Just wanted to acknowledge it has really been seven years since the destruction of the Twin Towers and the damage to the Pentagon (and the loss of the brave people in Pennsylvania).  I am shocked how few flags are flying.  How soon we forget.  We still haven’t caught Osama Bin Laden, we are still in Afghanistan, still in Iraq (which has nothing to do with it), and still bowing to unconstitutional laws.

I just wish our government would stop hunting bogey men and trying to scare us and fix our schools and roads instead.  It’ simple. Secure our borders properly, listen to people WHEN THEY CALL THE FBI TO TELL THEM THERE ARE TERRORISTS IN THEIR FLIGHT SCHOOLS and quit pissing off the rest of the world with stupid policies and illegal invasions.  You really want to make life better, get off the fossil fuel teat and become a world leader, for once.  Spending a trillion dollars to blow up people who did nothing to us half a world away does not make our lives better.   I am sure that trillion could of been used to fix our ‘health’ care system.

Meanwhile, life still goes on.  In the last 7 years, I have gotten married, had a child, changed jobs, bought a new car, etc.  Personally I am pretty happy.  I am happy, but I am worried about the future of our country and how quickly we forget the mistakes made.
