4. Sad. They're actually going through with this.

Be prepared for it to turn into a 'Wooooooo free dem I-raqis' hoedown after all the Sept 11th propaganda.

This is so, so wrong.

President of the Pentagon Memorial Fund grateful for the publicity from Defense Department's planned Freedom Walk.

Jim Laychak has no problem linking commemoration of the Sept. 11 attack on the Pentagon with the Defense Department's "America Supports You Freedom Walk."

The Defense Department announced Aug. 9 that this year's commemoration of the terrorist attack would be the inaugural America Supports You Freedom Walk. Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld said the event would remind "participants of the sacrifices of this generation and of each previous generation that has so successfully defended our freedoms."

It was that link to the military's current role that led The Washington Post--one of the event's sponsors--to withdraw its support. Other media, including local ABC-TV affiliate WJLA and all-news radio station WTOP, continue to support the event.

According to the Post, questions were raised within the newspaper and by anti-war groups about the paper's objectivity. There were also concerns about the Bush administration linking the war in Iraq and the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks.
