Dear BenGleck, I did not get the chance to read your original post so I can't comment on it's content. I do agree with you that you have the right to post your opinion, no matter how contrary it may be to my opinion, as long as it is not vile or obscene. That being said...I believe the change of the name from Freedom Tower to One World Trade Center dishonors the memory of all our brothers and sisters who died in those towers that terrible day. The purpose of this site is to embrace the sense of outrage, anger and unity of purpose so many of us felt on 9/11. We are allowing the core principles of our Country be eroded in the name of political correctness. This isn't about Democrat or Republican, Conservative or Liberal, this is about our countries survival. For the first time in my life, I truly fear for the survival of the United States of America. I believe if we continue down this path of societal entitlement, socialism and political correctness, our country as we know it will cease to be. We can't let this happen. Right or wrong, warts and all, the United States of America is still the shining city envisioned by President Reagan. Without the United States, the world is destined for a dark period of history. Understand, there is nobody out there to pick up the gauntlet if we lose our way. It's us or it's chaos. We have a responsibility to the world to continue as that shining city. When the world criticizes us, we need to be staunch in our beliefs. When doubters suggest we should embrace European principles remember, it was those principles that prompted our founding fathers to create a new nation founded in personal liberty and equal rights.

Amen.

Actually, you didn't do too bad till the "trailer-trash" comment. Your personal attacks are meant' to intimidate people into silence. Sorry, not going to happen this time. What is happening in this country is a violation of the core principles of it's founding. This fight is for our children's future. We cannot allow citizens, such as yourself, who have lost their way divert us. I respect your right to believe what you want.

Amen to Americanwarrior. If you have not already done so, I strongly urge each and every one of you to read "The 5000 Year Leap". It is shocking when you realize to the degree our current government has gone astray of the principles, values and vision of our founding fathers.
