Can anyone tell me why Guiliani is regarded as a hero? What exactly did he do in the aftermath of 9/11 that was so exceptional?
Besides what's been said, he was there all day, every day comforting and encouraging -- he went to hundreds (at least) of wakes and funerals (I recall a lot of criticism of Hillary, who went to 0). He gave away a bride (a stranger) whose father had been killed. From what I read, it sounded as if he never slept in the weeks immediately following.
