1) He did not forget about 9/11.

George Stephanopoulos acknowledges that he should've pressed Rudy Giuliani on his insane comments this morning.

You can watch the entire miserable segment here, if you are in too good a mood this morning! George just lets Rudy babble on and on and on, without bothering to correct or challenge him, on anything. Like, for example, in addition to 9/11, some other guy did the exact same thing as this underwear bomber did, in December of 2001, only with a shoe, instead of underwear. And everyone knows and remembers this. George remembers this! But why bother to bring it up?

Attorney Lynne Stewart's crime seems to have been issuing a press release. For this, not only is her translator in jail, but the appeals court has upheld her conviction and requested a tougher sentence.

Damn, New York Post. You rocked it with today's headline, which gets placed in the epic "STAB BABY" headline file. But why so serious? Who're they talking about? Pinch Sulzberger? Col Allen? Jon Gosselin? Make guesses, place your bets! Ready?

Not satisfied to participate in wacky 9/11 conspiracies, Salt Lake City-based lawyer Jesse Trentadue has decided to rehash the real ground zero for the war on terror: Oklahoma City, where video tapes of nothing mean something's awry. This changes everything!

Have the political gods gone crazy? It would appear that way, because the Senate voted to allow Americans, who aren't always the most stable of folk, to carry unloaded and locked guns on Amtrak trains. How can this be good?

9/11 Truthers—the actual, self-declared movement Truthers—are, universally and without exception, morons. Van Jones signed a Truther petition, which was incredibly stupid, but he says he is not actually a Truther. Wha...?

There are many ways to memorialize the eighth anniversary of the Sept. 11 attacks. This morning, MSNBC chose the worst: re-airing the tape of their coverage from that terrible morning.

On this day eight years ago, four commercial airplanes were hijacked and crashed into buildings and a field. Thousands died. This is the first anniversary of that terrible day, though, that the Terrorists will not still be winning.

"The Moscow News: Things hard to explain, in a language you understand." Mmm hmm. Since this apparently didn't sink in last week: No. [Adfreak]

That ridic WWF 9/11 spec ad that raised such a ruckus last week actually won an award from the One Club, don't forget. So now the One Club is banning all "fake ads" from their awards show. Wise. [Agency Spy]

DDB Brasil, the ad agency that made the stupid World Wildlife Fund 9/11 ad, had denied making the video version. Oh, actually though, they did make it. And submitted it to the Cannes Festival, for a prize. Woops. [Ad Age]

What's worse than making a 9/11-themed ad? Making a 9/11-themed video!

September 11 as an advertising theme: it is not a good idea. It's really not. Even if you have a good cause. This ad is for the World Wildlife Fund, though! No. Do not do this, in ads. [Adfreak] UPDATED:

The Cambridge Police Department has released the 911 call that led to the arrest of Henry Louis Gates. The caller didn't say the men were black, and she said they could have just been having trouble with their keys.

Well, here's a little story that might impact the debate over the effectiveness of torture—Khalid Shaikh Mohammed, the guy who organized the 9/11 attacks, says that he lied and provided false information to interrogators to escape being tortured.

Good news if you are a Bush administration official who authorized abuses of power after a 24 marathon: you can't be sued!

The "Crisis Response Team" of a tiny little Minnesota town put together a book to help children deal with disasters. Let's learn and grow together.

Who will pay for scaring all of Manhattan last Monday? Obama promises action! Bloomberg promises... forgiveness! We promise finger-pointing.
