Bravo to both Presidents, all of the speakers, MSNBC for their excellent coverage, and especially the families of the Flight 93 Heroes.

Two very good speeches but I must say Mr. Clinton’s was just terrific. Very powerful.

Both men put 9/11 in the larger context that it entailed. Yes it was about America and Americans but it was about something more.

I can’t understand why some folks here can’t see that.

Presidents Bush And Clinton Address Crowd At Flight 93 Memorial Dedication

…while OBOZO is dedicating his efforts to — yep, you guessed it — PLAYING ANOTHER ROUND OF GOLF.

Hate to rain on anyone’s Parade but George W. Bush and his VP Cheney are War criminals and don’t deserve any position of Honor at this very difficult time in our Country’s history.  They just didn’t do enough even after they were briefed that Ben Laden had ideas to crash airplanes into BUILDINGS.  Bush’s Policy that first years was as simple as ABC, ANYTHING BUT CLINTON so the analyst by the Clinton CIA went unheeded!!!!

I agree with your comment, except for the part about MSNBC. The vids are from FOX.

Christ almighty, here we go again.  The greatest afflication of the first part of the 21st century returns to rear its ugly head, BDS.  You liberal loons really need to get over yourselves and for about the 150th time since fatboy Moore first broached the subject, the idea of flying airplanes into buildings before September 11, 2001 was nothing revolutionary or hell, even original!  Not going to start with who was to blame for this; it’ll do nothing more than start just another pissing contest between ideologies.

Now we wouldn’t want that now, would we?

I thought he was commemorating 911 by packing lunches for DC schools:

What DC school hurt by 9/11?  Why don’t you pack lunches for Pentagon employees?

What DC school hurt by 9/11?  Why don’t you pack lunches for Pentagon employees?

Leave it to Clinton to steal all the thunder from 9/11.

the world would be a better place without you. im crossing my fingers that you leave soon…

Meanwhile……… President Obama was home listening to his favorite Reverend Wright sermons.

 You don’t like clicking links? Here’s another attempt to inform you (somehow I get the idea that’s a waste of time).

@markknollerMark Knoller Pres Obama and family, including daughters, spent about an hour at DC Central Kitchen to mark 9/11 anniv with service project.

It was a good speech, well delivered and he (and Bush too) put 9/11 in a larger perspective. Which is what, I think, memorial addresses about large events should be about. That is, the particular and the universal, the specific and the common, the small and larger contexts.

Not everything has to be about politics. Don’t cha think?

I was born in India, and became a citizen of US. 41 Indian nationals perished at twin towers, representing the second largest group of foreigen nationals. Over 300 persons of Indian origin perished (Indian nationals, and Americans of Indian origin like me). Combined speeches of Bush and Clinton make me proud of being an American. For once, liberals and the conservatives can unite and be just Americans. 

It was one of the classiest ceremonies I’ve ever seen…stuck to it’s agenda and outside of Bush, Clinton and Biden it was not cluttered up with politicians.
You should acknowledge Biden’s speech – it was a wonderful presentation with political haranguing or malice.

I meant to say NO political haranguing or malice.
Also Bush and Clinton were also sooo very good.
This was what a ceremony like this should be.

Yes Biden stepped up to the plate.  Too bad his boss President Obama does not have the ability or desire to be a statesman.

Yes Biden stepped up to the plate.  Too bad his boss President Obama does not have the ability or desire to be a statesman.

um yeah, lets put the facts in that statement, otherwise someone might think you were just biased and not objective which might mean your opinion couldn’t be trusted

considering that there may or may not be a credible threat going on I would rather the presidents time be focused on avoiding another disaster and according to the official white house calendar he is pariticpating in a service project today, so next time actually report whats true then venture an opinion

Clifford Elisary is a well known jailbird in California ,who gets out just long enough to sell drugs to kids and get thrown back in the slammer .  He was bitten by a rabid dog while buglarizing a church a couple years ago , had some treatment , but the rabies virus infected him so badly that he makes no sense , as all can see . He’ll be back in prison soon . Hope he doesn’t get shanked out in the yard .

Oh, yeah, I’d forgotten that Obama wants to make September 11th a day of “service projects” rather than a day of remembrance. 

I HOPE that our next President will CHANGE that idiotic idea.

Hear, hear.

Thank you Mr. Gupta.

And thanks for becoming an American.

 So did you get to meet the president and his family?

No, but damn he packs a mean lunch!

I never said it was about politics.  I was sort of giving BC a compliment.  I actually consider him to be the last good president this country ever had.

I don’t think service serves any purpose for 9/11.  It’s really all about remembering why America is going down the gutter.

 I don’t think anyone doesn’t see that BC gives good speeches.  Unlike Obama, he could also give good speeches without the teleprompter, and he was much slicker with his vocabulary than Bush.  I would consider him to be the smartest president of my lifetime.

True, I don’t think Obama could give a better speech than Clinton.  His teleprompter is going to have to up its game for that to happen.

Okay, sorry. I misread your point.

I agree re his presidency: I think “history” will look very kindly on his eight years.

I wonder if the little known fact that Clinton has a keen photographic memory has anything to do with the other overly publicized fact of him orating at great lengths without the need for teleprompters or notes. 
 
Jus sayin…..

Using the Left’s “Blame Bush” logic, wouldn’t Clinton be responsible for the 9/11 attacks?

On a Saturday? 

“They make their public speeches where
Our most renowned patriots stand,
One among the birds of the air,
A stumpier on either hand;
And all the popular statesmen say
That purity built up the State
And after kept it from decay;
Admonish us to cling to that
And let all base ambition be
For intellect would make us proud
And pride bring in impurity.
The three old rascals laugh aloud!”–William Butler Yeats

A nation wonders, was it Begala or Carville’s turn to wear the blue dress inside the lectern while Slick was speaking ?

Photographic memory is overrated?  I think not.

Photographic memory is overrated?  I think not.

still stuck in 1998, eh? put away your Limp Biskit CDs and let it go.

at least he can read a teleprompter, unlike your hero George W. Boosh.

while Rick Perry was plotting to secede from the nation and relive the civil war.

I forgot how nice it was to listen to a real leader – speak from the heart – look at audience without his head snapping back a forth like he’s watching a tennis match reading a speech that someone else wrote on a teleprompter. Bush and Clinton outclassed Obama by miles today. Yes, even bush was very moving today.
Whoever advised Obama to skip this ceremony was way off. 

Boosh or Batman.  I can’t decide.

You forget – it was Clinton who had a chance to kill Bin Laden and did not.

Bush had a chance to kill bin Laden and did not, and we don’t even really know if Obama did in fact kill bin Laden.  Fact is that we really don’t even know who bin Laden even is.

That’s completely unnecessary.

Obama will be at all three sites tomorrow.

Because 9/11 isn’t supposed to be about 9/11 anymore. It’s now supposed to be a Day of Service. The murder of 3000 Americans is too icky to contemplate so let’s pack lunches for school kids, maybe do a little community organizing and move on.

Yes, Bidens speech was the best.

No he wouldn’t be.  9/11/01 happened during the Bush administration.  

I think 9/11 could be about whatever you want it to be about as long as you’re respectful to the people who died that day.  

Carter, Reagan, Bush Sr., Clinton, and Bush Jr. could all take credit for 9/11 to some extent.  If we go by 9/11 standards, Obama is the first president we’ve had in 32 years that can’t somehow be traced to 9/11 in 6 degrees or less.

 It’s always Begala’s turn to wear the blue dress. 

It’s part of the Clinton legacy.  Sure he was a filthy animal but he was also a boss.

 1998 probably had better music than 2011. 

Thanks White House for clearing that up. 

Yes, Biden’s speech was very good and very gracious. Except when he mentioned the Cross. Athiests are sure to be offended.

You know, saying hateful lies like that – and particularly when you know it is untrue, is what is driving a wedge between our citzens.  You knew it was a lie before you posted it.,  And if you didn’t, that means you should be learning things instead of posting things.
But I know you knew it was a lie. Shameful.

Another damn Republican lie.  You know it is a lie, you have been told it is a lie and you still post it. You do it to be hateful.  And it is that type of hate that is driving a wedge between our people that will never be fixed.
And I bet you even call yourself a christian.,  Well, get this – liars go to hell.

No, I’m sure again that your post just like the other hateful republicans is to do nothing but continue to drive that wedge between democrats and republicans.  You wouldn’t have believed it was bin Laden if they had brought the body up for you to see – only because it was Obama and his Seal Team 6 that got him and that irritates the hell out of you.

I support Huntsman so what is your point?

It isn’t untrue.  It is obvious as all get out that Obama has disdain for this country.   Why wasn’t Obama there?    Because he is a Jackass.   He is deliberately ruining our country.

clinton admitted it on videotape.  It is not a lie.

I don’t know a president since before Ronald Reagan who has NOT used a teleprompter.  In fact, I don’t know a general election candidate who hasn’t.  The question is:  At a town hall meeting, which candidate can take questions and completely expand upon the answer without any notes?  That wasn’t George W Bush – it was Clinton and Obama.  It wasn’t Sarah Palin, but it was John McCain.

Where is it “written” that liars go to hell? lol

 Bush’s speech sort of put me to sleep.  Clinton’s speech brought a few tears to my eyes.  Especially when he started talking about how much it meant to Hillary.  I’m sure the story was completely made up but touching still.

Obama AND his Seal Team?  Seriously girlfriend you have a major problem.

 I thought that it wasn’t just the teleprompter but the emotions.  You could tell Clinton felt everyone’s pain.

…and in grade 6 classrooms.  I don’t know, whatcha think there girlfriend?

p.s. Obama is the one who has 2 answers memorized (with mistakes mind you) and drags out the answers forever so people can’t ask questions. He’s been called on it. Are you referring to that same Obama? Bush was the one who would lean on the podium and just answer – rather refreshing.

Very classless! 

I don’t see a single format where Bill Clinton wouldn’t destroy Bush, Obama, McCain, or Palin in a debate.  He just might have been the most gifted public speaker of my lifetime.

RACIST PRICK!!!!

Bill Clinton often would let his opponents think that they’re in control all while being completely manipulated by BC the whole entire time.  He was probably the most cleaver person I have ever seen in the White House.

bUSH IS A wAR CRIMINAL GET OVER IT, THAT WHY THIS fUCK CAnnot leave this country…

I think 9/11 is about what happened on 9/11. If you want to think it’s about unicorn farts while tipping your cap to the dead of that day, that’s on you.

What was his excuse today?    His wife was too busy watching a tennis match to attend the ceromony at shanksville.    Those two should not have asked to occupy the white house if they were not up for the job.

Rush Limbaugh is a better speaker and Mark Levin would destroy Bill Clinton in a debate.

Jon Huntsman is actually better at speaking when he has no notes.

Not if you’re the f’g President of the United States on the 10th Anniversary of 911.

Obama is going to NY.

 I’m not asking him to go find the body.  I’m just asking to see the pictures.  It would offer a sense of closure. 

Brian, you really think that Rush Limbaugh and Mark Levin could beat Bill Clinton in a presidential debate?  There’s a difference between being on radio and actually putting your name, career, party, and country on the line.

 Brian, his wife represented the people of New York as a senator and may have even ordered the killing of Osama bin Laden.  Please have some respect for someone who has served New York and the heroes of the 9/11 tragedy as well as anyone could have expected her to. 

 Hillary loves New York.  She even has a Yankee cap to prove it.  So sick of Clinton haters.  You guys got tired as soon as Bush got elected.

 Fact: Clinton haters are the biggest reason Barack Obama is the president right now. 

I was talking about Michelle Obama not Hillary Clinton.

 Oh my bad, I misunderstood.  My sincere apologies.

Baloney.

Because he is going to be there tomorrow. Joe wanted to be there today.  Don’t worry – George W and the Republicans ruined our country.  Every fricking time we get the economy straightened out, one of the god damn republicans takes it over and creates a Savings and Loan scandal, a Bank bailout or something – like the great depression and then it takes democrats awhile to clean up the damn mess.

You can’t borrow and spend to prosperity. 

Huntsman is good, but Republicans will never pick him for the general election because he is too moderate and the religious right are scared of a Mormon.  No, they are going to pick Rick Perry and the independents will go back to obama.

Absolutely.  I saw him a couple times when he was campaigning.  Not a single note – and he gets the crowd going too.

Bush would lean on the podium and just answer?  Baloney.  He couldn’t even ad lib old sayings into his speech or answer.  Maybe George H Bush – but not Junior.

Phoey. Since when is waging war a criminal act? That would be like a law against self defense; there might be a law like that but so what no one with any brains would give such a legal concept oir law a second’s thought.

There is no such thing as a war criminal. War is about destroying the will and capability of others to resist you, up to their entire population, which once was the custom. It’s also traditional to kill enemy leaders, but that does not make Hitler Stalin Moao and the rest criminals, just assholes deserving to be killed. ASs was Sadam and Bin Laden.

oh fugit it

who cares. saving americam people things and interests is what matters.

(non troll post I hope lol) I am amazed at a political arguement in comments in an Article about a great tragedy.

Your comment looks like a ransom note from a rabid skinhead on crack .

The next time you get locked up , take a couple of books intstead of a yo-yo .

To say that 9/11 changed America is a gross understatement. It could well prove to be the lynchpin in a series of events that will determine the course of American history in the 21st century. Like the aggression and rise of nationalism in the early 20th century, which led to World War I, World War II, and the Cold War with it’s Korean and Vietnam wars, the 9/11 attacks and the Islamic Jihadism that spawned them will have lasting and profound effects on America for generations.

http://ewross.com/the_legacy_of_9-11_is_about_much_more_than_terrorism.htm

Some watched the ceremony and thought to themselves what a shame we have an impeached horndog for an ex-president, I watched the ceremony and thought to myself what a shame we have an unprosecuted war criminal as an ex-president.

He didn’t steal anything.  But he gave a good speech and I love the fact that he and Speaker Boehner will work together to raise the necessary millions to complete the Memorial to those brave Americans who took on the terrorists that day, and felt there was something worth dying for….America.

Maybe, if you’re only 20 years old.  Bush may not have been a good public speaker, but he did what needed to be done after 9/11 and kept this country safe on his watch.  And he was no dummy, as the left likes to make him out to be.

or a 14 year old. that must be how he picks up kids on the internet…

Bush is smarter than all of ‘em.  He served his country well and turned the tables on Al Qaida.

And let’s not talk bout “unnecessary” wars, while I remind you of Cosovo and Libya.

It was on almost every channel. Is your remote broken? Or do you just watch “Faux News” and only “Faux News”?

Clinton ALWAYS feels everyone’s pain…even my hemorrhoids

Glad to hear you enjoyed him.

AGREED

Bush always spoke better when NOT giving a speech, with some exceptions like during the days following 9/11.  Not everyone can be a public speaker, but that does not mean they cannot think or make decisions.

What.s not to like? A booming economy and a surplus at the Fed,

Blah, blah, blah…war ciminal, my ass.

Clinton was OFFERED Bin Laden on a silver platter and turned it down.  You’re history and opinions are VERY selective.  It was Bush and Cheney that SAVED THIS COUNTRY after 9/11, and it was policies they put in place that helped Obama get Bin Ladin with the help of Seal Team 6.

Clinton: So we tried to be quite aggressive with them [al Qaeda]. We got – well, Mr. bin Laden used to live in Sudan. He was expelled from Saudi Arabia in 1991, then he went to Sudan. And we’d been hearing that the Sudanese wanted America to start dealing with them again. They released him. At the time, 1996, he had committed no crime against America, so I did not bring him here because we had no basis on which to hold him, though we knew he wanted to commit crimes against America. So I pleaded with the Saudis to take him, ’cause they could have. But they thought it was a hot potato and they didn’t and that’s how he wound up in Afghanistan.

Sometimes you do make sense!

And others watched and thought that both of these men did a terrific job with their speeches and isn’t it a shame that neither one of them is still in office.

That’s a joke? right? You have got to be shitting me!

“Bravo to both Presidents, all of the speakers, MSNBC for their excellent coverage, and especially the families of the Flight 93 Heroes.”

No, I am replying to a person who is commenting on a post that has FOX news videos posted.

Obama got that job done!

Obama is the Commander and Chief. Or didn’t you know that was the presidents responsibility? What about the ordering of the taking out of the Somalian pirates?

Did we land on the moon? Just asking?

You shall not bear false witness against your neighbour.

Then my bad. Sorry.

Both eras suck. Hasn,t been a graet era of music since the 70′s. Not to say that all the recent music is bad, Just most of it.

Just because the only blowjobs you get are from guys doesn’t mean that’s true for everyone else.

where does it say “that liars go to hell’?

Tastless,even somewhat bigoted, But funny!

I don’t understand or maybe I’m missing something but I also heard Joe Biden speak at the ceremony for flight 93 HEROS….Bush and Clinton gave good speeches but, believe it or not Biden’s was so beautiful…he really should be given credit for his speech.  It came across so positive, so heartfelt, sincere  and truly meant.  It did not sound pre-prepared.
I am not a dem, never have been but I am capable of knowing a good talk when I hear it.

I think you forget it was Clinton that had the chance…when he was asked what he wanted them to do with Bin Laden he told them to let him go.  Bush did not have that chance or believe me he would have done something.

Couldn’t agree more.  All those progressive Clinton haters and their sponsors at MSNBC.  Finally, a point from a liberal I’ll agree with!

 Funny I don’t think Huntsman would be happy to have support from someone like you

exactly…
