I don`t know if this was posted already, I couldn`t find it, but you know, Im truly starting to wonder if this just ain`t all one big leftist cicus designed to descredit 911 altogether and everyone involved that day with the rescue. Descredit everyone except the terrorists. It`s not their fault that they flew jetplanes into buildings, the buildings should have ducked. This is unreal, I can`t believe this. Yesterday it was the comment that the fireman are not worthy of the BoyScouts, today it`s screaming at the one guy who did more about the saftey of the citizens of NYC than any other Mayor I can remember, and I`ve lived here for 40 years. I can`t believe this woman could say "My son was murdered because of your incompetence!" No, your son was murdered because terrorists flew two jetplanes into buildings. Flew them even though they were appeased for eight years by Bill CLinton. Or "This was not a time for Rudy Giuliani to talk about all the great things he did on 9/11, he can save that for his talking tours. He should have told us what went wrong and what we should do now." What went wrong was 8 years of appeasement Madame. After your city was attacked the first time, what was done about it?

What do they want him to do? All this screaming and outrage is not going to bring their relatives/loved ones back. I'm seriously beginning to think this is a leftist conspiracy.

I know one thing: these pathetic families have worn out their welcome. The time for sympathy for them is over. They're all millionaires by now, anyway.

They should shut the hell up and get off the stage and out of our lives.

Conspiracy is a strong word for this circus. IN any given situation there is going to be a group who is totally opposite of the others. Most 911 families are moving on and living life again. Sadly several families cant let go and are trying to pass blame onto the wrong people.

I thank GOD that Rudy was mayor that day and had the leadership to reform NYC for 8 years prior to 911.

Say what you want about him but he is a true leader.

They would give him a pass if he switched to the democrat party

I am tired of the press referring to the air-time hounds, the leftwing supporters who are trading on their dead relatives, as the "families." They are a minority among those who lost relatives on 9/11.

I spit on the press for its dishonesty. (And I write this as Jamie Gorelick is on screen being sanctimonious about "searching for answers." What a pile of cr*p.

A vast one--the VLWC.

I watched Giuliani this AM. His presentation was candid and caring. He fully explained the radio problem but the Jersey Girls were too busy looking at their own navels to listen to the explanation!

The protesters were WAY out of line, and one of the other bereaved at the hearing told them to "sit down and shut up" because they were wasting time.

[The Wizard]

these were just democrat activists, not real people.

Don't overestimate the enemy. It's only half vast.

Welcome to the board with a fine post and spot on comment.

Makes one wonder where we would be today, if, for example, widows and orphans from WW2 had the mindset of these people.

Clinton/McAuliffe/Kerry/Heinz-Kerry paw prints all over this one. Remember the day the two women, one of whom is mentioned in this article, made the news rounds? They used the exact language on the programs they appeared (separately) on. This is a campaign to discredit Giuliani for the future and Bush for the present.

[cmsgop]

leftist conspiracy

There is No Question About that,The Rats need to make people forget about 9/11 and pin blame on the GOP.

[Peach]

Ditto that.

Those people dishonor their dead. One woman was actually screaming "murderer" and "liar" at Guliani.

He is a class act and they are low life scum.

"This is pork-barrel politics at its worst," the mayor said. "It also, unfortunately, has the effect of aiding and abetting those who hate us and plot against us."

Perhaps you should take it up with YOUR senator Mayor Bloomberg, you DO have one don't you?

What's the matter, couldn't SHE bring home the bacon??

Giuliani is a hero and was almost killed in the wtc collapse, was trapped underground for quite a while. These relatives are leftists and democrat instigators. This entire article is absurd, written from the perspective of these people. Giuliani is a national hero but you can see they are starting the deconstruction process on him as well for political reasons. Someone (President Bush) needs to stand up to the left wing.

Last point, reporting these people's "outrage" as purely genuine is pure propoganda treatment.

It's just the Jersey Girls Jerks again.

John Podhoretz just wrapped up a segment on Brit's show explaining that yesterday and then today's "hearings" (I use the term lightly) crossed the line and forever damaged them and their credibility.

Some of us had dismissed them after watching them in Washington, but I have to agree with JP that they outdid themselves these last two days, and those protesters and families sealed the deal by their behavior and the way the commission chose to deal with that (being that they chose not to deal with it).

Disgraceful and shameful. As I said yesterday, they've gone into some weird realm and fancy themselves as a super tribunal of sorts, pontificating and pronouncing.

It's been plain they were not on a fact-finding mission. Now there can be no doubt and even those who wanted to pretend otherwise will be hardpressed to defend that absurd notion. IMO

That was Sally.
