INAPPROPRIATE
So it's almost September 11th 2006. Yes 2006 not 2001. So I saw something that made me get out the soap box.
The phrase "lest we forget" used in reference to sept. 11. That phrase is to be used in reference to those who have lost their lives in times of war and the day of remembrance is the 11th of November. NOT AS AN AMERICA PROPGANDA TOOL!
Yes many people were hurt/killed in 2001 but "lest we forget" is for one time only.
I am not saying that sept.. 11 wasn't a tragedy it was but morn it appropriately not as the propaganda that the media and supposed "patriots" make it out to be.
Morn butdo not make spectical. It is never the right choice.
RESEPECT the veterens and remember those who have served the county but don't take away fromthe importance of their day.
that is all
i am gone

I agree with you Joel! If they are using 'lest us forget' now how long will it be until the poppy's start getting sold now and not just then.
I never thought about it, but I do agree with you. That phrase was to be used to remember the fallen soldiers who fought for our freedom, and by using it for Sept. 11 (tragic though it was) is taking away from them, and really, the phrase looses it's meaning and we end up doing exactly the opposite of what that phrase says to do.
