Never Forget: September 11, 2001


Everyone knows where they were that terrible day when they heard or saw what happened to the World Trade Center, the Pentagon, and in a field near Shanksville, Pennsylvania. The images are ones we can never forget; they are burned in our minds forever. Innocent lives were lost and families were shattered. We grieved as a nation and we came together for one of the few times in recent memory.

Today should be a reminder to our country that the enemy is the terrorists and not our fellow Americans, both Democrat and Republican. We disagree on many issues, but we should all agree on this point. We must have a strong military to combat those who want to do our nation harm and take our freedoms. We cannot have weakness and indecisiveness in our chief executive and our government leaders. We must have leaders with strong principles and unwavering morals who look to a higher authority rather than themselves for guidance. This is what the next presidential election is all about.

Never forget what they did to our nation.

Never forget what they did to our security and peace of mind.

Never forget what they did to our people.

Never forget what we need to do to keep what they did from ever happening again.
