Eight years after the attacks of September 11, and so far, there are only a few articles / blogs on the anniversary of the worst attack on American soil.
Since then, we have been committed by two Presidents to two ongoing military operations that have no end in sight. More importantly, this conflict has been a contributing cause to the increase of suicides of our men and women who serve our country in uniform.
The simple fact that the news / political writers, editors and publishers of this country would rather use its collective energy to investigate a Congressman from South Carolina who was invisible before he went off on Obama Wednesday shows how far we have fallen as a profession.
Get a grip! Focus on reality instead of the shadows. We should spend at least one day to reflect and remember on what connects us as Americans… seems like this would be a good day to do so.
