September 11th

A lot of people have even more to say about September 11th. I just have three things.

I think it's important to remember because thousands of people died, and keeping them in mind will motivate us to prevent it from happening again.

Remember the outpouring of support for, well, everything? All of the sudden, everyone was proud to be an American, as the song goes. That was an amazing period of national unity, probably the most pronounced since WWII.

And last but certainly not least, whether you're for or against the wars we're fighting for whatever wise or misguided reasons, make no mistake that there are men and women out fighting every day, making the greatest sacrifice of all so that we can be here. It might be nice to say thanks the next time you see one.
