Our Feature Presentation:
Her only National appearance....
Christie Todd and self righteous venting
Well, the Republican freakshow continues today with Christie Todd Whitman appearing at Congressional hearings regarding her role in proclaiming the 9/11 area safe to breath. Of course, there are those pesky clean up workers and firemen and policemen and residents with mesothelemia and other difficult to pronounce ailments that will eventually kill them. Oh, and that lawsuit that is hanging over your head Christie brought by residents of the surrounding 9/11 site Well, they..basically want to pluck out your eyes after they cut off your head.
She didn't appear willingly today. Oh, no. Initially, in May she said she would not appear. But, she now knows that its subpoena-oversight time in the Big Country and the Dems dont seem to be too bashful to subpoena her. She knows it would have eventually been served. Propably wouldn't look right in the Whitman family history. I would think she became very depressed this year after we clinched Congress.....and the inevitable subpoena by Nadler-inevitable like the upcoming fatalities of thousands of people.
Check out her refusal to appear in May of this year:

Here's what she yelped about today like Old Yeller:
"There are indeed people to blame. They are the terrorists who attacked the United States, not the men and women at all levels of government who worked heroically to protect and defend this country,"
How thrilling! How noble!..the smallest violin in my collection sings for you. 6 years out and absolutely no contrition at all.
She is the Alberto Gonzalez of the EPA. Blame the terrorists. This isn't an excuse. Its bald face arrogance. Almost a fu*^ you. I'm still flailing around looking for the video of the hearing. Nadlers spokeswoman said it should be on tonite.
This is from Congressman Nadler's site: http://www.house.gov/...
Christie Whitman repeatedly declared the air safe, and now thousands of people are sick, and some have died, from World Trade Center contamination," said Rep. Nadler. "To add insult to injury, she just went on 60 Minutes and tried to blame everybody else for her misdeeds. She must be held accountable,"
Lets see..2007-2001=6 years.....my my my how time flies and how she would never testify.
Tomorrow,TalkingPointsMemo will have a TPMTV breakdown with hopefully juicy salvos.
You know what I think and as a New Yorker? From Brooklyn? Who saw the smouldering ruins from the 69th street Bay Ridge pier? Jesus, what a site that was. Try keeping your mouth half-open and your eyes bulging out. And not moving for a while.
She was just following orders-lives were not a consideration-more like obstacles. Boss Bush was screaming to get Wall Street up and running. A good little lieutenant obeying orders without question. As pathetically incompetant as Brownie. Can't run the risk of screwing with our holdings and investments. And those of our corporate pimps and friends that put us here. Hey, but we made out like bandits anyway......
