Giuliani Campaign Has Freelancers Hauled Away by Police for Asking Tough Questions

Giuliani Campaign Has Freelancers Hauled Away by Police for Asking Tough Questions: "Giuliani Campaign Has Freelancers Hauled Away by Police for Asking Tough Questions
Last night at a 'meet the press' event, away from the debate stage, campaign operatives for Giuliani had the State Police haul away two freelancers for asking tough questions that the Giulani campaign could not answer.

Reporters were asking the grey-haired man that you can see in this YouTube video, various questions about Giuliani's unfamiliarity with the 9/11 Commission Final Report and the 'blowback' hypothesis, among other things. (click on the YouTube link for a first-hand view of the questioning and confrontatation.)

The first amateur freelancer was asking about Giuliani's contradicting stories about getting prior warning of the first building collapse on 9/11. On 9/11, Giuliani clearly said to Peter Jennings that he was warned that the building was about to 'collapse'.

Last week, when confronted by a relative of one of the firefighters who was killed on 9/11, Giuliani had a completely different story to tell;


'I didn't realize the towers would collapse.' He later added, 'No one that I know of had any idea they would implode. That was a complete surprise.'


Bullshit, Mr. Giuliani. Bullshit. It sure would have been nice to have passed on your prior warning to every firefighter in those Towers, but there was a problem, wasn't there? Just ask Sally Regenhard, who also lost a firefighter on 9/11. Her website, the Skyscraper Safety Campaign, has several articles documenting the non-functional emergency radios that the first responders were stuck with on 9/11. Or you could ask Rosaleen Tallon, who also lost a firefighter that day;"
