I really fail to see why these folks are "offended" about this (or if they actually are). I think this is an entirely politically motivated attack. Bush is highlighting the fact that he and his supporters think he's done an excellent job as President following the 9/11 attacks.

That's not what I was saying. What I was saying is that the families of victims believe he is profiting/benefiting from a tragedy.
While it is a firefighters job to save lives and put out fires...and yes they are tragedies, a figherfighter doesn't go around showing pictures of the people he saved to prove to employers that he's a good figherfighter. These are two different things.
This is kind of like when people were trying to sell mugs and t-shirts with victims vaces on and their familes protested. Because they felt these retailers/sellers/manufactures were trying to profit of the death of their loved one not preserve their memory.
And yes it is a pollitically motivated attack. This is politics afterall.
