No. Besides, if it were made a national holiday, we'll probably lose one of the traditional ones to maintain the schedule, like we did with MLK day. One civil rights leader (admittedly a very admirable man) is now worth two nameless presidents. I'm not willing to give up Memorial Day, Labor Day, or Thanksgiving, for Islamo-whackos Crashing into Buildings Day.

Your proposed name 'Islamo-whackos Crashing into Buildings Day' captures the very reason that Sept 11 should not be a Holiday. What exactly would we be celebrating? This is not a day to have a picnic it is a day to reflect, pray and move on to prove that we will not be disrupted or frightened but strengthened by adversity.
