that there will be fewer commemorative specials / publications relating to September 11 aside from the bushcrap filled movies showing Bush as acting "firm,decisive and "Presidential"" on that day of course.

So far had only found one commemorative magazine that mentioned Sept 11. in the context of the Afghan and Iraq wars, I pooh you not.

On edit I wondered how many are actually glad the whole Sept 11 commemoration deal was lower key this year, I for one am, in a way.

the anniversary marking to be low key for "as if" we will ever "fuhhhhhhhhhhhhhhgggggggggggeeeeeeeeeeeeettttttttttttt about" Sept 11 as New Yorkers say.

As far as the WTC 911 transcripts go, never mind being a family member of one of those people,I wonder if anyone could imagine being a FRIEND of one of the people who didn't make it out of the WTC and reading what was likely that person's final words. Ai aye ayie!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

On edit what I meant about that first part is that I bet everyone could no doubt NEVER FORGET where they were when IT happened.

hee hee hee all we would have to do is sit back and watch the THOUSANDS (hopefully) of PEEVED OFF NEW YORKERS and WORLD TRADE CENTER SURVIVORS protest the HELL out of Bush (that is if they would ever get their chance to do so) and ENJOY THE FUN. :D :D

Hee hee hee maybe they'll even get THEIR REVENGE for all that by VOTING DEMOCRATIC en masse.

5. GOP Gambles on New York Convention

There are all kinds of places to hold a nominating convention, from Los Angeles, Seattle, or Miami to Denver, New Orleans or Chicago. It's obvious why the Republicans chose New York - to exploit the memory of September 11th.

It's really inappropriate, and it's quite possible they won't get away with it. They are putting at risk their whole response to the events of that day. New Yorkers will be out protesting by the tens of thousands, making this very point.

6. But it does kind of make anyone feel sorry for the survivors

in a way for they would ultimately have to put up with the Retchpubs "milking Sept 11 for all it's worth."

Here's hoping NY'ers would be peeved off by the convention being held there for that purpose and Torontonians would wonder what their officials were thinking when they let those "bushcrap" filled movies be filmed there.

7. Maybe we could pump in

some really bad, stinky air into the convention center. That way they can really commemorate 9-11, by filling their lungs with the same poisons that they told all the NYers were no problem. I'm sure if that's true, then they won't mind being exposed to it for just a few days.
