Never Forget ping...
It is the 11th anniversary of September 11, 2001, 6 hours from the moments that changed the world. It will once again be a sunny day and will be the second Tuesday of September. Eleven years ago, it was primary day in New York and many people were saved because they decided to vote that morning. That Primary Day was taken from us. Today should be Primary Day, but will not be. Even as we try to ignore the ideology of the people who attacked us, and revise history for the children, we Bin Laden a posthumous victory by once again deferring our elections.
The governor and legislature have it backwards. We should honor those who perished by voting and reminding the world that we are still New Yorkers. We should honor the sacrifices and tragedies by facing the war head on and not forgetting or looking away. We owe that to the noble dead and to our children, who will also fight this conflict.
