I got choked up at a lot of the sights we visited on my trip. Sometimes it was sadness (Vietnam wall), many times it was pride and gratefulness at places like Lexington and Concord and Mt. Vernon. The place that did it most to me was the 9-11 memorial. I had two thoughts as I left the site. 1) George Washington would be proud of how we responded that day, especially the passengers on Flight 93. 2) That memorial is the best F.U. we ever could have gave to Bin Laden and Al Qaeda. Knock down our buildings that you think are symbols of our hedonism and oppression? Well replace them with a beautiful monument that that blends nature into our national resolve, and make sure future generations never forget.
