1. We'll hear 9/11 next week from "real American", not.

2. Didn't he mention it at least once?
True, it may not have been in the gratuitous "Ghouliani" way that we're all used to but I thought he mentioned it at least once in response to McSame's "gates of hell" comments? Or did I just imagine it?

4. He never said "9/11"
But he did talk about George W. Bush and John McCain invading Iraq instead of going after those who attacked us.

5. He mentioned 9/11 twice.
For while Senator McCain was turning his sights to Iraq just days after 9/11, I stood up and opposed this war, knowing that it would distract us from the real threats we face. When John McCain said we could just “muddle through” in Afghanistan, I argued for more resources and more troops to finish the fight against the terrorists who actually attacked us on 9/11, and made clear that we must take out Osama bin Laden and his lieutenants if we have them in our sights. John McCain likes to say that he’ll follow bin Laden to the Gates of Hell – but he won’t even go to the cave where he lives.

6. Yes he mentioned it and said 9/11 twice. You didn't imagine it.
snip from his speech:

3. AND there were too many nouns, verbs and subject agreement.
Almost like a literate person wrote the speech. Wait.... One did.
