If 911 Widows are opportunists - what does that make John McCain?
After all - he parlayed his horrendous experience as a POW into a lifetime political career. What a crybaby.

Just like Bob Dole - disabled war veteran AND cancer survivor (not to mention being married to Liddy) - a three-fer, but do we have to keep hearing about it?

And let's not forget that whiny Elie Wiesel. Holocaust survivors are SO ungrateful.

And we'd all be a hell of a lot better off if Frederick Douglass, Booker T. Washington and Harriet Tubman had just kept their traps shut - they should have just taken their 40 acres and a mule and gotten the hell out of everyone's face.

14. Here's one
Edited on Thu Jun-08-06 11:05 PM by DesertRat

Widow of co-pilot killed in 9-11 attacks describes her support for Bush’s re-election.
The tragedy that befell her family on that terrible day, she said, is at the "heart of why I’m voting for George Bush," whom she characterized as a man of "character, courage and compassion." :puke:

15. The happy widow Jacqueline Kennedy
was so thrilled with her husband's death that she said:

"We should all do something to right the wrongs that we see and not just complain about them."

18. Opportunism shouldn't be a positive or a negative.
Bush is an opportunistic fascist. The 911 widows took the opportunity provided to them by personal tragedy to point that out.
