Wait, that explains 90% of Ohio.

That’s how Mel Gibson spells it. Didn’t you see Braveheart?

FREEEEEEEEDOM!

ow. that hurt.

The “memorial” itself — which she doesn’t mention — includes two large reflecting pools, a tree-lined open-air plaza, walls inscribed with the names of victims, a reserch library, a lecture hall, a musoleum containing remains of unidentified victims, spaces for candle-lighting and so on.

Please, people, explore this site and here and see what the entire complex will look like. Then you can truly appreciate the depth and deception of the Malkin whining and distortion.

While at those websites, you might also want to take a gander at the hundreds of people and organizations involved in various administrative and advisory capacities for the development of Ground Zero. They include some liberals, some conservatives (i.e., one of the four members on the board of the IFC is VP of Dow Jones & Company, and a grand poobah at the Wall Street Journal), hundreds of people of no discernable political persuasion, victims’ family members, etc.

I’m guessing it will be underground because they’re going to want to include part of the retaining wall.

I see a “monument” everyday to a frightened land, ruined lives, murder and torture, and a vapid lying president who’s glib pronouciamentos have killed so many.

But, alas, how a simple granite memorial, like a spire reaching to heaven inscribed with the names of the fallen would be so beautiful.

But, it isn’t political enough! NO! The wretched and war lie loving “conservatives” want “The Big Show!” You see, such a show glosses over the failures of the neo-con policies…..It isn’t the Liberals who wanted the Iraq fiasco, it was the conservatives who when told what to support conformed like good little frighened people do.

Well, we don’t need another big show, just a memorial to the fallen.

How empty such a memorial must seem to the conservative. No meme to be touted, no talking points to push. Just a simple granite spire to the fallen, and ONLY the fallen!

One last time:

Iraqis had NOTHING to do with 911.
Nothing at all.
Zero.

What are you, Michelle, fuckin’ deaf?

?Now, you think it?s a coincidence that on September 11th, 2001, we were struck by terrorists an evil that has at its heart the disregard of innocent human life?? Keyes said in a May 7 speech in Provo, Utah. ?We who have for several decades killed not thousands but scores of millions of our own children, in disregard of the principle of innocent human life?I don?t think that?s a coincidence, I think that?s a shot across the bow. I think that?s a way of Providence telling us, ?I love you all; I?d like to give you a chance. Wake up! Would you please wake up?? ?

Monica- that’s fair enough. My objection was that Michelle was calling the museum’s directors “anti-American” and accused them of building a “blame American monument,” which is clearly not the case.

You’ll notice that when Burlingame made actual points, I responded non-snarkily. My problem with Michelle is that she just calls people names, and the only proper way to respond is by, well, making fun of her.

I respect your opinion, but mine differs. I’m fine with having a museum that represents all of the inhumanities this world has experienced, but I’d prefer that it be somewhere else – not part of the 9-11 memorial.

Again, it’s just my preference.
