1. This makes me absolutely SICK!

How dare that bastard campaign on 9/11 - the little fucker ran away and now he's painting himself as some big hero? Just when I think he can't sink any lower! :grr:

[freeminder]

2. warming up the crowd???

Some puking is in order, un-be-lievable.

They're lucky he doesn't throw some people in the audience out of the window to recreate the right mood.

Oh wait, maybe not a bad idea in his case.

[ncgrits]

3. So he's showing this to "energize" his crowd?!?

People are energized by watching the deaths of 3000 of their countrymen and women? What the hell? He redefines a-hole. It's disgusting.

I think this really needs to be hammered. It's beyond words to describe it. . . .

8. Exactly

I could never imagine anything so low.

[calimary]

4. That's really mind-blowing. And a little stomach-turning, too.

Are they including that Air Force One photo of him on the phone and looking out the window, while he was flying around all that day? Will they have plenty of supplies on hand at the entrances? Please see the cashier.

5. Those were MY towers!

And everybody else in NY, especially those of us who saw them fall!

YOU CAN'T HAVE THEM SMIRKY MCDUMBASS!

[ROH]

6. Ask some of those who have suffered...

For example:

7. Welcome to DU

Thanks for the article. Do the 9/11 families know about this?

[ROH]

15. I expect they do

The letter is certainly powerful.

Question: Why wasn't an order given to evacuate the Pentagon (and the White House) after the second WTC tower was hit? Wasn't it an obvious potential target after the twin towers crashes were seen?

Bush, Kerry Trade Barbs in Pennsylvania, Ohio

At 00:45

Reporter:

President Bush started the day in Pennsylvania, a state he has visited 41 times since taking office.

This morning he spoke in a hockey arena in Wilkes Barre.

"Just seems like yesterday I was here in Wilkes Barre. But come to think of it, I was."

But that folksy greeting quickly gave way to a speech that contained a sustained assault on John Kerry, portraying the Democrat as a man who won't do what is necessary to protect the nation.

Before the president took the stage, images from the World Trade Center wreckage played on the arena's giant TV screens.

10. Pictures of the wreckage are different that showing the collapse

I don't know how anyone can look at either and not see him for the failure he is but there's a difference.

Film of the collapse on the screens would have been goulish and cruel. Photos of the wreckage, as inappropriate as they are, are to be expected- the megaphone moment is the point in time when he had the most people fooled simultaneously.

[Stephanie]

14. Despicable either way.

Yes one is worse but now we're talking fine degrees of evil. The wreckage was a graveyard. The wreckage burned until Dec or Jan.

[geek tragedy]

11. FUCK YOU REPUBLICANS!!!!!!!

Fuck them straight to hell!! Goddammn it!!!!

12. Piece-of-shit MOTHERFUCKER

13. why doesn't the asshole show himself reading "The Pet Goat" instead?
