and there's the politics

from here:
The battle over the anniversary resolution reflected just how politically
charged the day has become.
Congress has passed a resolution every year. In
non-election years, the resolution has simply noted the valor of rescue workers
and extended sympathies to families.
But in election years — 2002, 2004 and
now 2006 — the Republican-controlled House has included language heralding
accomplishments in the war on terror. This time, the Republican version of the
resolution applauded the reauthorization of the legislation known as the USA
Patriot Act, as well as the tough immigration
bill passed in the House.

i MEAN. these things are not related. quit it.
