I suppose something should be said. The war party is still trying to play it for all they can. I see they are still calling it "Patriot Day" - not sure why. Patriots' Day - that's a holiday - and a holiday celebrating, well - patriotism - starting a war to run the bastards out! close enough! 9/11 is more like innocent victim day. Not sure what patriotism has to do with it.
It has long since become hard to say anything about the day. The government used it as a pretext to fuck the country up good, and do a pretty good job on the rest of the world. Bin Laden is still on the loose! Iraq is still fucked up! we're still grinding away there, and no sign of stopping soon! Great. The only possible comfort is that the GOP has so disgraced itself in the last 6 years that they will, eventually, be put out to pasture for a good long time - at least until some few of them start acting like adults again. Hell, we might get universal health care out of it!
Enough. I got a couple more WC Fields films from Netflix, so I'm off.
