ON TUESDAY MORNING Sen. Hillary Clintons’ first thought when the second plane hit was “terrorists.” Her next thought was “Chelsea,” who was not only in New York, but staying downtown.
“She’d gone on what she thought would be just a great jog,” says Sen. Clinton. “She was going to go down Battery Park. She was going to go around the Towers. She went to get a cup of coffee and that’s when the plane hit.”
Chelsea was close enough to hear the rumble? “She did hear it,” says Clinton. “She did.”
And to see the smoke in person, not on television? “That’s right,” she says.

Well, my father's *first* thought was that I was FOUR blocks away -- and without any Secret Service agents. His second was terrorists.

I think the story of Chelsea heading over there is pure B(arbra) S(treisand) and fabricated in order for them to glom onto anything that might be newsworthy.

Chelsea heard it in person? I was only covered with teeny tiny glass shards while watching bright orange flames shoot out the sides of the building and windows cascading down to the street, as a few people were apparently being blown out of the building by the force of impact and I was calling 911.

She *saw* smoke? I only ran in and from it as the towers were collapsing.

So, how many more gasbag celebs are going to insert themselves into this tragedy?

How horrific it must have been for you to witness it first-hand - to feel the debris hitting you and choke on the smoke and gases and see it all in person. We can't even imagine.

I cannot even imagine the horror you must have gone through! It is horrible enough to have watched it on TV.

It seems to me that your father had NORMAL parental thoughts. The first thought of every parent I know was to go get their kid(s) and hug them.

That Hillary's first thought was "terrorism" speaks volumes.
