Repubs Still Pushing for Revisionist Post-9/11 History

Yet again another Republican refuses to acknowledge reality when it comes to American history and the George Bush era. This time it's Republican Haley Barbour who pretty much summed up Giuliani's lies from earlier in the week.
"One of the things the American people appreciate about the Bush administration, after Sept.11, not one time did the terrorists who tried to kill us and end our way of life, not one time were they able to attack the mainland United States again."
That's just a flat out lie. Time and time again it's been proven to be a lie. And the media let it all go unchecked and with ease. It doesn't matter that Barbour was on Fox News when he said it. It wouldn't matter if he was on CNN or MSNBC or muff diving Barbara Walters, the media allow Republicans to do and say whatever they want. They can rewrite history and pretend things never happened, and then in the same breath criticize anyone who questions them. They have free reign to eclipse anything that doesn't fit into their Fantasy World. A world we are all forced to live in thanks to our wonderful media elite.
