The most obvious way to commemorate 9/11/01 this weekend
Edited on Sat Sep-10-11 04:43 PM by derby378
Go to your DVD collection, pull out Fahrenheit 9/11, pop it in your DVD/Blu-Ray player, and get a fresh reminder of why we have fought so hard against the Bush administration and its fallout during the Obama administration.

Remember. Get mad. And fight back.

1. Dayum.

That's exactly what my family and I did last night. Stomach churning. Fist burning. Speechless. Much you can't watch. So much we still don't know. It was a national nightmare, and it's not over yet ... the remnants, financial, psychological,and global, will be with us for a long time to come, I'm afraid.

You are so right ... fight back; any way you can.

7. Lila's story is just as poignant now as it was then
God bless her and her entire family.

11. Her pain was palpable and visceral.
Moore does an amazing job with that movie. He is a genius and a patriot bar none.

3. I saw it again a few weeks ago.
The only thing in any media anywhere that shows how stopping the Florida recount lead to Dumbya's sElection lead to ignoring the memo lead to 9/11.

5. Good idea
I might just do that. Although it will piss me off all over again.

6. I haven't seen that in a few years.
As much as I hate the idea, I think we'll be pulling that one out of the vault and watching it tomorrow.

I want this latest national holiday to just go the fuck away!

10. I took a trip down the memory hole myself
Looking at old pictures and thinking about all the actions of DUers in the past few years.

Camp Casey and everyone who attended in person and in spirit
Andy's Surgery and everyone who donated so generously
Fighting for verified paper ballots
The DC Protests
The Move-On Protests
The DU Activist Group
Boycotting rightwing radio advertisers

The artists and video makers who shared their vision with us.

We stormed the barricades, Derby! Everytime they threw one up in front of us, we pushed it down. Never forget.
