Tell the a-hole making this (r@ppy monument to either make a warmonger one and get rid of the fooking crescent or go home.

Politely of course, some 9/11 families still don't know what the fuss is about.

And he can take his d@mn blocks and shove it. We don't glorify terrorists here in the U S of A.

Ok liberals and Demons do but they are stupid, treasonous, and evil and don't count as Americans.

The crescent is still there. Tancredo is a fool if he thinks we're going to fall for this nonsense.

Reality check!! Tancredo had nothing to do with the Flight 93 Memorial design. He was appalled when he saw the original crescent and tried to get the architect to change it. As you can see by the Islamofacist shrine link, the architect pulled a fast one in his "redesign".

Direct your comments to the architect and the National Park Service. They are the appropriate contacts.

Does Tancredo support the "re-design"?

If they put extra blocks for the creepy damned terrorists, all read blooded Americans should make it their duty to drive their trucks their with chains and drag 4 of those things off. Do it everytime they replace them.

I trust my fellow FReepers to maintain decorum in writing to Mr. Murdoch, and suggesting a less, ah, treasonous design.

Who knows -- probably a waste of time, but it might do some good to let him know what folks think of this.

I haven't heard his comments, if any, on the redesign.

However, since it includes 44 stones for the 44 who died, INCLUDING THE %^*#(#$*$ MURDERERS, I will bet you that he would not support the redesign either.

Tancredo is not the type of politician who would overlook that sort of disrespect to the victims. I believe he is the only Congressional Representative who took the time to do something about the Memorial travesty in the first place.

checked the by-line. Yup, AP. Why am I *not* surprised? Contrary to what the AP implies, I can assure you that the complaints from those living in the area, along with at least some of the flight 93 families were quick, loud, and long as soon as the "design" was unveiled locally. ;)

AP makes it sound like Tancredo was the *only* critic and single-handedly got the design changed, which is far from the truth. :(

Red Maples in a crescent? Calling all Freepers with chainsaws!

Oh please, it was not changed because Tancredo did his usual attention getting b*tch fest.

I should be surprised that Tancredo is claiming all the credit but alas, I'm not. He is such a megalomaniac he will claim credit for anything while at the same time doing his best to stonewall important issues like immigration reform.

Tancredo cares about one thing and that is getting as much attention for himself as possible.

The analysis linked to in post 6 above shows beyond reasonable doubt that this is not just any crescent, but an explicitly Islamic crescent.

But even if it were just a coincidental choice of shape, it shows monumentally bad judgement (pun intended).

Tancredo is the media's third favorite "Republican" behind John McLame and Pat Buchanan. They can always count on him to bash Bush or other Republicans if it will get him attention so they love to stroke his overinflated ego.
