Rudy Guiliani savaged for toxic Ground Zero mismanagement on KO
Edited on Fri Mar-23-07 07:53 PM by wordpix
Tonight, Keith Olbermann's guest Wayne Barrett, author of Grand Illusion re: Rudy Guiliani, said Rudy's last 3 mos. in office as mayor NYC wasn't so rosy and the author cited the toxic waste site of Ground Zero. Barrett said Guiliani was just an "echo" of everything then Interior Sec. Christy Todd Whitman said about the site being fine. Barrett said as mayor, RG was in charge of the site and is responsible for not protecting 911 first responders who now have 911 toxic lung syndrome.

Barrett also said that RG is now saying it was the feds' responsibility. Let the questions begin about Christy Todd Whitman's role, too. She has plenty to tell us about the 911 site as well as her management of the Interior Dept.

I have mentioned RG's incompetent handling of Ground Zero's toxicity before on DU and was hoping it would be front and center in an election if Rudy ran. :popcorn:

1. I missed why Keith put himself on worst person in the world. Can anyone fill me in as to why?

10. He put HIMSELF on Worst Person, not Giuliani
and indeed, it was because he recognized he'd been hypocritical for calling Glenn Beck a Worst Person for ridiculing Rosie O'Donnell's weight when Keith himself had called Roger Ailes a "fatass" in the past--and Keith is not thin himself.

Anyway, I was kind of surprised that Keith, to some small degree, was even buying into the "Rudy the Hero of 9/11" hype, despite having been well familiar with Rudy's not-so-hot reputation before 9/11. Perhaps Keith needs to get schooled a bit on Rudy and 9/11. I have a feeling Keith would not like what he learned one little bit.

4. For chiding Glen Beck about calling Rosie O'Donnell fat when
Keith, himself, had called Roger Ailes a "fatass" once.

8. No i just did it on my WMV not that good LOL!!!
I just like to visually document the corruption out there

There is a guy who rides his bike down in lower manhatten and he rode his bike the day of 911
He is now dying of lung CA never smoked and in his 30's he is documenting his cancer on You tube

the air quality was not suitable to breathe and NY with EPA sent people in knowing it was dangerous

Guiliani won't be president
He sucks

6. Excellent video! Copyright it and sell it to Ghouly's opponents.
Especially nice juxtaposition of protected Pentagon worker and Ground Zero worker.
Thanks :hi:

11. You are really GOOD at this, lovuian! Last night I watched
your honey bee clip, and it was excellent also. The You Tube has an option to select more videos by author and I intend to do that later when I have more time.

7. every construction worker who worked there
Edited on Fri Mar-23-07 08:23 PM by madrchsod
knew that shit was bad. whether or not they wore protective gear is immaterial to the fact that the officials said there was`t a problem. the general public are ones who really paid the price because they did`t know they were flat out lied to. i hope every scumbag who told these lies gets their rewards

9. This is another coverup and thousands are going to die
there is a corresponding video with Dust to Dust it has testimony of a 911 responder cleanupper

He was a smart kid and wore his equipment. They were told to be silent about what went on

They had these guys in barracks down by ground zero sleeping all night near the fumes

the kid slept with his respirator on all night and all day

its a freakin travesty

12. Don't forget that Rudy also destroyed evidence from a crime scene.
He ordered the steel from the Towers to be destroyed before any analysis could be done. Cover-up? Maybe. Incompetence? Definitely.
