040 --> 00:06:52,560 Speaker 1: temporary situation, but you really expect you, your children and 111 00:06:52,600 --> 00:06:56,200 Speaker 1: their children to continue on this legacy, remembering it one 112 00:06:56,760 --> 00:07:00,880 Speaker 1: day a year. You've been complaining, the American's been complaining 113 00:07:00,920 --> 00:07:04,440 Speaker 1: all along that everybody should sacrifice, and what they really 114 00:07:04,480 --> 00:07:07,000 Speaker 1: mean by that is that the rich should be hit 115 00:07:07,040 --> 00:07:12,040 Speaker 1: with higher taxes. You want to sacrifice, support the war 116 00:07:12,080 --> 00:07:16,880 Speaker 1: effort instead of undermining it. Because there's a hard, cold 117 00:07:17,000 --> 00:07:19,760 Speaker 1: reality out there, ladies and gentlemen that we must face. 118 00:07:20,920 --> 00:07:25,920 Speaker 1: America is at war with Islamo fascism, and American liberals 119 00:07:25,960 --> 00:07:30,480 Speaker 1: are at war with America. And there is no doubt, 120 00:07:30,600 --> 00:07:31,840 Speaker 1: make no mistake about it.
