Yesterday Joe Biden claimed he was at Ground Zero the day after 911, plagiarizing Hillary Clinton 2021, when he was actually speaking in the well of the US Senate on September 12, 2001

 Biden Falsely Claims He Was at Ground Zero the Day After 9/11

I remember standing there the next day, and looking at the building. And I felt like I was looking through the gates of hell, it looked so devastating . . ..

Clinton 2021:

Clinton visited ground zero in Manhattan one day after the attacks, flying in with Senator Chuck Schumer. She described to "CBS Mornings" co-host Tony Dokoupil the level of catastrophic damage she saw. "We landed at LaGuardia, we took a helicopter, and we circled over ground zero. And I cannot imagine anything that looked more like the gates of hell. I thought I'd be prepared because I'd seen it on TV, but the TV screen contained it. And circling over it was something that I think about and will never forget," Clinton said.

Clinton 2016:

"it was as close to depiction of hell that I’ve ever personally seen.”

More.

This is my face, bitch

 

Still there

 

An anniversary of sorts, more of a milestone I guess

How all of Afghanistan should have looked the day after 911, but didn't because we no longer have the stomach for real war

Thank you . . . wish I could say we've got your back

Minnesota's Somali Representative to the US Congress Ilhan Omar describes 9/11 as "some people did something"

Ilhan Omar Trivializes 9/11 Terrorist Attacks: 'Some People Did Something':

"CAIR was founded after 9/11 because they recognized that some people did something, and that all of us were starting to lose access to our civil liberties," Omar said.

Remembering the incompetence of Hillary's beloved California and FBI on 9/11

Who ya gonna believe, the mayor or the cops?

EXCLUSIVE: Some Jersey City Muslims did celebrate 9/11, cop and residents say:

Numerous people called police to report an exultant crowd on the roof of 2801 John F. Kennedy Blvd., a distinctive, five-story apartment building at the intersection of Sip Avenue, said retired officer Arthur Teeter, who worked in the radio room at police headquarters on Sept. 11. ... Teeter, the officer who worked in the radio room, said the address was one of several where 911 callers cited rooftop celebrations. "There were enough calls that it was disturbing," he said. "That's the only word I can use." ...

The officers, including a high-ranking official, said their reluctance to speak publicly also stemmed from concern they would run afoul of Jersey City Mayor Steven Fulop, who has repeatedly said celebrations did not take place. "I saw it with my own eyes," the ranking officer said. "In the end, police officers are professionals, so we just observed that stuff and sucked it up."

Hillary falls down, again

Breaks toe this time.

In September 2016 she would have fallen down at the 911 remembrance but for handlers to prop her up.

And of course she fell and hit her head after being summoned to testify before Congress in 2012.

And they mocked Gerald Ford for being a klutz.

Hey Hillary, put a sock in it, it's you who couldn't stand the heat on the 9/11 anniversary

Two days ago Hillary claimed she was in NY on 911 when she was in DC singing on the Capitol steps

And John Hinderaker has the videos to prove it, here.

What a creepy ass liar she is.

Clinton drops 75% in ABC News / WaPo poll after 9/11 health debacle

From +8 on 9/8 to +2 on 9/22.

That's gotta hurt.

There she goes . . . just bob bob bobbin' along!

Video of Hillary this morning nearly collapsing after leaving 911 event early due to illness

There's something seriously wrong with this woman's health. They propped her up against the pillar to keep her from falling while waiting for the transport to arrive, and basically had to manhandle her into the van.

Video here.

On 9/11/16 Rasmussen has Clinton +4, LA Times/USC has Clinton +1.4

The Real Clear Politics average shows Clinton +3.1 from eight recent polls, with an average margin of error of 3.5.

Marco Rubio was frequently absent for high profile Florida 9/11 committee meetings just like he's absent in the US Senate

It's not a bug. It's a feature. Expect that also if elected president.

WaPo reports here:

Rubio did not give the job the attention that legislative leaders expected. He skipped nearly half of the meetings over the first five months of the panel’s existence, more than any of his colleagues, according to Florida legislature records. He missed hours of expert testimony and was absent for more than 20 votes — prompting the state House speaker who had given him the assignment to express concern, the committee’s chairman said.

Mock Trump and Code Pink all you want, Pat Buchanan still asserts we found no WMD in Iraq, no connection to 9/11, and Bush lied about it

Here, as recently as March 19, 2013:

Of the three goals of the war, none was achieved. No weapon of mass destruction was found. While Saddam and his sons paid for their sins, they had had nothing at all to do with 9/11. Nothing. That had all been mendacious propaganda.

Where there had been no al-Qaida in Iraq while Saddam ruled, al-Qaida is crawling all over Iraq now. Where Iraq had been an Arab Sunni bulwark confronting Iran in 2003, a decade later, Iraq is tilting away from the Sunni camp toward the Shia crescent of Iran and Hezbollah.

What was the cost in blood and treasure of our Mesopotamian misadventure? Four thousand five hundred U.S. dead, 35,000 wounded and this summary of war costs from Friday’s Wall Street Journal:

“The decade-long (Iraq) effort cost $1.7 trillion, according to a study … by the Watson Institute for International Studies at Brown University. Fighting over the past 10 years has killed 134,000 Iraqi civilians … . Meanwhile, the nearly $500 billion in unpaid benefits to U.S. veterans of the Iraq war could balloon to $6 trillion” over the next 40 years. ...

We are not known as a reflective people. But a question has to weigh upon us. If Saddam had no WMD, had no role in 9/11, did not attack us, did not threaten us, and did not want war with us, was our unprovoked attack on that country a truly just and moral war?

Powerline Blog finds story behind WaPo archives paywall about people celebrating on 911 in New Jersey which WaPo's Glenn Kessler somehow couldn't . . .

. . . or wouldn't find in fact-checking Trump's claim he saw thousands in Jersey celebrating on TV.

At a minimum there were people celebrating on Jersey rooftops as they watched the catastrophe unfold.

Still waiting for the video, but that'll be like waiting for the news media to replay video from the attacks at all.
