It’s No Longer the “Freedom Tower”…Really.

By: Mr_Ed (Diary)  |  March 29th, 2009 at 11:36 AM  | 

RESIZE: AAA

The Port Authority of New York announced this week they are changing the name of the “Freedom Tower” to “One World Trade Center.”  Apparently they believe the name was hurting marketing efforts to fully lease the building.

The terrorists have won.

If the Port Authority of New York…which lost so many of its own police officers in 9/11…can’t stand up for principle and honor, who can?

What’s next?  Will they change the name of the Statue of Liberty to “The Statism Liberation Memorial”?

Will the “Star Spangled Banner’s” opening line change from “Oh, say can you see…” to “Oh, CCCP”?

Will “RedState”  become, well, uh, “RedState”?

Where is you anger, comrades?

    I have to wonder how those donors would feel about funding a “One World Trade Center” instead…?

    yield this garbage…. Any chance of finding out who some of the companies are that have committed to the Tower while it was to be named “Freedom Tower?” I would like to contact some of them and let them know that since the name has changed that they should consider looking at one of the other buildings around. Where is TRUMP on this?!?!? That worthless clown was, at least at one point, one of the forces behind the “Freedom Tower” fight for design/construction.

    to see the Diary beefed up with some links to the Freedom Tower Project and if you have dug up any contacts for us to complain to! Just sayin’ (guess, I’m asking, so I can be lazy and not look them up myself) ;-)
