No, that is your opinion. For God's sake, Bill, her only child fled on foot that morning, terrified that she would die and unable to reach either parent. Are you really that cold?

Everyone used the tragedy as a publicity stunt. Giuliani just happened to do it more masterfully. His appearance on SNL (and everywhere else, did the man have himself cloned? he was everywhere) was brilliant. But it's all about looking great and getting re-elected. And they ALL think they have noble reasons for it. But if they weren't big hams, they wouldn't be on TV, attempting to look masterful, and in charge.

I, of course, have no problem with politicians and publicity stunts- it is, after all, what they are programmed to look for. But I do have a problem with hypocrites who only see publicity stunts on one side. Well, not a problem, I guess it's just funny, in a tragic comedic sort of way.
