This day and the lives lost will be remembered always, and the rescue workers and samaritans, will always be honored. While we have a mainstream media who will give the entire day re-living, and re-hashing the horror our country went through, and while some of it heartfelt, some will be considered exploitation.
I remember exactly where I was that morning. I was at home, when I recieved a call from my friend George, "Kyle, are you up? Turn on the tv. A plane also just hit the Pentagon, have you heard from Derek?" The concern we both shared was the lives of our fellow Americans and our good friend Derek who was working at a building close to the Pentagon. Thank God he was ok, but many others were not. We all experienced our own grievances that day, we wept for the lives lost and those left childless or widowed, or alone.
Last night, I spent the evening as normally do. Walk the dog, have dinner, and watch Keith Olbermann with a few odds and ends in there. Keith's Special Comment was spot on. He discussed the "trademarking" of 9/11. It is a travesty that this has occurred. Our two party political system have sparred over the "ownership" of the day we all share in our history. The Post 9/11 world is full of liars, truthers, hypocrites, opportunists, and conspiracy theorists. While I do not subscribe to the "inside job" crowd, nor do I wish to blindly follow the story we were given. I don't really know what did and what did not take place that awful day, although I am more interested in what our Government didn't do. I do, however, strongly hold the unity we felt , as Americans on 9/11. The images we will see on our televisions today will open old wounds, again. As Americans, I find it absurd that we have accepted what has happened since 9/11. The Republican National Convention in St. Paul,Mn. last week displayed, without shame, images of the WTC with the threat of fear, and blatant references to countries not involved. I find it absurd that on 9/11, we all had the good sense to recognize the strong sense of urgency to be "American" first, but threw it out the window come an election season. I find it absurd that for political gain, we have allowed the laws that have made this country better than any be abandoned for the sake of self proclaimed "patriotism". On this day, it is with heartfelt courage, that we, yes we, stand with the same unity we once did, and never be afraid to ask questions, but be afraid to give up liberties that have defined us since our Founding Fathers laid them out for us. On this day, remember the dead, and open your heart to the families immediately affected. I suggest, at some point today, take a moment of silence, and then remind yourself, this day belongs to America.
