It was exactly six years ago today that America was attacked by coordinated terrorist/suicide Islamic extremists.
Over 3, 000 Americans lost their lives.
Six years on, we still remember the tragedy that befell a nation. This is something the world will never forget and we say long live America and every place else!

Perez Hilton's open letter to Britney
I read this on my favourite gossip blog, Perezhilton.com, and thought some of you might enjoy reading this. It's a letter to Britney for messing up big time at the VMA's that took place this past weekend. Hilarious...
Dear Britney,Fuck you!
FUCK YOU!!!!!!!
Are you fucking serious???
What you did was disrespectful to your few remaining fans. And it was disrespectful to MTV!
You didn’t even try!!!!!
You should have just cancelled, bitch.
Your performance was beyond pathetic. The old Britney Spears, who was at one point (a long time ago) truly great, would be embarrassed by your lack of professionalism and utterly shiteous appearance at the VMAs.
Where was Criss Angel? Where was the magic? And by ‘magic’ we don’t mean any tricks or illusions.
You seemed dead onstage. You have lost that spark and shine that used to ooze out of you!
We all know you lipsynch, but you couldn’t even do that well at the VMAs!
And you barely danced!
You couldn’t even get good hair extensions??????
You have no one to blame for your failure but YOU!
There was no way you were going to be good. You were out partying every night before the VMAs for three days in a row until almost sunrise! You were probably still drunk or high during your performance!!! You almost tripped a few times, you fucking mess!!!!!!!
No bullshit excuse that you or your camp will come up with can make up for how pathetic your performance was.
You heard Sarah Silverman was going to make fun of your kids and it upset you? Deal with it! Rise above it! Or don’t go on!
A true professional will DELIVER - no matter what!!!!
Let’s repeat that. It’s worth repeating.
A true professional will deliver - NO MATTER WHAT!!!!!!!!!!!!
What you did was inexcusable!
Your new manager, Jeff Kwatinez, should be ashamed of himself! You have tainted his reputation and everyone at his company, The Firm, should run and hide.
Your record label, Jive, must be thrilled.
You should apologize to everyone, Britney!!!!
You are pathetic!
FUCK YOU!
xoxo
Perez
P.S. Your beer belly looked hot!
We hope you are getting help, Britney. Seriously. Sincerely. You need help! We hope you have a good psychiatrist!
Y'all should see the comment...over 5, 000. I feel sorry for Britney. I hope she gets her life back on track and surprise the people who think it's over for her.
