Thank you! Last night across the Northeast, first responders were running toward the sounds of chaos, risking their lives to save ours.
“Fewer of me” hits Romney on Massachusetts record after he says he doesn’t want more teachers, firefighters, and police officers.
Mitt Romney responded to the Obama campaign’s attack that he would cut jobs for teachers and firefighters this morning saying those issues are decided at the local level and that the line was “completely absurd.”
At the very moment you’ve written off humanity, something like this comes along. The Fire Department in Detroit pull two unconscious dogs out of a burning house, and one selfless firefighter resuscitates them with his own oxygen tank and mask.

In his first trip to New York following the death of Osama bin Laden, here are photos of President Obama meeting with the first responders of September 11th. He’s seen here with firefighters at Engine 54, Ladder 4, Battalion 9 and with police officers at the First Precinct. And that’s indeed Rudy Giuliani with him. It’s nice to see everyone putting politics aside, at least for a few days. View List ›
