Dear Mrs. Breitweiser ,
I'm sorry that you lost your husband on 9/11. September 11th was a tragic day for our country and, I'm certain, for you. My birthday is on September 11th and so, for the rest of my life, I will be remind each birthday of this horrible tragedy. Each American poured forth their heartfelt sympathies to you and all of the other families who lost loved ones.
However, there has been something that has been even more tragic. Your actions in the last 12 months have been nothing less than craven political hackery.
And, as a rightful rebuke, I would like to direct your attention to the families who know that President Bush has followed the right path, did what he could, and has acted superbly in fighting terrorism.
Note that these families aren't whoring themselves around television, ranting and raving how the President should have and could have done more. These families weren't entertaining lunatic conspiracy theories that imply "Bush knew", and other equally undignified actions which you have been more than comfortable with embracing. These families weren't openly complaining about not being able to get onto "Hardball" or "Meet the Press". Rather, these families, mourned and continue to mourn their loved ones and go about their lives.
These families aren't making inane statements like "We simply wanted to know why our husbands were killed. Why they went to work one day and didn't come back." Rather, these families KNOW why: because a group of murderous terrorists killed them! Period. These families also know that President Bush and our great military have been systematically destroying the organization that brought forth these murderous thugs.
These families aren't out making the scurilous charge that, "President Bush and his workers . . . were the individuals that failed my husband and the 3,000 people that day." Rather, as you can read with your own 2 eyes, the families of 9/11 say, "Under the President‘s strong leadership in the war on terror and through the heroic efforts of our military forces, we are a safer country today".
I am ashamed of you, your actions, and your organization (Jersey Girls).
Your 15 minutes are well up. I suggest that you start with a mental enema to wash out all of the Michael Moore-conspiracy crap that is floating around your head. Then, check what's left of your dignity in at the nearest church or synagoge. You have some serious searching to do, ma'am.
I wish you well and hope that, at some point in the future, you come to realize how you have spoiled your husband's memory for cheap political gain.
Truly,
Matthew Donovan
