Obama, McCain Mark 9/11 At Ground Zero

Candidates Also Appear Together At Presidential Forum On Service As Politics Put On Hold

(CBS/AP)  Presidential candidates John McCain and Barack Obama made ground zero their common ground for one rare day, free of politics and infused with memory.

Putting their partisan contest on a respectful hold, they walked together Thursday into the great pit where the World Trade Center once stood and, as one, honored the dead from the terrorist attacks of Sept. 11, 2001.

They walked down a long ramp flanked with the flags of countries, chatting at times, silent other times, and sharing a quick laugh at one point. Right behind them, Cindy McCain clutched Mayor Michael Bloomberg's arm - Michelle Obama was with her daughters in Chicago.

At the bottom of the ramp, the two rivals stopped to talk with a small group of family members of the attacks' victims of seven years ago. They laid flowers at the pit's commemorative reflecting pool - a pink rose from Obama, a yellow rose from McCain - bowed their heads and walked off to speak with fire and police personnel. There were no speeches.

"Thanks, we'll see ya," McCain told Obama as the Democrat patted the Republican's back and they shook hands and parted.

There was no mention of politics during the meeting, reports CBS News correspondent Dean Reynolds.

Following the ground zero appearance, the candidates came together in the evening at the Service Nation Presidential Candidates Forum at Columbia University. McCain and Obama discussed their views on public service with journalist moderators, sharing a handshake in between their separate sessions.

McCain said he would have asked Americans to serve after the 2001 terrorist attacks by joining neighborhood watches or helping guard nuclear plants, offering an implicit criticism of President Bush's approach seven years ago.

"I would have called them to serve," McCain said. "We needed to, at that time, take advantage of the unity in the United States of America." (Read more on the Service Nation forum.)

Earlier today, the Republican nominee spoke briefly at a ceremony in rural western Pennsylvania. The event was held on a large hilly field close to where United Airlines Flight 93, the third of four airliners commandeered by terrorists, crashed.

McCain asked every person "to be as good an American" as the passengers and crew of Flight 93. Obama, meanwhile, asked Americans to "renew that spirit of service and that sense of common purpose" that followed the Sept. 11 attacks.

With 54 days left in the heated presidential campaign, Thursday was unusual - a mutual political cease-fire in honor of the day terrorists forced four airplanes into the World Trade Center towers in New York City, a field in Shanksville, Pa., and the Pentagon in Washington, killing nearly 3,000 people.

The 2001 attacks transformed the nation in many ways, and one is that every anniversary since has found those holding or seeking office struggling for ways to appropriately pay homage.

Obama and McCain agreed to suspend all TV ads critical of each other for the day. Their first acts marking the anniversary were separate.

McCain attended the simple ceremony in western Pennsylvania. Investigators believe some of the 40 passengers and crew rushed the cockpit to thwart terrorists' plans to use that plane as a weapon like the others that. All aboard were killed when the plane went down.

CBS News' John Bentley reports that McCain said that no American should ever forget the "the heroism that occurred in the skies above this field on September 11, 2001.”

“They, and possibly I, owe our lives to the passengers who summoned the courage and love necessary to deprive our depraved and hateful enemies their terrible triumph,” McCain added. (Read more from Bentley on the From The Road blog.)

McCain said the only way to thank those who died on the flight is to "be as good an American as they were."

"We might fall well short of their standard, but there's honor in the effort," McCain said in brief remarks.

The day's truce was evident in remarks thanking McCain for traveling to Shanksville by Pennsylvania Gov. Ed Rendell, a Democrat who occasionally speaks against the Republican nominee as an Obama campaign surrogate. "It's an honor to have him here, not just as a presidential candidate but as a great American patriot," Rendell said.

As the nation marked the seventh anniversary of the attacks, a CBS News poll found that most Americans believe the U.S. is adequately prepared to deal with another terrorist attack against the country.

Obama issued a morning statement, recalling that on Sept. 11, 2001, "Americans across our great country came together to stand with the families of the victims, to donate blood, to give to charity, and to say a prayer for our country," he said. "Let us renew that."

He included what seemed a subtle dig - though at President Bush, not McCain - with a reference to the work Bush is leaving unfinished. "Let us remember that the terrorists responsible for 9/11 are still at large, and must be brought to justice," Obama said. His campaign said no criticism was intended by the remark.

Obama's only other planned outing Thursday was lunch in New York with former President Clinton.

Obama's running mate, Joe Biden, went to an American Legion post in suburban Cleveland with an invitation-only gathering of area police, firefighters and other first responders. The Republican vice presidential candidate, Sarah Palin, was in her home state of Alaska, attending an Army ceremony to send her eldest son, Track, off to duty in Iraq and taking interviews with ABC News.

Obama and McCain last appeared together in August when they shook hands at minister Rick Warren's megachurch in Orange County, Calif., where they spoke separately about faith and values. In June they attended the funeral of NBC newsman Tim Russert, sitting next to each other at the family's request.

[mabourn]

What do all of these statements have in common?? They were all posted today Sept. 11 in response to various articles on CBS. What does it say about us as Americans if people have nothing better to do than post this stuff on a day when the country is remembering the thousands that died on 911. Spirited debate is one thing... but this is just embarrassing. You should all be ashamed.

-We call Palin Trailer Trash, because, well, she is....
-TundraBilly Barbie/McWho? 08! All the JaysusBillies are praying for McWho? to die now?
-If I were a Messiah Barbie/McWho? partisan, I ''''d be worried that the End Times were coming and that I had my Left Behind Books with me
-Obama is the disgraceful Pig... with Lipstick on the Bu-tt
-The lipsticked pig has gone back to her home wallow. I hear they have nice mud in Alaska.....
-Here''''s the sound coming from Alaska today..."Oink, Oink."
-Palin: Lipstick on a fascist.
-Obama is lucky that he is supported by Many Self-Hating & Low Self-esteem White Liberals... and Blacks who thought Obama was "really" a Black.
-Getting a religious extremist on the ticket was just what the doctor ordered. Hopefully she gets her orders from a different God than W.
-The rotten hypocrite *** and her sidekick McBush will be exposed soon enough for their lies.

[walt1944-2009]

Today, there will be appearances by both Barack Obama and John McBush McCain at the site of the World Trade Center. The candidates will appear seperately and not together.

Obama will discuss why we are still looking for Bin Laden after 7 years and are no closer to finding him than we were on 9/12/01.

McCain will expound (for the umpteenth time) about his war experiences 35 years ago at the Hanoi Hilton, making embellishments to his story where needed.

Rudy Guiliani will speak about how he single-handedly saved New York City from his command post 5 miles away. Afterwards, Guiliani will lead loyal neocon Fascist Nazi Republicans on a "terrrrrrrrorist hunt" in Central Park looking behind every tree and shrub for any nasty "terrrrrrrrrorists" hiding there.

Don''t recall any grand memorial service for the Katrina Disaster. I realize that only 2,000 people died and the faiure of multiple governmental units killed them....but 2,000 people died...because of our ineptness.

[mabourn]

SHURCH4TRUTH,
So you are saying that all of those comments are ok? And unless you are ashamed of them, why would you care if I re-post them? I actually did originally have a few republican comments but if you will scan through the posts you will see that the personal attacks by the Dems outnumber those by the Republicans by about 4 to 1. That list was originally about 3 times longer but I had to cut off the bottom two thirds to get it under the 1500 word limit. I guess I should not even bother. If you think rhetoric like that is a legitimate debate tactic then I guess there is not much else I can say....

[mabourn]

And while we are at it, the below paragraph was lifted directly from the CBS "Rules of Engagement" for posting here.... Does anyone think that ANY of the comments I mentioned are actually ok under these rules?

Here''s the plain English: no libel, slander, no lying, no fabricating, no swearing at all, no words that teenagers use a lot that some people think aren''t swearing but we do, no insulting groups or individuals, no ethnic slurs and/or epithets, no religious bigotry, no threats of any kind, no bathroom humor, no comparing anyone to Hitler, Stalin or Pol Pot. We expect heated, robust debate, but comments should be polite and civil. We consider this to be public space so behave and write accordingly.

Half or more of the people posting here break those rules every day. The lies I have seen on this site (which are many), pale by the hatred of many of the posts. I have seen threatened violence, cuss words disguised so that the CBS censure doesn''t pick them up. In short, the intent of this board is being constantly abused. I like to discuss politics, but many people on this board apparently wish to fight, not reason. Good luck monitoring CBS.

Politico - 9.11.08

Polls showing John McCain tied or even ahead of Barack Obama are stirring angst and second-guessing among some of the Democratic Party%u2019s most experienced operatives, who worry that Obama squandered opportunities over the summer and may still be underestimating his challenges this fall.

%u201CIt%u2019s more than an increased anxiety,%u201D said Doug Schoen, who worked as one of Bill Clinton%u2019s lead pollsters during his 1996 reelection and has worked for both Democrats and independents in recent years. %u201CIt%u2019s a palpable frustration. Deep-seated unease in the sense that the message has gotten away from them.%u201D

There is not much doubt that Palin has helped bring McCain up ahead of Obama and I think in the days ahead that she will really have their figures high. Seem like nearly everyone loves her and she is very smart. At first I thought she would turn the women on, but I believe she is getting more men than women. Her approval rate with men is very high. Obama messed up when he threw Hillary under the bus.

Yes, he is ... just look at his attempts, along with other Republicans, to manipulate the outcome of our fall elections ... Do you think the falling gas prices (as we come into the election season) are a coincidence? How about his announcement yesterday that some troops are coming home (AFTER he leaves office)? How about his support for cash-producing PAC ads to swift-boat Obama? Do you think for a moment that Bush is running again?

Canada pays for every person through their sales tax. We can do it ... if we get the lobbyists out of the way while we figure things out. Go Obama!

Posted by emelder at 05:12 PM : Sep 11, 2008--- You are correct. It is more so a property rights issue than 1st. Amendment rights,.....CBS has rules to live and work by.

True free speechers wanting to voice it all can do so on their own blog,....they belong on their own property, not someone else''s. When any neighbor of mine is on my property, and I do not like their attitude, I can and will dis-invite them and have them removed.

John,

What issues do you want to debate? It''s all laid out...all you have to do is read...what are your questions

[keystonebull]

It is Obama who will bankrupt this country, just read his policies. Have you even done that? Mandatory Health care? What happens if you don''''t want it? Allowing illegals to have an ID? Pulling out of Iraq before it''''s time? Not drilling? Once you start to actually debate the issues with an Obama supporter, they get completely lost and confused. The have no idea why they are voting for Obama other than what they hear on NBC, CNN, ABC, and the other jokes of a "media" outlet. Its honestly really scary how many Obama voters have no idea about they issues. They just vote for Obama because of all the hype.
Woman or man, it is about the issues.
Have you read each one?

*******************
John I agree with you if he is elected but Obama is not going to be elected. He messed up when he threw Hillary under the bus and acted like he already had been elected. When McCain brought that pretty intelligent woman on board, he sealed the election for the Republicans. American does need change, but the McCain change is what we need, not Obama change. Hang in there and keep campaigning for McCain.

So? If they start something, do you suggest burying our heads like collective ostriches, or honoring our pledges to help allies?

No need to answer that, we already know where your head is.

[ubrew12]

freeanswers said: "Economist that truley look at his promises agree with you John.

Obama leaning on the top 5% of taxpayers while reducing 95% of citizens taxes is a losing proposal. The math indeed will cause a collapse in short order."

Wow. you sure sound educated talking off the top of your head with no statistics. Bush cutting taxes has doubled the national debt, taking it to $10 trillion. He may have cut YOUR taxes, but he dramatically raised the taxes of YOUR children, who will now have to pay for YOUR government services.

Now, I''m sure, thats a tax situation all Republicans can get behind.

I can see why y''all are ''pro-life''.

Someones got to pay your taxes, after all.

[rosieod4prez]

I don''t understand why BO would even put on aires that he is sorry about 9/11.


Does he think that OBL will go away if we leave Iraq ?



I can''t believe people are so stuck on wishful thinking that they''d vote for this idiot''s foll''s errand of allowing OBL rebuild.

[heathme2003]

freeanswers, so what is your candidate''s economic proposals? From what I''ve researched, I believe it''s more of the same as Bush''s. Our country is ALREADY bankrupted. Didn''t you see yesterday the federal deficit projection of $400B? Oh I''m sorry, I forgot the Republicans don''t want to talk about the issues, they only want to talk about Palin.

It is clear that McCain is taking orders from the people who were telling George Bush what to do. (They said OK to Palin who they could handle, and no to Huckabee who they couldn''t.)

It is now up to Barack Obama to convince us that he is not a socialist, that he knows that big business needs to be reined it, that he is for the small businessman, that he believes in lean, efficient government, and that he is not the captive of the trial lawyers, the unions, and other Democratic lobbies.
