September 11? What September 11?

Senator Jon Kyl has invited Geert Wilders to screen his film Fitna at the Capitol onThursday. Here is how the Associated Press begins its coverage of the event:

Republican Sen. Jon Kyl is hosting a film screening at the Capitol building on Thursday for a far-right Dutch lawmaker who claims that Islam inspires terrorism.

How far-right can you get?

I think we can safely say that, at least as far as our media culture is concerned, we are once again living in a September 10 world.
