Oh fuck, NO. "Commemorative" silver and gold coins with "You can run but you cannot hide."

On MSNBC. One side has Military figures and a helicopter and the words "You can run but you cannot hide." The other has the Twin Towers and "Justice has been done" quoted from President Obama. There's a gold and silver coing that sells for $49.95, "but if you act in the next ten minutes," you can get 'em both for $19.95.

Isn't there a better way to honor the THOUSANDS of men, women and children who were killed or maimed in the wake of 9/11 and it wars? Is this the best we've got?

or at least a voucher for a ringtone (do they still sell ringtones?) with Toby Keith singing about a boot in your ass?
