Photos of the unhinged in NYC yesterday from the intrepid El Marco. This one sums it up:

James Joyner waded through the blame-Bush swamps yesterday.

Reader Peege writes about a non-9/11 9/11 musical celebration in Atlanta, which included:

- “From a Distance,” which features the line “From a distance you look like my friend / even though we are at war./ From a distance I just cannot comprehend /what all this fighting is for.”
- “Turn! Turn! Turn!” – a bizarre choice, since it mentions “A time to die” and “A time to kill” in it. The singer ad-libbed at the end, singing “It’s not too late for peace” several times.
- “Misty” ??? Can’t explain this choice, except they had a jazz band and wanted to use them.

Throughout the ceremony, the mc’s said things such as “We respond with peace” and “We are all different, but not so different that we can’t all get along.”

No mention of the 19 hijackers. No mention of the World Trade Center – just general statements addressing the lives lost on 9/11.

I’d give a more detailed report, but I walked out when a lady started singing “Let There Be Peace on Earth.”

But as I’ve said before, no place can top the Pacific Northwest. Byron Dazey headed over to the “healing drumming circle” ceremony in Seattle that I mentioned last week. Check out all his photos. Here’s a sample:
