Liberals,In the days following 9/11?

Question

In the days following 9/11 was it a weird feeling for Liberals to be supporting their country for a change? Granted you got to go back to blaming America for all the ills of the world soon enough,but was it odd to be supporting America for awhile,or was it just an act anyway?

Answer 1

I am not waiting with bated breath for their answers this time. Liberals have already been answering this question with their actions towards their country, and their responses to the other thousands of questions on this forum, relating to 9/11, our Troops, the Bush Administration, and conspiracy theories.
I am now able to predict their hatred of America. It will be evident in their responses to your question....here we go.....

Answer 2

I stay in Europe. I remember, it grew to become into around 3PM, i grew to become into sitting at my computing gadget, enjoying a video pastime, once I heard on the radio that a "small airplane" had crashed into the WTC. i presumed "wow, i've got have been given to work out this", so I ran to the television and grew to become on CNN (the only US channel shall we get on the time). a jiffy later I observed the 2d airplane hit the towers and that's once I realised that this wasn't in straightforward terms a airplane crash. I spent the the remainder of the day in front of the television, looking on the activities. I sat there with my kinfolk and we did not say something, we in simple terms watched the show in disbelief. it incredibly is a sort of suggestions that have made an prolonged-lasting impression. I nevertheless experience unhappy whilst i think of roughly that day. and that i'm not an American, I stay 6000km from long island, so i will in straightforward terms think of the end result it would have had over there. yet on that day, all of us felt like individuals.

Answer 3

ask the media, just like other liberals it had to be weird for them, especially now they have to pretend to like America on Memorial day and on 9/11, and 4th of July, people might start to think they aren't taking other countries sides, then what would happen, fair news, noooo.

Answer 4

You're right. And you could tell very easily who the liberals were. Right after 9/11, everyone was pratriotic and thanking the firefighters, police, and soldiers. Then, as the days went by, less and less people thanked them. MOST of them liberals, as they forgot about 9/11. As I said in another post, I am a firefighter. Right after 9/11 we'd have people come up to us on a daily basis with sincere thank you's with tears in their eyes. Nowadays, we can't get through an intersection with lights and sirens without someone giving us the finger, because they have something more important to do. A bunch of my fellow firefighters brought a truck to a busy intersection (not blocking it) and about 50-100 firefighters held signs saying that we support our troops, and to stay safe. Ignorant liberals tried to have police ARREST the firefighters, complained that the truck was used in a political display, and called the firefighters war mongerers. They even told one chief to resign and that he should be in jail. YEA, THOSE LIBERALS REALLY KNOW HOW TO BE PATRIOTIC.

Anyway, how did we get back? The next weekend we showed up with 3 trucks (all privately owned) and about 250 firefighters from every department in the county. How did they liberals respond? They complained that the parking of the fire trucks was illegal and that they should be ticketed. Then they complained that we get special treatment as the police did not ticket anybody.

It's a shame to say, but the only thing that will make a liberal patriotic is to have another terrorist attack. Even then, they'll probably just blame it on Bush.

Answer 5

I have always supported my country. I believe my country should strive to do what's right, and avoid doing what's wrong.

I believe my country should live up to the ideals that define it.

The people who have been telling you that liberals don't support their country have been lying to you.

It's the people who hate the ideals of America (like those people who have been lying to you all this time) who are unAmerican.

If you hate America, and the right of freedom of thought, then why don't you move to a nice dictatorship, where everyone is forced to go along with whatever brutality their leader feels like committing?

You'd LOVE being a citizen of North Korea, for example -- just your kind of place.

BTW, I was NOT among the 90% of Americans who suddenly thought Bush was good -- just because we had been attacked by murderers.

I thought all those people had lost their minds.

We've now seen the results of mindless love of leader -- we've lost everything that American ever stood for.

Answer 6

As a liberal, I have & always support my country & troops & I also supported the fact we should go after the person to blame for 911 & if my memory is correct, Bid Laden is not from Iraq. Bush diverted too many troops to Iraq who had no WMD's, but Cheney did, as he shot his friend, Al-Queda was not there when the US invaded Iraq, they came over after we invaded iraq. Could this war have anything to do with OIL? Why would Bush consider sending weapons to Saudi Arabia who harbours more terrorist than most countries & who were aboard both planes that hit both towers in new York. How can Bush sleep at night I wonder. Can't wait until he is out of office. Good ridance, to bad rubbish(Bush & Cheney)

Answer 7

Get off it!!!
Supporting your country and supporting the government's decisions are two very different things.
It's surprising that guys who are so high on democracy all the time don't seem to understand the concepts of loyal opposition and peaceful dissent.
It sounds like you'd have been more happy under the Saddam regime.

'My country, right or wrong' is a thing no patriot would ever think of saying except in a desperate case. It is like saying 'My mother, drunk or sober.'
Gilbert K. Chesterton

Answer 8

Nearly every American supported the Afghan invasion to get to OBL and Al Qaeda!!

When many of us started protesting was when Bush took us in a new direction in Iraq. Especially considering that OBL was never captured and Bush said that he doesn't even think of OBL and that OBL was no longer America's Most Wanted and that he was no longer a priority!!!

Capitalism was the reason this happened. Trying to secure a U.S. led Capitalist stronghold in the Middle East. I really think Bush looked at accomplishing this goal as his 'moon landing'. Accomplishing something people said couldn't be accomplished!

Answer 9

Some of them never even did after that tragic day. I still remember coming home after work on the evening of 9/11 and hearing the first words out of my anti-American liberal roommate's pi-hole- "That Godd***ed Bush!" I moved out soon afterwards. "Blame America first" liberals just make me sick!

Answer 10

Conservatives, is it a good feeling to have more loyalty to your party than you do to your country? Do you feel our country should be called the DIVIDED States of America so you don't have to associate with any people you think are too liberal or who have a different point of view than yours? Is the Second Amendment the only amendment you care about in the Constitution, or do you remember that the First Amendment gives us freedom of speech?

Is loving your country just an act?
