The real lessons of 9-11 - Aravosis nails it.
* The Constitution only applies when the going gets easy.
* War is the answer, even when you forget the question.
* The truth is for sissies.
* America has never faced an enemy as dangerous and as intent on killing us as (King George, the Civil War, World War I, the Germans, the Japanese, a nuclear Soviet Union) Al Qaeda.
* The real September 11 story was badly in need of editing.
* Just because they say it makes it so.
* We have always been at war with Oceania.
* A fool is born every election day.
* Due process is for the innocent.
* Patriotism means never having to say you're sorry.
* It's all Sandy Berger's fault.

3. One edit:
Due process is for the people we say are innocent.

6. * Politicizing 9/11 is despicable, unless you're a Republican.
As a corrolary, Bush inviting only Republicans to a 9/11 memorial is not politicizing 9/11. But if you point this out, then you ARE politicizing 9/11, and you must hate America.
