Watch this

With a big caveat. First, get some kleenex.

This film was made in the days following 9/11/2001. At the time, we thought that Giuliani had performed well. And he did on the day. There have been many missteps since. He had also made many decisions previous to this that are regrettable but we did not know it then. We only knew we were all Americans.

There is also a big thank you to Bush at the end of this film. Bush has proved to be empty of the compassion and resolve that we hoped he had. I cannot endorse the text at the end of this. But the photos and music are incredibly moving. So here goes.

Watch this.

My thoughts on this day later.
