No Freedom Museum at WTC site

Good news. From the AP

Bowing to pressure from furious Sept. 11 families, Gov. George Pataki on Wednesday removed a proposed freedom museum from the space reserved for it at ground zero, saying the project had aroused ''too much opposition, too much controversy.

There may be a place for a Freedom museum, but not at Ground Zero where people were not killed struggling for freedom, but senselessly by Islamic fascist terrorists. The best use of the speech is a solemn memorial period.

To all those at Take Back the Memorial, thank you. To Debra Burlingame, you have our gratitude, again.
