On September 11, 2001, Madeleine Cunningham was employed as an auditor with the New York State Department of Taxation and Finance. Â Their offices were located on the 86th and 87th floors of the south tower of World Trade Center 2. Thirty-nine of her co-workers perished on that terrifying day and she could have been one of them, however Madeleine had bittersweet fortune of not being in the office. This is just one of so many stories that happened on that historically tragic day.

Osama bin Laden is Dead
Just a few hours ago President Obama went on TV to tell the world that the US finally got Osama bin Laden.
After a 10 year hunt spanning two Presidents, Obama is finally able to lay claim to the death of America’s public enemy number one. The predictions about how this will change things have already begun.
People are already speculating that:
- This will help Obama during his re-election campaign
- The stock market will improve
- The world will be a safer place.
Whether or not hunting down bin Laden will really have these effects is yet to be seen…

Andrew Joseph Stack Flys Plane into Austin Federal Building – And Leaves Online Suicide Note!
February 18, 2010 By 9 Comments
Today Andrew Joseph (Joe) Stack had an extraordinary day. Presumably, he packed his lunch, had a cup of coffee, lit his house on fire, then hopped in a plane and flew it into a building full of 190 IRS employees.
Why? Well, he was a little more pissed off about taxes than the rest of us. …To say the least.
Here is a local news report of the fire reported to be his house. Interestingly, there was a woman and a kid inside who were rescued by neighbors. Wonder who they were?

To The Struggle Against World Terrorism – A Gift From Russia to the USA
July 14, 2009 By 8 Comments
As nations, the USA and Russia have often found themselves on different sides of various socio-political philosophies. And at times, an uneasy peace seems to exist between the two greatest nuclear powers the world has ever known. But despite all obstacles, the people of Russia reached out to Americans with a gesture of hope and kindness when President Putin dedicated an extraordinary monument as a gift in honor of those who perished in the September 11, 2001 attacks.
“To The Struggle Against World Terrorism” is a 100 foot high, bronze sculpture conceived of by Russian artist Zurab Tsereteli. Zurab is the President of the Russian Academy of Arts and Director of the Moscow Museum of Modern Art (among other things).
I suppose that only a man in a position such as this wields the necessary power to convince a government and it’s people to get behind a gift of this magnitude. Its certainly akin to the Statue of Liberty, a gift from the people of France.

Racism Rears it’s Ugly Head in Ohio – Aimed at Obama
October 20, 2008 By 15 Comments
Very interesting… This video (which is less than a week old and has been viewed almost 1.5 million times) was produced by a reporter for the English version of Al Jazeera, and was taken from interviews at a McCain / Palin conference in “a small town in” Ohio.
I say that right up front because some people are going to claim that this is not a reputable news source, and that perhaps this footage is even fake.
On the other hand, it seems pretty legitimate to me, and echos what I’ve been saying all along. Namely, that like it or not – Barack Obama is the next President of the United States… unless he get shot.

Let Us Not Forget September 11, 2001
September 11, 2007 By 19 Comments
Six years have passed. Say what you will about the war in Iraq, George Bush, or religion. America was attacked. The last time this happened was Pearl Harbor. The result – the USA demonstrated it’s political will and military might.
That makes the US 2 for 2. Two attacks on US soil = two foreign military powers and their allies utterly destroyed.
