From the article Ann Coulter: America’s fiery, blond commentatrix
But nobody’s talking too much about the finer points of Miss Coulter’s argument. Instead, everyone — from Hillary Rodham Clinton down — is going bananas about a couple of paragraphs on page 103 and 112 in which the author savages the 9/11 widows. Not all of them. Just the quartet led by Kristen Breitweiser and known as “the Jersey Girls.” These four widows have been regular fixtures in the New York TV studios since they first emerged to complain that the average $1.6 million-per-family compensation was insufficient. The 9/11 commission, in all its ghastly second-guessing showboating, was largely their project.
*Emphasis added
Evidently I’m not the only one who recalls the Jersey Girls talking in articles about how they exerted pressure on the 911 commission. Is it any wonder that the end result was a circus side show or that they concluded what they did? What has always bothered me about the Jersey Girls and their ilk is that they would place blame on the government for the deaths of their family members. The terrorists are responsible for the deaths of their family members. Not the government.
They act as though the Bush administration could have simply clapped their hands and stopped the attacks as if they were turning off a light (clap lights). To truly do anything that would have stopped this you would have own a time machine. Because this didn’t start on September 11th. It started years ago.
Don’t get me started on “victimhood”. Mark Steyn gets it and explain it.
