Everyone should read what Keith Olbermann said tonight as item #1 on his countdown regarding the state of the nation 5 years after 9/11.
He goes from how shameful it is that Ground Zero is still a hole in the ground with no memorial, into the terrible beauty of unity in the days following, then slams into how the president took advantage at a time when even his detractors put their animosity and doubt aside and supported him, then wraps it up with a reference to the brilliant Twilight Zone episode “The Monsters Are Due on Maple Street,”
The text doesn’t do it justice because it lacks the cold fire flaring in his eyes as he spoke and spit these words.

This was very well stated, and the Twilight Zone reference is brilliant. That’s one of my favorite episodes because it’s also one of the most frighteningly real.
