After 9/11, Rudy wasn't a rescue worker -- he was a Yankee

Giuliani said he spent as much time at ground zero as many rescue workers. Where was he really? Much of the time, at baseball games.

    actually, verelse, the best solution might be to actually read

    the letters and article before responding. Me included.

    timbuktom's first sentence was a little broad, but goes on talking about certain "middle-American ding-dongs"...who "believe they are cool to choose Giuliani versus Romney or McCain" which does not represent an attack on all midwesterners, just Republican midwesterners with "their mullets and printed T-shirts and wrinkled pants and giant shoes." Now do we really want to misread and dis this letter as "One person attacks the entire population of the Midwest..." ? Not me! Its funny! And limited to a subset of Republicans who may very well exist, for all I know.

    And, Garry Owen was, as I read it, defending Clinton for not exploiting the site, not criticizing her, kweberlit.

    And the anonymous blah blah blah letter was sarcasm, natural1. And its informative, to naive me, to know that there really are people, somewhere out there in America, who believe that Rudy's going to games was a public service. Thanks gck4061, maybe in 1942, but not so much today, just my opinion.

    In all, except for thrasher's rant (excuse me, mr just my opinion's rant), and the guy who prefers the trains on time to America, most of the current letters on this article seem to qualify as 2-3 or better. But please read the letter you are responding to or they are 6s and 7s.
