I recieved a 9/11 link this morning in a email

I recieved this email this morning. I thought it was beautiful. Hope others we think so too.

This is touching. Let's not forget!
Here is a commercial Budweiser produced after 9/11. They aired it only once so as not to benefit financially from it -- they just wanted to acknowledge the tragic event. This is so consistent with a company who always does things with a ton of class!! Can you imagine what the cost was considering... With the anniversary of this , it's a good time to keep this circulating. We will NEVER forget.

Thanks, that was nice. I really respect Budweiser, dh used to work for them, they are a class act.

That brought tears to my eyes. So many have tried to commercialized what happened that day, but it will always be an American tragedy in my eyes.

Wow, nothing "commercial" has made me shed a tear over those tragic events before. Being a native New Yorker with ties entirely too close to the event I tend to have a pretty jaundiced view of commercial entities regarding their "remembrances" of that day.

A truly class act.
