911 was NOT a success!!!!!!!

[qanda]

Where does this idea that Guiliani, Pataki and Bush did a good job with 911 come from? These men oversaw the worst attack in the history of our country. They had warnings and did absolutely nothing to prevent it.

Not one of them rescued a single soul or made a single decision to spare a single life on that day.

These men were heartless enough to turn this failure into political gain by looking official and in charge.

What a shame that we've made heroes out of these utterly usless failures.

1. Had New Orleans only lost two buildings I am sure the Mayor and

the local police could have handled things. New Orleans however lost almost EVERY building and residence in the entire city! Had NY been covered with 20 feet of water Guiliani would have had little say about relief efforts because his city officials would have been looking for boats to ride in.

New Orleans relief was 98% FEMA's responsibility. The loss of the world trade centers was 98% Guiliani's responsibility and he did do fairly well even though it was small potato's compared to what happened in NO.

2. It was a success because they didn't heal that wound. The had fear in

the fear bank. And then could control people for years.

3. Exactly! It's like praising the sleeping watchman who dozed while...

the building was broken into.
I've never undertood the praise for those particular "heroes" of 911, either. Always seemed like horseshit to me.
