Pearl Harbor is a drink one can get in a Chinese restaraunt.
Stores have Memorial and Veterans Day sales.
Will we ever disrespect 9/11 like we have these other days?
Or I am I overreacting??

No, you're right, sadly. I think it will take more than 20 years, but it will happen. I had an acquaintance that got married on Pearl Harbor Day a few years back and when I lamented that she did that to someone else, that someone else said, "What's December 7th?" Sigh. At least when I told my 11-year-old niece that my son's nursery school starts on 9/11 she was surprised and said, "I didn't think any school would open on 9/11!" They'll be open but they're having remembrances. I had thought the same thing.

Does the republicans politically using 9/11 to there advantage the last 6 years with there terror alerts, using it as a false reason to attack Iraq, and scaring people into votes considered disrespecting the day? I say it is.

I've always wondered if there was ever anyone in a concentration camp during the holocaust, thinking to himself, "You know, some day we'll look back on this and laugh!"

Liberals already disrespect 9/11. I just asked a question about if they would wave the American Flag on 9/11 this year in honor of those who died, and one of the Liberals answered no, we should wave it for the Japanese! WTF!?

Disrespecting something historically significant by commercializing it is the American Way. Are you naive?

I suppose you didn't see the Republican National Convention in 2004, right?
Basically, to sum it up:
"9/11, 9/11, 9/11, 9/11, 9/11, 9/11, 9/11, 9/11, 9/11, 9/11, 9/11, 9/11, 9/11, 9/11, 9/11, 9/11, 9/11, 9/11, 9/11, 9/11, 9/11, 9/11, 9/11, 9/11, 9/11, 9/11, 9/11, 9/11, 9/11, 9/11, 9/11, 9/11, 9/11, 9/11, 9/11, 9/11, 9/11, 9/11, 9/11, 9/11, 9/11, 9/11, 9/11, 9/11, 9/11, 9/11, 9/11, 9/11, 9/11, and oh yes, 9/11."
How is that not disrespecting 9/11?

Unfortunately, in another twenty years, yes, we will. But it will be called the 'Patriot Sale'.

Liberals don't have sales, they have celebrations which most people call protests.
