I am going to see United 93 this afternoon, of course a matinee as I do like to save money wherever I can. I am not particularly surprised at some of the reactions to it. It in someways falls along the partisan lines as to even if we in a real war or not.
Of course we are in a real war and the brave souls on United 93 did what the government, the might of the United States armed forces could not do. They fought back and no doubt saved the United States Capitol building and or the White House from destruction at the hands of the Islamofacist terrorists that declared open war on the United States, its allies and the West in general.
We are in a war and we need to be reminded of it any way we can.
One of the aspects that I do not think President Bush has done a good enough job is to remind us that Iraq is not the only aspect on the War Against Terror and in trying to balance an America where the economy is the strongest it has ever been with the fact we are in war that will not just determine whether or not we continue to have a strong economy but whether or not Western civilization will survive the Islamofacist onslaught. Maybe no one, not even Ronald Reagan, could even pull it off.
I will provide a review of United 93 later.
