I would still like to know how many New Yorkers, including police, firemen and ordinary citizens died as a result of not moving that Emergency Response Center from WTC7 years earlier when Giuliani was advised to do so. Any idea?
Each of you make arguments opposing Rudy - and each argument has a touch of merit, and a touch of exaggeration - in my mind.
Let me address Rudy's participation on 9/11 with a Katrina analogy - he led when when others fled. (my Jesse Jackson impression - no charge)
Now - if I may - onto the bigger issue - FR finding someone who is going to take the nomination away from Rudy.
I think there are only two possibilities (Mitt or Fred). I agree others are good men - but they stand little of no chance of getting any separation. I will not allow myself to even consider John McCain - his is a slow sinking ship.
Fred appears ready to announce an exploratory committee - HMM - fire in the belly? - is he waiting too long - are am I just impatient? I actually like his waiting - I would love to be a fly on his wall to see what he's up to everyday.
Mitt - the Mormon thing. My vast knowledge of the Morman Church is pathetically weak - so I don't care about that at all. He seems solid on the issues and he is one hard working man.
I would like to see a 3-5 man race ASAP possible with the next debate demanding each man talk for a MINIMUM of 3 minutes on each question - not 30 seconds - that's too easy. Make them talk and think and articulate at length.
There is plenty of time to defeat Rudy if that is destiny.
One more thought - the GOP has to start considering the number of Democrats who will NOT vote for Hillary. I think there is a vast pool that no one in the MSM is talking about.
Keep up the battle folks - the GOP will come out on top.
I don’t think there is ever going to be a way to answer that question. It has been studied in quite some detail though. If the evacuation orders had gotten out better then no doubt more would have been saved. Had the significance on some of what was told to 911 operators or from the helicopters pilots been reported and understood...maybe many more. I am sure there are many people that face these questions every single day and always will.
