I always wonder how they get people to pay $100 to attend these events, then again th Rev Terry Jones in Florida has 50 followers, the Rev Jim Jones had 100's. I have to believe our education system has failed us.

Event promoter Christopher Cox says the 9/11 date is a coincidence. Cox originally eyed Sept. 4, but
didn’t want to compete with the Alaska State Fair.

How about 9/18 you friggin' idiot?

Those dirty bastards! How dare they!

Some body better arrest Toby Keith and tell him not to write any more pro-military or 9/11 related songs. Outrageous!

When will the evil right wing war profiteering end??!!!

Yes its the mother of all coincidences but now it has become the entire focus. wasn't August 28 or September 18 or open?

"Sarah Palin and Glenn Beck are appearing together in Anchorage, Alaska Saturday to mark the anniversary of the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks"

An entertainer with "talent" is different than someone who just uses 9/11 as the entire focus for their own personal gain. I do beleive most of Keith's earning go to charity by the way. I would compare this more to Rudy Giuliani who asked his donors to send in $9.11 to help his campaign not to mention his public speaking circuits to cash for his own gain.

Who cares what day they picked? There are a lot of events happening that day dealing with 9/11, not dealing with 9/11, etc. So what? You pick THIS event to take issue with. Solely because who is speaking. Just like you did with the Honor Rally. You care less about the message, more about the person(s) there.

Get Over It! This does NOT affect you nor your brothers and sisters of hate/jealousy. They are charging, so what? Not one person is being forced to spend money on this. Nothing happening at this event, will hurt the essence, remembrance of 9/11. It adds to it if anything.

I said it many times, but Ill say it again. Perhaps it will sink in someday. I wish you and others would spend as much time looking into the crooks in Washington who actually run this country, as you do being obsessed with a talk radio/tv host. Beck doesnt affect you. Palin isnt affecting you. You dont see a dozen new (insert big mouth liberal host here) threads here everyday. And trust me, we could post at least a few new worthy threads dealing with what the liberal talkers say/do, every day if we truly wanted to. The fact is, most of us realize they are just far left hateful morons with no audience that dont affect us. We also realize the media doesnt take them to task and post every single thing they say that is "controversial" like they do the likes of Beck and Limbaugh.
