9/11 after 10…Part I

leave a comment »

I’ll be surfing about to find the best,  most interesting commentary, and will post as I find and digest them.

These are the  most iconic photographs  of that awful day,   and a decade of  9/11 magazine covers  (h/t Jonah Goldberg).   Peggy Noonan says we haven’t gotten over it  and shouldn’t,  which is quite different from the day of service His Oneness has turned the event into.  Read Matthew Vadum’s  take on how  the remembrance has been perverted,  and do click on the link near the end for Pamela Geller’s piece.

You can read AFL-CIO President Richard  Trumpka’s nasty  call for action,  or just Aaron Goldstein’s  post on it.

If you aren’t teaching your children about 9/11,   start!   The educrats are  teaching  them,  but you won’t recognize the event.   Quin Hillyer points us to a pair of sterling columns:  one by Rich Lowry  on real heroes,   another by Charles Krauthammer brusquely dismissing  the popular notion that we over-reacted to the attack.   While you’re at it,  read Hillyer’s  old piece  as well  —  it has held up nicely.

Andy McCarthy has a good post up on the here and now aspect of 9/11,  with good links to other pieces,  and National Review Online has a  remembrance symposium.    Watch Gov.  Chris Christie  sum it up  perfectly with his customary truthful bluntness.
