From the AP:
NEW YORK - The former police and fire chiefs who were lionized after the World Trade Center attack came under harsh criticism Tuesday from the Sept. 11 commission, with one member saying the departments' lack of cooperation was scandalous and "not worthy of the Boy Scouts." -----------------------------------------------------
Well, I don't know about you but I'VE HAD ENOUGH! Please come tomorrow to NYC -- if you are close -- and FReep the 9/11 Commission. Enough is enough -- I'm so enraged that these political beasts would DARE attack the heros of the NYPD and FDNY. I can barely contain myself.
The hearing is being held at Bob Kerrey's "New School University" in Manhattan. The exact location is the New School University’s John L. Tishman Auditorium (66 West 12th Street). Wednesday's hearings start at 8am.
Please post to this thread if you can attend. Enough is enough -- it is time for the people to be heard.
F,
Sorry this is Ad Hoc and last minute, but my blood is boiling, and this is an opportunity that we cannot pass up.
The thing to do is get a message like this to the police and fire unions. they will send men, angry men, to protest this crap. and it will get media attention.
and I will add - the building trades, the iron workers et all, they are some tough SOBs. I'd like to see a rivet sticking out of Lehman's *ss.
I heard this earlier today and it infuriated me. Do we know who said this?
Just as infuriating were that Heinz-financed idiot widows group applauding the attacks on New York's finest. Those police and fire personnel ran into the buildings to try to rescue their husbands, and gave their lives.
How DARE those people applaud criticism of those who willingly risked and gave their lives.
The Boy Scout comment was made by Lehman I believe.
Prairie
If I were anywhere near there I'd do it. Seeing a clip of Lehman earlier I was outraged at the tone and content of their "questions".
They are conducting an inquisition. Of the wrong people.
FReep the scum of the 9/11 Commission who DARE impugn the integritgy of the FDNY and NYPD heros!
BUMP!!!
Bless your heart, jmsteain. I cannot thank you enough.
I was too angry to even type at the time I read this.
Consider them freeped.
R U Coming?
Everyone is aware of the issues between FDNY and NYPD. However,consider this freeped since this nothing but a witch hunt.
R U Coming?
I'll be on the train to Stony Brook, so maybe I'll just keep going :)
Whoever is coming, let me know, and we will meet up.
Hey these are union members and you can't say good things about union members on this site!
I'm in South Carolina. Even if I left right now...
Jmstein - can you post their phone numbers and addresses if you have them?
I'd thought that was what was on the thread...see - I'm so ticked I can't read and can hardly type.
Democrats have no use for police, just look at what Hillary said about the case of some cops up on charges during her Senate campaign. She publicly convicted them before trial - and her a lawyer! (Ultimately they were acquited).
The Gorelick Commission isn't about anything else but politics, and the RINO members of that commission don't have the honor to say so and resign. Unless they have subpoena power they should just be boycotted by the people they want to interview.
I wish that I could be there with you. Good luck.
