White House Helpfully Issues Guide on How to Behave on 9/11

It's all about The O.
After weeks of internal debate, White House officials adopted the communications documents to shape public events and official statements, and they sought to strike a delicate balance between messages designed for these two very important but very different audiences on a day when the world’s attention will be focused on President Obama, his leadership team and his nation.
Wait, what? The world will be focused on Obama? Really? His leadership team? Huh? What leadership? His nation? What, does he own the United States or something?
Copies of the internal documents were provided to The New York Times by officials in several agencies involved in planning the anniversary commemorations. “The important theme is to show the world how much we realize that 9/11 — the attacks themselves and violent extremism writ large — is not ‘just about us,’ ” said one official, who spoke on condition of anonymity to describe internal White House planning.
It's not about us, it's just about Obama, his leadership team and his nation.

Remember, it's now his nation. Not our nation.

Expects some revisions to this drivel once the excrement hits the fan today.

    Yeah, brilliant -- blame Obama for a newspaper paraphrase of an administration document.

    "Obama's media". Maybe that will make it easier to help you understand the "brilliant" comments from some of the posters here. And the quotation marks are MINE.

  3. Sorry, but 9/11 was very much about America and it's foolish and ahistorical to claim otherwise.  Yes, there were people from other countries who also perished that day.  But it does every one of those victims a disservice to bathe the memory of that day in lefty mushiness.  This was an attack on civilization and decent people everywhere in a broad sense, but it was an attack on America specifically.
