We have only one day remaining to get the word out across this great land we love and call the United States of America.

On Wednesday, September 11, 2002, all Americans who will be driving a motor vehicle are being asked to do so with their HEADLIGHTS ON.

Contact the newspaper in your town or at your school. Call the television and radio stations in your area. Inform your elected representatives. Pass the word at your place of employment. Tell your family, friends and neighbors. Discuss this event in chatrooms and on message boards.

No explanation is needed as to why we are commemorating September 11 in this fashion. However, we hope to pay respect to the victims of that day, display our nation's solidarity, and, show support for our men and women in the Armed Forces.

"Let's roll" down the roads and highways with our headlights on this September 11!

God Bless America!

LET'S DO IT AMERICA!

Please pass the word.

I was simply planning on putting a new flag on my truck for the occasion. Perhaps I will also buy a flag of Saudi Arabia and turn it into a floormat while I'm at it.

As I said the last time this was posted, let us not.

Let us not make feckless gestures with feel-good vibes...while remaining comfortable and making no sacrifice.

Let us instead on 9/11/2002 do something meaningful.

- Let us feed all of the Guantanamo prisoners to the sharks.

- Let us saturate Mecca with the blood and entrails of swine.

- Let us scrub the repugnant mosque from the Dome of the Rock...down to the bare molecules of the original rock.

- Let us turn Baghdad into a glowing glass parking lot.

- Let us revoke the visas of all Islamic "guests" in our country.

- Let us put troops on the border--with ammunition.

- Let us stop issuing visas to citizens of terrorist states.

- Let us quit deluding ourselves that the Saudi Arabians and Pakistanis are our "friends".

- Let us assassinate 3,000 terrorists in the night.

- Let us likewise take 3,000 islamic civilians to hell, so they know direcely what 9/11 felt like.

This is just a start--but at least it is not a futile symbolic act more befitting Jimmy Carter than America.

Let's not.

Why not get on with life? Why not prosecute the war? Shallow, meaningless gestures mean nothing without victory.

Boy do you ever sound like my twin brother--we sing out of the same book!

With Lisa Beamer trying to (succeeding to?) copyright the phrase "Let's Roll," I think not. She's also running around at book signings (for a book which she didn't even write) pushing McSentimentality around. No way am I taking part in that.

And shallow meaningless gestures mean nothing even with victory, besides.
