Yet who gets four pages in Talk magazine -- somebody who was in absolutely no danger, and who thought about the Bush tax cut when thousands were dying!To be perfectly honest, when I was running from the first collapsing tower and the debris cloud, and then when a plane was buzzing over us and we thought it was going to take out the bridges next to us (turned out to be our F-16s), the LAST thing on mind was even who the President was! I just wanted to live.
She wasn't in danger, so she decided to try and place herself in danger -- or at least in camera range. I bet that if she managed to get on TV while she was making her way *toward* the WTC, she would have claimed that she was there and trying to leave.

Ill never understand what it is the family has the so enthralls the mediaIt's like watching a car wreck. It nauseates you, but you can't bear to look away from the absolute carnage.

Great analysis! Oh, and of course her SS protection is going to let her walk towards a terrorist attack.

Looks like a little over two miles [from Union Square to WTC]. Chelsea would have had to RUN, instead of "finding herself wandering downtown", in order to be anywhere close when the first tower fell.2.5 miles, actually.
I love Chelsea bashing, but - speaking as someone who used to live on Union Square West - she wouldn't have had any trouble making it down there in the time frame she claims. It was roughly 1 hour 20 minutes from the first plane impact until the South Tower fell. It only takes about 15 minutes to walk a mile.

I have to email this to my brother- He has a right to know that his Stanford BA ain't worth diddley.

She is an Oxford student?You don't really think most of the students of the snob schools get there on merit, do you?
The nice thing about her is the tax and spend that is in bread. Not only the tousands that died, but the families they left behind with no means of support, Chelsea wants them to be taxed to the fullest. She wants them to pay up, even though they'll go hungry this winter, she feels everybody's pain.

Before Sept. 11 I wouldn't have believed I had many innocences leftMaybe she should have gone to class once in a while.
Bad choice of words, IMO
Tell me about it...I don't think even "innocences" (plural) is a word.
Before Sept. 11 I wouldn't have believed I had many innocences much innocence left

MY DEAR GOD! I will never again take a barf alert for granted! I agree. Ya know, ya just see so many that you become sorta numb to the idea, BUT, along comes a category 10, and it just catches you off guard!
I will await the WTC Chelsea Doll to be released just in time for Christmas. Comes with her own latte, jogging shoes, and little t-shirt that says "W's Tax Cuts Suck". Phone booth sold separately.

At least Great Britain has passed a law concerning Chelsea. She's not allowed around funeral homes and can not cross the street during day light hours between a church and where a cemetery is located. The law stated that if a funeral procession were to be enroute, the site of her could turn said procession up a alley.

That kid never had ANY innocence to begin with.....

"Before Sept. 11 I wouldn't have believed I had many innocences left," begins the four-page story in the December issue of the magazine. "I had seen people who had lost everything and everyone they loved to war, famine, and natural disasters. ... Despite all that, I woke up that Tuesday morning feeling good about where I was in my life and happy about where I was going." Oh, man, no wonder they kept the gag on. What a typical limo liberal.

I have the perfect job for Chelsea and it would help solve world hunger. I could place her, out in the corn fields of Nebraska. She would have crows bringing back corn, they stole 3 years ago. That is one ugly child. I thought Amy Carter was bad.

"I worried that with the tax cut we wouldn't have enough money to repair New York and D.C. and to help the families of the thousands I knew must have died," she wrote. These people are even sicker than I thought.

I love Chelsea bashing, but - speaking as someone who used to live on Union Square West - she wouldn't have had any trouble making it down there in the time frame she claims. It was roughly 1 hour 20 minutes from the first plane impact until the South Tower fell. It only takes about 15 minutes to walk a mile. According to Chelsea's breathless account, she didn't leave Union Square until after the second tower was hit. She then tried to call her mother, and then left Union Square. That time frame gives her approximately 45 minutes of walking downtown before the South Tower fell. Under normal circumstances, she may have been able to travel 15 minutes in a mile, but with so many people fleeing uptown at the same time, I seriously doubt she made it too far in that time frame.
