5 Years On--- It's TIME To Rebuild
2006-09-11
Posted by:mcsegeek1

#8  Tony (UK) the one moment this morning, as I dressed to go to work of course, with the television on, that made me stop, and finally the tears came, was when VPres Cheney and his wife walked out of the White House, and he had Margaret Thrasher on his arm. She, so steadily in heels on that grass, arm solidly in Cheney's but not gripping, walking purposing forward, seeing her determination and the hurt in her eyes and her walk. A walk that is a salute to all of American.

And it is appreciated. A great friend she has been to us, and continues to be.

#7  Rebuild the towers identically using modern technology. Let them stand as a defiant capitalist thumb-in-the-eye to terrorism.

Obviously the right thing to do.
and in the Plaza with the dented sculpture a medium sized wall-type memorial in between.

#6  Two towers; taller, mightier, more beautiful. Fuck those swine that want an anti-American 'memorial' built; they have no right to ask such a thing and certainly no right to impose this abomination on others.

#5   I want towers, not a memorial.

I agree completely, Iblis. Rebuild the towers identically using modern technology. Let them stand as a defiant capitalist thumb-in-the-eye to terrorism. I cannot imagine a better tribute to all of the people who perished five years ago. Had I been among them, this would have been my definite wish.

If people refuse to move in out of fear, relocate the UN there.

#3  The idiots who wanted to install a memorial to all the bad things the US has done to the world are a major cause for the holdup. Like mildew, they keep coming back and have to be disinfected.

#2  Sort of. I want towers, not a memorial.

#1  Is anybody else infuriated that Pataki, Bloomberg, Corzine, the Port Authority and the power that be are dishonoring the memory of the lost by not rebuilding now? Enough is enough.
