TV was full of 9/11 remembrances all day yesterday. This lasted up and into the NewsHour with Jim Lehrer. They had some pundit on, talking about 9/11 and he said something like "It's too bad that 9/11 became so political."
Hmm. Unprovoked attack in peacetime with higher casualties than Pearl Harbor. And this guy thinks it shouldn't affect the politics of the United States? Pearl Harbor got us into WWII and ended with nuking the enemy. By those standards, the American response to 9/11 was quite restrained and civilized.
