"How did it come to pass that an opposition's measure of a president's foreign policy was all or nothing, success or "failure"? The answer is that the political absolutism now normal in Washington arrived at the moment--Nov. 7, 2000--that our politics subordinated even a war against terror to seizing the office of the presidency." - Daniel Henninger - WSJ 11/18/05

***see update***???????????? The update says the server is swamped with people clamoring to sign up!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I tried to get there for the sake of seeing what type of response Michelle's post has gotten and you just can't get in!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Let's hope this is when the fewer than 1,000 people are spoken for.

Wanted: Bloggers to remember 9/11 victims

***see update***

Katie Favazza sends word of a massive blogger initiative to memorialize those murdered on 9/11.

DC Roe explains:

On September 11, 2006, 2,996 volunteer bloggers will join together for a tribute to the victims of 9/11. Each person will pay tribute to a single victim.

I just registered and will be paying tribute to Giovanna Porras, age 24, killed at the WTC. 680 more bloggers are needed.

Sign up here.

Update: Tom, the tech guy for the blogger memorial project, e-mails that the site has now been swamped and you may get a slow response time. Be patient or try again if you can't register right away. Thank you
