Another exception to the rule.
Aug. 29th, 2005 02:19 pmWow, religion one day, politics the next.
Ordinarily I don't discuss politics in my lj. It tends to be counter-productive, because of the diversity of my friends. But in this one case I am going to make an exception, because this needs to be spread around as far as it possibly can, and it's something that anybody with any humanity, whatever their political alignment, should agree with.
I won't go into the details, I'll link to you a site that does a better job of explaining it than I can, but in short, the plans have been released, and the Ground Zero memorial where the Twin Towers stood is currently slated to be a heap of political propaganda, rather than a non-political tribute to the people who died there. And that's a travesty! Those deaths make that sacred ground, and nobody should be sermonizing for Conservatives OR for Liberals there!

If you find you agree with what this site has to say, I encourage you to sign their petition, and to write somebody in congress about it. I never write my congressman, but I am writing a letter right now, because something has to be done about this!
