It’s difficult to watch him talking about Rudy Giuliani in such glowing terms. I remember listening to all kinds of people talk about Giuliani’s leadership after September 11th and what it meant to them. How and when did Rudy lose his mind?

he announced he would not be disbursing donations made to the city until March -- only a public outcry made him quickly change his mind. Was he planning to divert the accrued funds, or skim the accrued interest?

I was just thinking about David Letterman's remarks and his subsequent interview with President Clinton - who explained the events to the audience so simply and clearly that he got sustained applause of gratitude. And a remark from Dave that we were still looking to him for presidential leadership.

Thanks so much for posting these, we need to remember, especially in these perilous days.
