Profiting off of the 10th anniversary of 9/11 - War Room - Salon.com: Let the 9/11 anniversary merchandising begin!
As the 10th anniversary of the terrorist attacks nears, a prominent Tea Party group is promoting a plan to sell commemorative 9/11 pins for $13-a-pop.
The Campaign to Defeat Barack Obama is a political action committee with the same Sacramento-based parent organization as the influential group Tea Party Express. It recently sent out a mass email encouraging supporters to help another conservative group "distribute 1 MILLION 9/11 Commemorative Pins to ensure that Americans never, ever forget those who lost their lives on 9/11 and what this country endured."
I see. So Americans are in danger of forgetting 9/11 - but these pins will save the day! Yay!
