[Camp Kerry is releasing a new TV ad targeting women and national security voters, and any combination of the two. The new spot, called] Ever Since, ... I fought for the 9/11 commission, something George W. Bush, the man my husband, Ron, and I voted for, didn't think was necessary. |
[Criticism of those ads, in fact, warranted an even broader attack on families of September 11 victims. Eric Alterman wrote of the spin-assault on September Eleventh Families for Peaceful Tomorrows, which openly criticized Bush's use of images from September 11 in his 2004 re-election bid: Rush Limbaugh took an early swing at the group, complaining,] These people are poisoned.

There was no attempt to determine who was accountable on the 9/11 Commission. This time, there's got to be accountability. If you're an elected official, you should be inviting accountability for yourself. |
There's no reason not to prosecute them. |
Two of the hijackers were from U.A.E. and they flew the planes into my husband's building. |
We need transparency, and we certainly need accountability. |
