substituteHallmark hasn't been bold enough yet, but American Greetings has Patriot Day Cards. The link was corrected from an earlier post where it expired; that one shouldn't, but it should be findable from americangreetings.com in any case.
If you'd like to tell them what you think of this, they are:
American Greetings Corporation
One American Road
Cleveland, Ohio 44144-2398
216/252-7300
Fax: 216/252-6778
Their toll free customer service number is: 800/777-4891.
Maybe they could tell us where that$2.95 $3.25 is going, or why it's time to have greeting cards when the hole in New York isn't filled yet and the war isn't over and a lot of important questions haven't been answered. Or what the hell they thought they were doing.
Hmm. Now Hallmark's site is down for maintenance. I hope they don't...

Date: 2006-09-11 08:24 am (UTC)Re: bitter leftist, I assume so yes. I also assume that hipsters will have ironic parties in which they throw paper airplanes at cakes. My other assumption is that a lot of people will be bummed out by all these things, but maybe that's optimistic.

Seriously, this looks like a job for Banksy.

Date: 2006-09-11 04:09 pm (UTC)a few reasons
Date: 2006-09-11 03:47 pm (UTC)We already had Memorial Day for the Civil War dead (worst thing for jus ever) and Veterans Day to commemorate the Armistice at the end of the Great War (worst thing for the world ever). We didn't make a new holiday for Pearl Harbor or the end of WW2. We didn't need another.
And I'm very sensitive to profiteering off 9/11. Either give the damned things away or give all the money to disabled veterans, but don't charge $3.50 a card like this was Halloween.
For an example of dealing with it respectfully, see Hallmark's page.
Re: a few reasons
Date: 2006-09-11 03:53 pm (UTC)I don't like the idea of profit from anyone's pain, either. I'm thinking more as that it's something for the people looking for this sort of thing - remembrance cards, so to speak. I thought the idea of free e-cards was a nice one.
Thank you so much for informing me of the reasons behind it like this. I'm rather saddened by it all. It's sick.
