Schumer had the nerve to pimp one of his poster size report cards today.
Oh, we only got a 'C' for Homeland Security. How many terrorist attacks have their been since 9/11 in the US?

Politicians and labor leaders held a rally at Ground Zero Saturday pledging to support efforts to get federal funding for first responders, construction workers, volunteers, residents, and students exposed to health risks during and after the 9/11 attacks. On the sixth anniversary of that day, three New York Congressman––Democrats Carolyn Maloney and Jerrold Nadler, and Republican Vito Fossella––will introduce the 9/11 Health and Compensation Act. The bill would provide healthcare and monitoring to all the people exposed to the environment of downtown Manhattan after the attacks. It will also require the federal government to fund data collection so that the after-effects of exposure to the downtown Manhattan environment six years ago is better understood.
Sen. Hillary Clinton was at the rally, drawing cheers from the crowd and posing for pictures with labor leaders. The New York Times notes that the Senator attended the rally as a time-out from her Presidential campaign, but they quote her sounding like she's delivering a stump speech.
"And I pledged to myself, and I pledge to all of you, that I will stay with you every step of the way until we get every single person the health care they deserve,” she said. Doing that, she added, “will be my highest priority, whether I am your senator or I am your president."

If you see Hillary and then imagine her as president for 8 years you will want to jump off a bridge.
I'll look for a video link.

The NY Slimes covers it here, they want to give money to ANYONE who can claim they were exposed to any dust from 9/11:

The legislation, which will be introduced in the House on Tuesday — the sixth anniversary of the attacks — would require the federal government to collect data to better understand the extent of ground zero-related illnesses. It also would provide compensation to anyone exposed to asbestos and other contaminated dust, including rescue workers, office workers, students and even tourists who were in Lower Manhattan on Sept. 11.
Don’t these people have doctors and insurance anyway?

Hillary has two speeds, shrieking and condescending.

Oh I see, taxpayers have to pay to study this and then taxpayers have to give money to everyone in the area. It would make more sense to sue Osama.

Actually, now that I think about it, maybe we should sue the Clintons because they didn’t get OBL when they could. This would have prevented this whole problem in the first place.
It seems that they rapaciously view everything that happens to our country through a political prism.
Trial lawyers are leeches on American society. They are legal terrorists holding any and everyone they can hostage. They bought politicans and changed the laws to favor them. They are really an evil bunch of people. Think Senator Edwards. They have grown outrageously rich maniuplating the legal system and imposing the cost on all of society. “First let’s kill all the lawyers.” That was Shakespeare’s idea and a good one.

Maybe Hillary should be asking why the fund her husband and Dole set up to “help” 9/11 families go to college and has raised more than $125 million is stiffing families it promised to help. http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1893547/posts
Then she could move on to this.

They both suck, but the Clintons are far worse, IMO.
The very worst thing they did was concocting tales about Chelsea being down here on the morning of 9/11 when she clearly wasn’t. That was a major insult to the loved ones of every person murdered that morning, as well as those who were legitimately there and unable to let their families know that they had survived.
I’d love to be able to give Chelsea my memories and nightmares, and see if she still wants to pretend she was here.
