I am really impressed with the way this guy has handled this tragedy. Just by looking at him and his actions, if I was a New Yorker, I would feel confident I have a strong leader leading the fight. If he ever runs for President (considering the crappy quality of our leaders this day) this guy would get my vote!

Bush

The way he ran around the country did not instill confidence in me as my President. He finally made it to the scene of one of the bombings (Pentagon) what more than 30 hours later? Hello? Thanks a lot man.

The contrast betweent the two was VAST, IMHO.

Notice how the White House is trying to cover Bush's Great Escape to Nebraska by "suggesting" "credible evidence" that the President was a target. Likely they would like to get him. But he was in Florida. How was a hijacked plane in Pennsylvania a credible threat to him however?

They are as forthcoming as a stock promoters with these details though. I note that even Chris Mathews criticized him tonight for running to Nebraska. And Yes Guilliani did show more character than Bush who finally showed up at the Pentagon this afternoon to make an "appearance".
