Our vice president equated

Pearl Harbor and 911 to what happened on January 6 and at least one person is saying the administration isn't playing politics? LOL
Anyone who thinks January 6 even compares to Pearl Harbor and 911 is a Partisan Hack.
And If a Partisan Hack is required to be a liberal, maybe I'm not as liberal as I thought. Js.

Doesn't matter. Pearl Harbor and 911 are in categories by themselves.
Very few things equate in any way whatsoever to Pearl Harbor or 911.

Yes, you changed it, but my question was about the OP.

which I see you just changed too. Good for you for acknowledging and fixing that mistake to be clearer in your argument.

You’re exactly right. She equated the dates as events that imprint us and deserve the same reverence. She mentioned that everyone who lived through those dates remember where they were on those dates. I remember exactly where I was on 9/11 and exactly how I felt. It did indeed imprint my mind. Sorry Harris, I do not remember where I was I Jan 6. To put those dates in the same conversation is disgusting and dishonors the fallen and the families.

Exactly. I remember 20 years later exactly what I was doing and where I was.
Nope, don't have a clue where or what I was doing January 6. And MOST who are HONEST will say the same.

I was about to mention the Challenger. I was in school. They carted in a TV for us to watch after the explosion.

I sent someone to buy a TV so we could watch 911

coverage. I knew the tower was coming down and was watching when it did. When I picked my children up from school we had a really serious talk about what had happened and the uncertainty going forward. One was too little, but the oldest was very interested and concerned. I knew they found out about it at school.

is this talking point that dems are politicizing January 6th. Like what do you call the politician and the people who supported his efforts to install himself as President despite losing an election? How can that not be political?

"You can believe January 6th was bad, and at the same time believe it’s nothing like WWII, 9/11 or any other war,”
Pretty much how I feel. Partisan hacks want to equate them all.

You can not be serious when you say Jan 6 was a greater threat. Dec 7 destroyed our Pacific fleet. 9/11 brought New York and the country to its knees. I beg you to stop such disrespectful talk.

It's true. As the facts come out of the Jan. 6th commission
Jan 6, 2022, 6:13 PM
|

it only becomes more and more obvious that the only reason that our Democracy survived that day is because Trump and the GOP didn't have enough people in place willing to execute the plan.
As GOP consultant Rick Wilson said today "An unpunished coup is a training exercise."

What's weird is law enforcement hasn't found all of those same facts.
For four years we were told to believe the FBI and law enforcement. Now the FBI says no coordination and no evidence Trump was directly involved and suddenly all those that preached trust the fbi, no longer takes them at their word.
LOL
Of course, a committee can find anything they want. And one more reason why I say this is politics.

Agree. Over 400K Americans died to stop the Japanese and the Germans. Fortunately we had leaders like Roosevelt and the English had Churchill to lead the Allies out of the abyss, instead of Biden who wears a mask outdoors on the beach to frolic with his new dog and Jill. WTH is he afraid of?
Now we have President Paw Paw who does nothing but stoke further division. To equate January 6th to Pearl Harbor or even 9/11 is just not intellectually honest. Western civilization as we know it, was up for grabs in the 1940’s.
That was not true on 1/6/21. To say so, is pure hyperbole.

Democrat is the wrong party for you, if you are a liberal. I'm glad most of them have at least stopped using that term to describe themselves.

There are a few true liberals still clinging to the democrat party but that party is gone. The party is now a socialist party and they really don’t even deny it now. I never thought I would see the day when Americans thought socialism is a good choice. Very sad.

Yes. The comparison is absurd.
Jan 7, 2022, 8:06 AM
|

Not just because of loss of life, but because of the nation-altering impact those two events had on America. It's hard to argue Jan. 6 will have that same effect. Eventually, it will be a sordid blip in our history, but not something that's recalled in the same light as Pearl Harbor or 9/11. Probably just a little paragraph in history books. It'll only gain more significance if it leads to more uprisings. And successful ones.
It'll be called what it was. A failed coup by a small, sad, pathetic group of individuals and white-washed/downplayed/supported by other sad and pathetic individuals, but most of America knew what it was and moved on.
So yes, comparing Jan. 6 to the other two is pretty ridiculous hyperbole.
