16. How disrespectful to the dead lying in the streets of New Orleans.
"There they were joined by Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld and the families of victims of the Sept. 11 terror attack on the Pentagon.
For most of the crowd, that was the most somber moment of the day."

What? thousands lying in the street dead and we have a party to celebrate the same people who let them die? This fake concern speech by Rumsfeld was the most solemn moment? CNN reported that Germany had a memorial service for the people who died in 9/11 and Hurricane Katrina. That was appropriate. That was done with class. This group of government and contract workers are despicable. We should all be in mourning not listening to music and having parties.

Of the Sept. 11 observance, she said, "You have to remember what happened. We really have to do what we can to always be observant and respectful of this day."

That was respectful? People wearing shirts advertising contractors and military recruiting? This administration has NO CLASS. We should be in mourning not having Country Western Rock concerts.
