Bill Whittle has a new Afterburner from PJTV that covers what we did right, primarily in taking the fight to the enemy rather than waiting for them to come to us:" Historical revisionism/armchair navel-gazing on behalf of the tattered reputation of the Bush/Cheney Middle East foreign policy fiasco? Thanks, I needed a laugh!!

One thing that I really admire about how BillG manages the Forum here is that he does go out of his way to be tolerant of all views, without any apparent bias. That's a mighty rare thing on the Internet! It's also a Good Thing IMHO that when one or the other crosses some line, that we're given the opportunity to work it out amongst ourselves first. FWIW, a lot of screen names have changed, as previously banned members have snuck back in. On occasion the new-old member will even be allowed to reclaim his/her original screen name. I don't have a clue how this process works, but never see it playing out in public. BillG moves in mysterious ways. (Don't let that go to your head, Bill. )

I agree that would never be the intention of the organizers. But I have watched enough crowds to know that the Ground Zero volunteers' fans are most likely to degenerate into an ethanol-fueled celebration, shouting "USA USA" and other banalities that would have disrupted the 9-11 ceremonies. Hence my choice of words. A victory lap is for the benefit of the crowd. If the crowd shows up expecting a victory lap, all well-meaning intentions fly out the door. I'm glad that they're getting their due recognition in a separate ceremony.

Sorry... I type a LOT of stuff I end up deleting before I post. Once in a while something slips. No matter what you think of Obama, I think constantly being disrespectful of a guy doing the best he can, with what he was left to work with, kinda sucks.
