Watching the Morning Show and having our early morning coffee together my husband and I could not believe what we had just saw....."Oh God please let this not be true "was our words and then tears from both of us. Frozen for a few minutes and then my husband yells "Oh no another plane". The fear of us living so close to the NASA Space center in Huntsville, Alabama came to mind....how safe are we? One year has flown by so fast that to this day Im still saying to myself...Did this really happen? Why did this happen? How could this happen? .....Are we a country for sale? Will the greed of the American Public let every enemy come into our country and buy whatever they need to destroy our country? Im scared....and I fear for my Grandchildren. I want to go back to the 50's and feel secure with my Government protecting me. I want to trust again....but Im sad to say I dont. Now one year later we hear on the news of the corporations doing our workers wrong....plants closing and moving out of our nation and families here left without income.....and on and on....greed of the almighty dollar seems to be the in thing for our country....I bow my head in shame.....TAKE CARE OF AMERICA FIRST.....AND AMERICANS WILL TAKE CARE OF THEMSELVES.......GOD BLESS AMERICA AND MAY WE GET BACK TO TAKING CARE OF OUR OWN AND BACK TO WHAT THIS GOVERNMENT WAS BASED ON.....
