When Japan surprised the world by attacking the American naval base at Pearl Harbor, Hawaii on Dec. 7, 1941, the battle cry “Remember Pearl Harbor” rallied the nation as it went to war.
Fast-forward 72 years later and liberal America’s slogan in the aftermath of the attack on Sept. 11, 2001 — the first attack on American soil since Pearl Harbor — is “It’s Time We Move On.”
At least, according to liberal commentator Bob Beckel, who said Saturday on Fox News’ “Cashin’ In” that “9/11 is over a decade old; it’s time we move on.”
And Twitchy reminds us that this is not the first time Beckel has said as much. Back in 2010, he said: “Look, at some point, I know it’s sensitive here in New York and probably New Jersey, but we are going to have to get over 9/11.”
The reaction to Beckel’s “despicable” comment, as fellow Fox News contributor Jonathan Hoenig labelled it, was predictable — as chronicled by Twitchy:
“9/11 was a decade ago, move on”- @RobertGBeckel. How about “Never Forget”- @JonathanHoenig. Totally agree with Jonathan! #CashinIn

#CashinIn is explosive today! @RobertGBeckel says move on from 9-11-01. I agree with @JonathanHoenig ‘instead of move on, Never forget!’ — Jacqué Stoddard (@jacquestoddard) August 17, 2013
@JonathanHoenig @ericbolling “9/11 is over a decade old, it’s time we move on” may be the worst thing @RobertGBeckel has ever said. — Stephen F Scherb (@SteveScherb) August 17, 2013

@RobertGBeckel I wish you knew how wrong you almost always are. Go outside in NYC and tell the victims and their families to “MOVE ON”. jerk
