Six Years On: What Hath September 11th Wrought?
Never Forget.
But also never forget this:"After six years, America's post-9/11 discourse has not changed much. Politicians and journalists still present most homeland security debates as tradeoffs between security and liberty. But the Bush Administration's most severe security measures since 9/11 are actually premised on radically different tradeoff: pursuing security by sacrificing the rule of law itself."
Let us heal, as a Nation, as United States -- as a United People.
But never let your individual liberties be eroded in the process of defending ourselves from terrorism. Never.
The United States Constitution is a living document, and should not be so easily disenfranchised -- as the current administration is attempting to accomplish in it's efforts to establish an "Unitary Executive" power structure.
Take back our government -- an ideal that is worth your efforts. Let us realize a "...government of the people, by the people, for the people..." and let us hope it shall not perish from this earth.
"A house divided against itself cannot stand."
