[QUOTE="The Other Side, post: 742599, member: 17969"] Moreluck, "stupid is as stupid does" FOX and the RNC surrogates on TV and Radio run with this idea that Obama COMPARED the Gulf spill with 911 and then you pick up the ball and run with it on this blog. Here is the quote that is being used by the right wing nuts: "In the same way that our view of our vulnerabilities and our foreign policy was shaped profoundly by 9/11, I think this disaster is going to shape how we think about the environment and energy for many years to come," he told the US political website [URL="http://www.politico.com/news/stories/0610/38458.html"][COLOR=#005689]Politico[/COLOR][/URL]." It doesnt take an english major to comprehend or assertain that the president is speaking about VULNERABILITIES and how the events of 911 CHANGED OUR COUNTRIES THINKING and this oil spill exposes the very same VULNERABILITIES and they will ultimately CHANGE OUR THINKING about oil and the environment. Only a person with a lacking education would interpret this statement any other way. This sentence in no way represents a comparision of a terrorist act with an industrial accident. There are lessons to learn in every accident or terrorists attack. It can be effectively argued that both 911 and the gulf spill could have been prevented, however, in each case using retrospect, we can find solutions to prevention down the road. The 911 families who originally aired this complaint are out of line and do not grasp the concept of what is being said. Peace. [/QUOTE]
