I wonder if we will ever get to the point that the cable news corporations don’t feel the need to replay the events of 9/11 every year on the anniversary of those attacks. It’s like a national holiday for cable news cameramen and hosts and producers. I wonder if they schedule time off with their kids.
Whatever we gain in the “never forget” category, we aren’t having a debate about the president’s speech. I think, this year, this footage is basically little better than pro-government propaganda.
And if I can admit a little personal weakness, reliving 9/11 is a trigger for post-traumatic stress. The 9/11 and anthrax attacks happened to my community and we lost people. I am not going to forget and being forced to experience it all over again is not a good feeling.
