September 11, 2011 – Tenth Anniversry From Rochester, NY


Opening my local paper today, 9/11/11, I expected tributes to what happened that day. What I read is we are ‘islamophobes’, bigots and racists. Moslem stories flood the pages…I went to the online editions and decides to post the liberal spin of the day. This is by no means what they have in the printed edition…moslem photos, Imams comments ect…Instead of being on a “let’s roll” mentality in Western NY, they are in a “let’s roll over” mindset.
