Okay, who put the pod under Lamar Alexanders's bed???
He's giving a really well thought out address about 09-11-01 and put it into the perspective of American history. Now extolling the historical virtues of the country, the melting pot, what are the principles that unite us as a nation...

All his remarks are in the context of teaching history and civics in in public school.

Oh, the labotomy must have worn off by the end of his speaking time...

The Pledge Plus Three (The Pledge, plus a student talks for three minutes about what it mans to be american, every single morning) the idea is scary...

Still, that last bit of lunacy aside, he was surprisingly coherent and put the event into it's proper perspective...

"Is September 11th the worst thing that has ever happend to this nation? No. If you know American history you would know that..."
