In Memorium - 11 Sept 2001

[Steel God]

As a general rule, we try and keep politics out of the Blitz. Steve has walked a fine line here with this post, but I will allow it to stand as I would a post commemorating other national days of observance (ANZAC Day, Memorial Day, Remembrance Day, for examples). Given that this event is still relatively recent in our past, I understand that some make take exception to that position, but I would ask that no matter if you agree, or disagree, you not besmirch the honored dead with a debate on the matter.

I hope that all Americans will take the opportunity this Patriot Day to reflect on what patriotism means to you, and how you might best answer your countries call.

Thank you.
