I believe Glenn Beck is behind this. As I have seen and heard I do support this.

I'm not saying that it's all bad, but it should be called the 9/10 project. He says that 9/12 means that the aim is to bring us to the unity the nation experienced the day after 9/11, but the issues are presented in a typical conservative frame, insinuating the usual liberal and Democratic suspects. This politics-as-usual taking advantage of a national trajedy for partisan purposes.

Beck tries to avoid partisanship more than most pundits. He is most definitely a conservative, but considers himself a libertarian. I wouldn't say he is using national tragedy for partisan purposes. He IS using it to awaken us to values many hold as common but too quickly allow to lie dormant.
