Clap louder. Louder, I said.

The Pentagon would hold a massive march and country music concert to mark the fourth anniversary of the September 11 terrorist attacks, US Defence Secretary Donald Rumsfeld said in an announcement tucked into an Iraq war briefing today.

"This year the Department of Defence will initiate an America Supports Your Freedom Walk," Rumsfeld said, adding that the march would remind people of "the sacrifices of this generation and of each previous generation".

The march will start at the Pentagon, where nearly 200 people died on September 11, 2001, and end at the National Mall with a show by country star Clint Black.

I think the fourth anniversary is when you give sweetheart deals to Halliburton, tax breaks to Big Oil, and permanent tax cuts for the wealthiest Americans. Because if we don't, the terrorists win. Via BGW.
