What the real tragedy has been the last 5 years.
Advertisements [?]
What happened on 9/11 was bad, but we've been through bad times before. Despite all the ribbons saying "we will never forget", forgetting is part of the healing process. We still remember Pearl Harbor, but it's not a searing pain today as it was in 1942. Eventually, we should have been able to absorb 9/11 and move on.

The real wound that's tearing at our guts is George Bush's attack on all that America has ever stood for. He's dragged us into starting a war that we can't end, making us responsible for thousands of deaths. He's destroying our Constitution and building secret prisons and torture chambers. He's also busy destroying our faith in the electoral system which is a foundation of our democracy. We have to be there Tuesday to start taking the country back.
