I do support that WWII memorial on the mall. My Dad fis a combat vet from the Pcific, my uncle died in a B-17 over Germany.

Let's make sure it doesn't take as long for these heroes.

"Then counquer we must,
when our cause it is just,
and this be our motto,
"In God is our trust."
And the star-spangled banner in triumph shall wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave!"
Sign & Bump--Let's Roll, America!

A few of us have voted to do something.
They're going to kill us anyway, so we might as well die fighting."

To: Jeff Head, FReepers Please Sign the Petition to Establish a Nat'l Monument for Flight 93

LET'S ROLL!

"These are the times that try men's souls.
The summer soldier and sunshine patriot will,
in this crisis, shrink from the service of his country;
but he that stands it now,
deserves the love and thanks of man and woman.
Tyranny, like hell, is not easily conquered;
yet we have this consolation with us,
that the harder the conflict,
the more glorious the triumph."

Written by Private Thomas Paine while sitting at a campfire with his fellow soldiers using a battle drum as his desk. He called it The American Crisis in which he hoped to bolster the declining spirit of the Continental Army after suffering a disasterous defeat in New York and had to retreat into New Jersey. On Christmas Eve, 1776, General George Washington oredered Paine's words to be read out loud to the soldiers.

After reading the pamphlet, the American troops crossed the Delaware and launched a surprise attack on the Hessian soldiers at Trenton.

This victory clearly showed that Americans will not give up their liberty without a fight. And so too, did the brave passengers of Flight 93.

Linda Gronlund--Flight 93 Passenger

You know, I had never noticed it before, but as I reread that statement, I was struck with a sense of true American pride. How many people in other countries would even think to VOTE to do something -- especially at a time of extreme crisis?

These were true Americans to the end. People of a tyrant nation would NEVER think to vote about anything.

Tears of absolute pride are welling up again -- just when I thought I didn't have any tears left...

GOD bless America! GOD bless her people!

I disagree totally with this petition. We will honor these victims, but not on that spot. If we don't rebuild on this site, then the terrorists will have succeeded in crippling our economy.

You are misreading this petition entirely. Read the petition. It is not about the WTC site, it is about the crash site of United Flight 93 in a Pennsylvania field ... the one that the passengers tried to retake the plane.

Regards.
