Never Forget Sept 11, 2001
Bill Smith, ARRA Editor: Dear readers, Today this post is both our first and last post of the day. It will appear continually above all others. There are other posts today, but they will be below this one. Like many others, the events of Sept. 11, 2001 were both the first and last events remembered about the day. We watched with shock, grief, concern and even anger. Like many others, I could not even consider sleeping that evening. Also, like many my fellow comrades who had served as career military, we had hoped our countrymen would not experience the horrors of war. Yes - war! For those who's minds fail to grasp reality of the intent of the attack on 9-11, war was declared upon the U.S.A. by radical Islamists. Today, let us not forget the evil that continues to plague us and seeks to destroy us. We cannot appease or convert these radicals. We can only fight and destroy them before they destroy us. As we remember 9-11 with a candle, let us also not forget that we carry the candle of freedom for the rest of the world.Tags:9-11, Families, Freedom, IslamistTo share or post to your site, click on "Post Link".

Dr. Smith, Sir, I commend you on this effort, I am doing the same, I have a very heated post regarding Islam and hypocrisy but I am not going to denigrate the memory of 9-11 and it's victims today...
Simple, elegant, complete, that describes this post to a "T"...
There was some controversy a few weeks ago about how much "remembering" is necessary. Marking the anniversary of 9/11 is about so much more than remembering the dead, it is about remembering that we live in a different world today than we did on September 10, 2001. We have to not only remember the tragedy, but look forward to building America into an even greater nation.
I also blogged about 9/11 today. Where were you? I can't forget that day.
