Spitzer warns GOP to not use 9/11 for politics
BOSTON -- New York Attorney General Eliot Spitzer had a blunt warning Thursday for Republicans opening their national convention late next month in New York City: Don't politicize the 9/11 terrorist attacks.
"We're going to hear a lot about Sept. 11," Spitzer said about the upcoming GOP convention. "I say this to the Republican Party: With all respect and all deference, do not dare use 9/11 for political purposes."

The way you dared to use the victims of the 2000 NASDAQ crash for political purposes?
To: ejdrapes
Bite me, jerk. These are PRECISELY the images and issues that we need to raise, not cover up.

Or what? You going to go cry to mommy or Terry McAuliffe?

Hey Spitzer..
"Shove IT!"..
now sue me.
To: ejdrapes
Blow it out your arse, AG. YOUR side politicized the WOT, now you warn the GOP not to respond to your charges?
A focus on 9/11 would be HUGELY affective. I can understand why the metrosexuals in the Democratic party would be terrified of it.

Spitzer's ego is way out of control.
Hey, Elliot! You don't dictate to the Republican Party, you don't dictate to the President ANYTHING.

Spitzer has too much power.
To: Mr. Jeeves
This guy is the most partisan misuser of political power I have ever seen. Look at what he did to grasso and the drug companies....

Bush ignored the warning signs for 9/11???? Hmmm, maybe that's why Bubba sent his biatch Sandy Berger into the National Archives to steal memos that were critical of Bubba and company's handling of terrorism throughout the 90s. Clinton left a huge mess for Bush to clean up and yet not only do Democrats want to blame Bush for it they are going to warn us about not politicizing 9/11?
JUST WHAT THE F#@k HAVE THEY BEEN DOING NOW FOR THE PAST YEAR?
To: ejdrapes
I guess its alright for the DNC to have 9-11 families speak about it at there convention, have moore use it in his films etc.....

"Neither party should use this for politics, so I say to the Republicans, do not go there," Spitzer told cheering New York delegates to the Democratic National Convention in Boston. "It would not be fair or right, and we will not let you do it." Omigosh!!! He said this at the convention!!! How is that not using it for politics?!
