9/11 Widows

Lately all I’ve seen and heard of the 9/11 widows is the media-whoring money-grubbing nonsense that goes on. Quite frankly it’s pretty hard to feel sorry for their loss. I should, but using their loved one’s gravestone as a soap box really doesn’t make it easy.

Today I read this over at Michelle Malkin’s site. There are probably many people like this who go about quietly in their lives and don’t want to generate a bunch of noise. Regardless, I felt really sad for this woman after reading this.
