NEW YORK - Republican vice presidential nominee Sarah Palin toured a visitors center dedicated to those who lost their lives in the Sept. 11 attacks. She nodded her head several times and said, "Oh, my goodness," while viewing pictures of the burning World Trade Center. She also viewed exhibits that highlighted the moments that hijacked planes struck each tower, listened to a taped emergency call from that day, and several times touched a bronze memorial that honors the 343 firefighters who died in the attacks.
Palin said she wished all Americans and all world leaders could visit the site.
You need to read 9/11 Revisited, toots!
Also yesterday, Palin received an extension of the deadline for revealing her personal finances, until the day after her only scheduled debate with Democrat Joe Biden. The federal financial disclosure report was initially due Monday, but the Federal Election Commission granted a four-day reprieve until next Friday, the day after her debate in St. Louis with Biden, the Democratic vice presidential nominee.
How CONVENIENT, huh?
