I believe redefining 9/11 insults the memory of the first brave Americans to die in our war with the ignorant Islamo-fascists who would enslave us. Why should we reject the slavery of Sharia Law al Qaeda and other Islamic terrorist groups would impose on us only to allow ourselves to be pimped-off by a party and a president who will do anything and say anything to promote his own social engineering goals. One of these goals is tripling the size of AmeriCorps in the next eight years. The administration's hi-jacking of this solemn day of mourning and relection is self-serving, manipulative and disgraceful.
The President's call to summer service launches United We Serve, a sustained effort to expand the size and impact of volunteer efforts in addressing tough challenges facing the nation. The United We Serve initiative kicks off on June 22, and runs for 81 days through a new National Day of Service and Remembrance on September 11.
Understanding his motive to tear down the existing framework we see that Obama slipped through a bill that turns the nation’s remembrance of September 11th into a perverse celebration of Socialism.
Instead of solemn remembrance for the fallen dead, Comrade Obama named September 11th a “National Day of Service,” which means celebrating your service to government.
AmeriCorps is little more than inept social work tinged with messianic delusions. It appears special only because it is "politically blessed" by politicians who seem to believe that work funded by taxation is more meaningful than work paid for voluntarily.

As someone who lost loved ones on 9/11 - I urge everyone to donate their time volunteering if they can, as people seem to have forgotten that's what we all did in the days following 9/11.
MyGoodDeed is an organization run by family members of the 9/11 victims and this is a great success, as they've been attempting to get a day of service on 9/11 in remembrance for quite some time now:
Bringing the country together to help rather than hate is a far better way to remember everyone who died on that day... and there are still thousands of people here in NY suffering from health problems related to being a first responder that could use your help.
STOP trying to politicize this day of remembrance and volunteerism to further your anti-Obama agenda and stop and HELP. Instead of using this to rail against Muslims, stop and HELP your fellow Americans who need it.

This day of service/remembrance is something that has been proposed by 9/11 families and 9/11 groups since 2003.
There is nothing wrong with doing these things and they should be ongoing before and after 9-11. But to change the entire thing is going a bit far, what's next, no more veterans day or memorial day either?
