Just a heads-up TAMs on the 3rd Hour and details also for everyone regarding special guests for tomorrow’s Tammy Radio.
As you might have already deduced considering how late it is, there will be no 3rd Hour tonight. I got in so late tonight after such a busy day, I’m hoping you won’t mind if we skip the update. This is a rare event, but I do think I’ll be of more use to you getting a good night’s sleep for tomorrow’s show 😉 Keep in mind, with 9/11 being Saturday, we will have some memorial for the tragedy tomorrow. I started getting sad a few days ago and I realized it was our tragic anniversary that weighed on my mind. With “Imam” Rauf out there continuing the threats against us and using the 9/11 site for the Islamist agenda it reminds me how much work we have to do.
Besides remembrance of 9/11, two guests join me tomorrow. First Ginny Rapini at 1130am PT. As you know, I’ll be speaking at the Tea Party Rally in Sacramento and 9/12 Ginny is the Rally Coordinator, as well as the NorCal Tea Party Patriots Coordinator and National Board Member of Tea Party Patriots. We’ll talk about Sunday’s rally and the activities of the Tea Party Patriots.
At 1230pm PT, Noel Sheppard from Newsbusters joins us. We’ll discuss if the media negligently created the Koran burning controversy. My opinion? Yes. Noel and I will cover that and other media issues.
And, of course, tomorrow brings our weekly “Palin Report.” As always, there’s lots to talk about! 🙂
Lastly, I want to thank Pat S. and Chris for being so helpful today. They always are, of course, but I did have some extra requests of them today, and they made a lot possible. Thanks you two 🙂
No Worries…Sleep Well!
You will of course owe us…We want an interview with the DYI guy!… 😉
Unruly peasants!
lol…yup!
I agree. Bring on Tim Taylor!
Tammy, it’s no biggie.
You’re long overdue for a vacation as it is.
Now might be a good time considering how heavily this particular occasion weighs upon all of us.
yeh don’t forget…sarah invited tammy up to alaska!!…maybe after glenn leaves, tammy can take up a spare room at the palin house 😀 lol…then they can BOTH punch some evil in the face at those yoga classes with sarah’s friend, but they’d need to speed it up a bit, i think..OR how about some running with sarah, or maybe kick boxing? 😀
Don’t forget the canned food toss!
hey feel better tammy..u know what i do around this time of year?
i just stay angry AND EXPRESS IT…u know depression or some forms thereof are anger turned inwards…so i think if you find ways…(maybe physical) to express your anger, you’ll feel MUCH better..i hope you do…i still think u gotta get one of those obama punching things…that like bobble on the floor..that wud be a great way to start 🙂 looking forwards to tomorrow…sweet dreams 🙂 *lays a bouquet of flowers besides u while ur sleeping 🙂
Taking care of your self is definitely top priority. I love the technologies; allows us to be flexible kinda like bendy straws. 😀
I was about 3-4 blocks from the Pentagon in Arlington Virginia when the plane Flight 77 hit. From our window (10th floor) we could see the smoke and flames coming out of the Pentagon. We could see across DC at both the White House, The Washington Monument and the Congress… we watched for a about 20 minutes waiting to see which building would be hit next. You could see planes taking off from Andrews. The alarm system went off in the building and we were told by security to evacuate the building, that another plane was coming our way and we were in the flight path of all of the potential targets. There was a possibility our building could be hit if the plane was damaged of out of control.
We had to walk down the stairways, people were crying and running down the stairs to the outside courtyard where we gathered. We did not know if we were safe there or not, but there was no place else to go.
Overhead sonic booms would scare people and they would scream out and start ducking and crying as the F16’s circled above. Cell phones were dead, traffic was a disaster, people were wandering all over the place just trying to figure out what to do next. Prayer circles were developing everywhere, people were being consoled because they had loved ones who worked in the Pentagon and there was no way to know what was going on. Police and fire sirens were constantly going on in the background.
We picked a place in the grass in the shade of an ornamental tree and just sat there. The discussion basically revolved around the idea that whoever was responsible was going to get their ass kicked very, very hard.
After about 3 hours of this, after we had heard the plane heading our way had crashed in Shanksville, we decided to try and go home. Still no phone. It is about 20 miles west to our destination and it took close to 6 hours to get out of Arlington and down 66 to 28. We were riveted to the radio the whole way.. it seemed like we were only in the car a few minutes. People in traffic all around us were crying in their cars, shaking their heads or looking up through the windshield into the sky.. terrified.
All in all, we were not so much scared as angry. We knew exactly what this meant: we were at war.
The oddest thing was at night. Near Dulles in the evening, there is a constant stream of aircraft landing and taking off. In the sky you would normally see the lights of planes stacked up on their approach routes. That night, nothing. No lights in the sky, no sound of takeoffs… nothing. It was unnerving and it went on for days.
I lost 8 friends in the Pentagon attack.
Their families are still recovering, the children who were tiny at the time have ground up. Talking to the kids, they cannot remember what their lost parent looked like, they only have photographs.
They have no idea what they have lost, they have forgotten the pain as they should.
We do know who and what we lost that day.
Let us never forget who pays for the delusional liberal policies of appeasement in the name of peace… that’s the least we can do to honor those who lost their lives that day.
WOW…Cow!
Thanks for sharing your story!
Never Forget.

Wow, indeed morecowbell.
So sorry that you lost so many friends. That must have been a very scary day for everyone there. I forget some times that the kids in 2001 are now grown. In fact some kids today, just learn about it, but have never experienced it. These families are so brave. I could go on, but I would never recover. May God be with all these families.

No they didn’t “negligently” create the story, they “intentionally, maliciously” created it to give the world something to point at as proof that Christians are nutty hateful backward intolerant people who like to go around picking on those poor, misunderstood, abused muslims.
No one really cares if a koran gets burned. It’s all about posturing on both sides and the media and the left of course take the side of the muslims. How about some of this huffing and puffing and feigned outrage over the next terrorist attack or honor killing in America? I feel like I’m living in an upside down world, but the Bible says they will call evil, good and good, evil.
A truly somber event that deserves a fitting annual commemoration — not unlike December 7th gets the audio replays of FDR (ack, gag) of his comments (good–this time). I cannot imagine the men entombed in capsized ships who tapped frantically, then more slowly…for days…and days – and their mates who stood guard above going a bit mad hearing it.
I know that we need to hear and see the replays of the planes hitting the towers, the 911 calls from the towers and the airplane passengers, the farewell calls on answering machines, the firemen’s anguished calls for help themselves (who indeed is left to help them??), the falling people who had to chose – death while fully conscious by incineration or impact (HOW in the world do you decide THAT??) — but I do NOT look forward to any of it. Our children MUST hear and see it all, yet I long to spare them from it and do not want them to become inured to it either.
God save us — from the enemy outside the gates, the enemy within, from ourselves.
I was at my desk on the 8th floor in a 40-story building. The tallest building in the state if Wisconsin. When I first started working there, I thought it was so neat to work there, that the building was so prominent and could be seen towering above the rest if downtown from miles away. Co-workers started filtering in, saying things like “Some jerk flew his plane into the World Trade Center” at first. We soon learned the real story as we turned on TV’s and radios and of course, that was the end of any work getting done. The rest if the day is a blur – being glued to the TV and trying to call the friends and relatives I have in NYC to make sure they were OK. I also remember Sept. 12, crossing the street to the nearby sub shop for lunch and seeing the look on everyone’s faces, regardless of sex, color or age-we all had the deer-in-the-headlights look, that we didn’t even know what hit us, literally. I remember my 5 year old niece asking me, “Auntie Marni, what does ‘jihad’ mean?” It hit me that this was her ‘loss of innocence’, in a similar way that JFK’s assassination was to me. I was 8 at the time and will never forget the feeling of not being able to believe something like that could possibly happen. I remember not knowing what ‘assassinate’ meant. Thank you to all you TAM’s, and Tammy, for bring the wonderful people you are and helping me believe in our future. As Tammy would say, “I LOVE US!”
Newsbusters has it right. The media and then the Obama administration pumped this up out of all proportion. Obama invited violence by ramping up the “warnings”.
