Remember to Display your United States Flag at Half-Staff on Thursday September 11th, 2014 in Honor of Patriot Day.



Thursday, September 11, 2014 marks the 13-year anniversary of the 9/11 terrorist attacks on the World Trade Center in New York City, the Pentagon, and United Airlines Flight 93 which crashed in suburban Pennsylvania. Patriot Day serves as a remembrance of the lives lost on that September morning.



On Patriot Day, the President directs that the American flag be flown at half-staff at individual American homes,
at the White House, and on all U.S. government buildings and establishments, home and abroad. The President also asks Americans to observe a moment of silence beginning at 8:46 AM Eastern time, the time the first plane struck the North Tower of the World Trade Center that morning.


3-2-1 GO!!!
 
As one of the chief Obama detractors here, I see nothing wrong, and everything right, with this request. Not going to fault the guy when he doesn't deserve it - there's a boatload of other faults to work with...

I am a little touchy about the word "Direct" as the only Direct he legally can give is government buildings...he uses that word a little too freely....
 
IMO election year politics, out of character, but on the other hand a good thing to do.
