September 11, 2001 Remembered
Today is the Eighth Anniversary of that sunny Tuesday morning when the Towers fell.
I’ve used this before.
Hat Tip to to Cap’n Bob (http://capnbob.us)

They pay me to provide words that help make sense of that which troubles the American soul. But in this moment of airless shock when hot tears sting disbelieving eyes, the only thing I can find to say, the only words that seem to fit, must be addressed to the unknown author of this suffering.
You monster. You beast. You unspeakable bastard. What lesson did you hope to teach us by your coward’s attack on our World Trade Center, our Pentagon, us?
What was it you hoped we would learn?
Whatever it was, please know that you failed.
