Here's an even more blunt and brutal assessment of the widows:

(1) How can we in the general public be assured that these people really did lose husbands in the 9/11 attacks? Absent independent facts to support their claims, we have no way to know for certain.

(2) How can we in the general public know if any of the widows were (a) cheating on their husbands and/or (b) planning a divorce before their husbands' unfortunate demise?

(3) How can we know if any were already in divorce proceedings, or already divorced and are actually the ex-wives of men who died?

(4) How can we know if any were political players or activists before 9/11 and are merely continuing as before?

(5) How can we know if their partisanship stems from any new relationships in their lives?

(6) How can we know if any have been paid in money, goods or services in return for fronting for their political cause?

Any enterprising reporters out there who want to tackle these questions on behalf of the American people? No, I didn't think so.

I would think that even the Democrats would not dare claim a woman was a widow of 9/11 unless it were true. However, they have done such shameless things before. But I think you are correct that no reporters are going to dig too deeply into the lives of the widows.
