excerpt: PITTSBURGH — The Flight 93 memorial will be built in phases and only 40 percent will be completed in time for a ribbon-cutting on the 10th anniversary of the attacks.
But family members of the 40 passengers and crew who died on the hijacked United Airlines flight said they're not disappointed the whole project won't be ready by Sept. 11, 2011.
"We are glad we will have a substantial memorial to dedicate," Patrick White, vice president of Families of Flight 93, said Saturday after a meeting of the Flight 93 federal task force and advisory commission in Somerset.
The initial phase will allow visitors to get close to the clash site, according to the National Park Service. It will include a plaza that extends along the edge of the crash site, with a ceremonial wall and drop-off to separate visitors from the crash site.
"Phasing is really a way to manage the funding," said Joanne Hanley, Flight 93 National Memorial superintendent. "We are building an entire national park and the funding ... is coming in at different times."
My Take: These people rose up against the enemies of America, were citizens, and were the only people who defended the US against the terrorist attack of 9-11 and struck the first blow against the terrorist while most likely saving the White House from having a JET take it out. How do the people saved by their noble actions repay them?????
FUCK YOU ALL TO HELL FEDERAL GOVERNMENT
