Have You Forgotten?

A Small Victory, a blog on the right, complains that protesters are gearing up to give a very warm welcome to the Republican Party national convention:
Perhaps these people have short memories and the images of 9/11 have already disappeared from their minds, replaced by images of Bush as Hitler.

Maybe they need a reminder. ("The Forgotten Enemy," A Small Victory, August 1, 2004, http://asmallvictory.net/archives/007311.html)

I doubt that a reminder of the 9/11 terrorist attacks can do the right any good at this point. As a matter of fact, we on the left may very well appropriate the slogan "Have You Forgotten?" superimposed on the images of the burning World Trade Center. I've photoshopped the image made by A Small Victory to remind the right of what they would rather forget:
