Apparently, the MSM hasn't heard about the other 9/11/ families. Or perhaps they'd rather ignore them since they don't fit into the MSM's agenda.
All 5 very likely ardent Democrats before hand... I'm sure there are a number of widows and widowers who would endorse Bush in a heartbeat. This is a non-issue.
The same ones that attended the 9/11 hearings?
There are probably 1500 widows from that day, and these five are the only ones anybody listens to. I wonder why that is?
Don't bother telling me, I already know.
That the widows of 0.18% of the victims endorse Kerry is newsworthy? Just imagine the media firestorm if it was a whole 1%!

Kerry and his POS will stop at nothing.
And these 5 woman don't speak for all or even most of the widows, so the headline is misleading. these are a few political hacks out of a group of thouseand or so.
Where I come from, this is called "making hay" from widowhood.
Ignore them. They don't deserve a response, and they have very little influence, if any, on the voting public.
I know that political correctness dictates that nothing should be said about these unfortunate women who lost their loved ones in that murderous attack. I would not do so, but their hypocrisy is astounding. They castigate others for making a political issue of 9/11, while doing so themselves. I view this in the same light I view John Kerry's Vietnam service. If he had not made a big deal of it, perhaps I, and others, would not have either. Same with these women. Their wrong-headedness is almost too much to believe. It shows that politics does indeed trump common sense. As a counterpoint, I like to view the situation of Debra Burlingame - whose brother, Charles, was the pilot of the plane that crashed into the Pentagon. How many times has she appeared in the media? She is an outspoken critic of the "Families of 9/11" organization, but she has probably been on TV once to every 10 times those other women have. And we all know, there IS no media bias.
I am shocked!

Beneath waffling, Kerry opposes death penalty
As a mother who is surviving the unimaginable pain of losing a child to murder, my opposition to John Kerry is very personal. In his acceptance speech, he never mentioned the death penalty.
Kerry opposes it, even for those who murder children. Not surprisingly, he has flip-flopped for political purposes and now claims to support the death penalty for terrorists who kill Americans. But does he really? And if he does, how can he justify executing terrorists who murder Americans but not the monsters who live among us and murder our children?
Kerry is on record that he will impose a moratorium on the federal death penalty. He favors Osama bin Laden being tried in a U.S. court. That would be a federal trial. Would the moratorium apply to the man responsible for the most horrific mass murder in our history?
Kerry brags about his record as a tough prosecutor, but he prosecuted white-collar criminals, not violent offenders. We can reasonably judge what people might do by what they have done. Kerry will be soft on crime. He will nominate leftist, weak federal judges. He defended the Michael Dukakis furlough program that allowed convicted murderer Willie Horton to murder again.
Kerry will NOT get this family's vote. It is very personal.

I know what you're thinking.
You're thinking holy cow! Five widows, who had husbands killed in the 9-11 attacks, all endorsing John Kerry.
Five women who, before 9-11, were, no doubt, staunch Republican supporters, home schooling their children, taking them to church and giving them the foundation nessessary to become responsible American citizens.
Five widows all now separated, by death, from their Knights in shining armour, by a dastardly deed, committed by GWB, which enabled the terrorists to kill their spouses.
Yes folks ... it is only a trickle of five widows now, but it will soon be a raging torrent of thousands, nay, hundreds of thousands, that will soon open the flood gates to all things pure and sweet.
A Kerry victory in November.
And to think it was UPI that brought us this news that enabled us to know about those five widows, that made us see the light and vote for John F. Kerry, which saved the United States of America.
I stand in awe of the widows five, for they are the real hero's
Their rightful name is the 9-11 Hags.
Some people make a career out of widowhood, I seem to remember a widow who took her husbands Senate seat,Sarah Brady isnt quite a Widow, but she has made a career of her husbands handicap after the shooting, I am sure there are many other examples of widows who got a taste of their 15 minutes of fame and nursed it for the rest of their lives.
Thats what these women are doing nursing their 15 minutes.
Breitweiser, and her band of sisters are very naive and, quite frankly, ignorant. Moreover, they have all become useful fools for those who want to bring down this country.
I am anxious to see who these are. I think it may be the Jersey women.
I'll never forget an interview I saw of one of the women (I don't know if it was one of these) a few months after 9/11. She was from Jersey, lived in a HUGH house and all she could talk about was how she was not going to be able to live in the "style and comfort she was used to". That is a quote. I will never forget that. More regret about losing the lifestyle then the husband.
Sad really.
She basically used him as a living breathing ATM.
