Gorgeous George vs. HitchArchitect offers to alter Flight 93 memorial to appease critics
The Flight 93 memorial design as a crescent (like the symbol of Islam, in memorial to victims of Islamofascism) was earlier noted by the Chief here. Agreeing with thos who declared that this design would be in the same spirit as planting flowers in a swastika pattern as a memorial at Auschwitz, the Chief strongly disliked this design.
It took approx. two and a half days for the National Park Service and the architects to recognize that they were spitting into the wind on this one, and announce that the design would be changed.
The architect of the memorial to a plane downed in western Pennsylvania on Sept. 11, 2001, said Wednesday he would work to satisfy critics who complained that it honors terrorists with its crescent-shaped design.At least they weren't as oblivious to the concerns about the design as those pushing the WTC memorial have been. Progress of a sort.

One simple thing, really: Joe-Joe Biden loves him some TV camera time. And that's understated, perhaps. Biden, Leahy, and Chuck Schumer. Does it get any better than that? I caught some of the hearing off and on yesterday, and have...Bread and Circuses
Ann Althouse has a funny and informative review of yesterday's Roberts hearings. Hat tip to Instapundit. Like him, I think this line is the funniest and pretty much sums up the left's jurisprudence: Or is one of Congress's enumerated powers...Roberts v. Schumer
This is priceless. From yesterday's Senate Judiciary Committee Hearing.SCHUMER: Let me just say, sir, in all due respect -- and I respect your intelligence and your career and your family -- this process is getting a little more absurd the...The self-loathing of America
From Rush Limbaugh: You see, most of the hate-America crowd first is a bunch of socialist, and they look at socialism as well intentioned. Socialism is an equal opportunity promise. It's an equal opportunity opportunity if you will. Capitalism, of...
