9-11 RUDY AND THE TRUTH

Giuliani has been running on "9-11" and it's good to see that some are calling him out on that. it seems that ALL the GOP candidates have deep flaws and for that reason, I think none will become President in 2008.

9/11 Families Counter Giuliani

HANOVER, N.H. (AP) — New York firefighters, including two who lost sons in the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks, joined other victims' relatives Monday to argue that Rudy Giuliani's character and actions make him unfit to be president.

Members of the group, 9/11 Firefighters and Families, long have been vocal critics of Giuliani's performance as New York mayor, but Monday marked their first trip to another state.

Jim Riches, a deputy New York fire chief, and Al Santora, who retired in 2000, said Giuliani ignored recommendations to equip firefighters with radios that would have allowed them to communicate with police and to set up a unified command center so both departments could share decision-making during big emergencies. Both men lost sons at the trade center.

"Lives were lost because of the lack of preparation and (Giuliani's) lack of leadership," said Riches, who spent 16 days in a coma after the attacks due to respiratory failure. "All he did was run that day, and get on TV and provide a calming influence for the United States of America. And they made him a hero."
