The way the GOP selfishly & cruelly held back money for the first responders & their health issues, & how Rudy's profession is constantly capitalizing on 911, - they both have a hell of a lot of nerve showing their faces at this station.

They think 6 lousy pizzas & a gaggle of camera toting reporters will sooth the collective memories & heartache these firefighters are facing every day?

They are just plain stupid.

I thought it that weird that Rom-knee would 'politicize' 9/11.....

Then I found out that Obama is in Afghanistan -

Romney just got PWNED again......

Pizza to a firehouse, or signing a treaty with Afghanistan.....hmm, choices, choices......

is because when the cameras were turned off, Romney handed the pizzas to an aide to take inside. No joke.

There is video of the girl shouting "You're a racist" and something worse after that. It was one sad presser, let me tell ya. This is only going to get worse. Poor baby.

13. Good point. And in Rmoney's view the firefighters are about equal to the pizza boxes....
