The title is too flippant. The video is too powerful.
Behind me, a filled room of 9/11 first responders. And in front of me, a nearly empty Congress. Sick and dying, they brought themselves down here to speak — to no one.
It’s shameful.
I’m obviously biased as a New Yorker and a World Trade Center worker who went to too many funerals after 9/11, but watch at least one of these videos.
This is the full video (if you want to get the title reference)
