There are so many to pick from, but my favorite is Tim Grieve’s over at Salon. Bush to Errant Flock: 9/11, 9/11, 9/11.
George W. Bush referred to the attacks of Sept. 11th six times in his speech on Iraq Tuesday night. Weapons of mass destruction? He didn’t mention them once.
That just about sums it up. I mean, 9/11 has become so convenient these days that even directors use it to hawk their latest film.
