Yeah, I compiled this a while back, Sept. 11, 2002....
One year ago today - a date which will live in infamy - the United States of America was suddenly and deliberately attacked. We have highly resolved that our dead shall not have died in vain, and we work to lift the dark threat of violence from our people and our future.
We rally the world to this cause by our efforts, by our courage. We, fighting for freedom, responsible for our actions, dedicated to the principles which made our country free, and trusting in God and in the United States of America, will not tire, will not falter, and we will not fail.
The world is very different now, and let every nation know, whether it wishes us well or ill, that we shall pay any price, bear any burden, meet any hardship, support any friend, oppose any foe, in order to assure the survival and the success of liberty.
The energy, the faith, the devotion which we bring to this endeavor will light our country, the land of the free and the home of the brave, and all who serve it— the glow from that fire can truly light the world.
In this spirit, we ask not what our country can do for us—but what we can do for our country--one nation, under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all.
And so, for the support of this Declaration, with a firm reliance on the protection of divine Providence, we mutually pledge to each other our Lives, our Fortunes and our sacred Honor.
