President Bush has been flying under the radar since his presidency ended, so it is nice to see him participate in the dedication of the Flight 93 National Memorial dedication. I personally give President Bush credit for keeping America safe during one of the darkest moments in American history. I'll never forget him standing at the base of the twin towers, amongst the wreckage,http://www.blogger.com/img/blank.gif in front of the all those emergency personnel saying, "I can hear you! The rest of the world hears you! And the people who knocked these buildings down will hear all of us soon!". It still gives me chills.



This week we will be remembering and honoring those who lost their lives on September, 11th 2001. This will be the 10th anniversary of that tragic day. A day when our busy worlds stood still for a moment. A that we realized just how vulnerable our way of life is. A day when we all stood up a chanted U.S.A! U.S.A!
