We owe Debra Burlingame a tremendous debt
Contrast the focus and spirit of Debra Burlingame with the sniveling of Donald Sutherland.
Ms. Burlingame exposed the effort of the left wing to turn a proposed 9/11 memorial at the WTC into yet another “hate America” project.
Governor Pataki ended the left wing scheme the other day by cancelling the project. Heck, even Hillary came out against the project, which shows you just how anti-American and hateful it truly was.
“Ms. Burlingame's face, never inscrutable, reflects afresh some of the fury she must have felt at the time. Composure is only a part of her arsenal. "Anger can be very, very productive, as long as it's focused and you don't lose your mind. After the London bombings [in July], someone asked me, 'Have we become complacent? Do you miss 9/11, when people had more unity?' And I say, 'No, no, no. What I miss is the anger. And the clarity. That's what I miss... "”
Ms. Burlingame, we too miss the anger over 9/11. The left wing has certainly forgotten about it, and I think a great deal of the country has as well. Thank you for helping us remember how this war began on 9/11 and for blocking left wing attempts to make us feel guilty about our history.
