Hillary 'Exploits' 9/11

Where's the outrage?

Hillary Clinton's new healthcare ad includes the line, "She stood by Ground Zero workers who sacrificed their health after so many sacrificed their lives." It includes dramatic black and white photos of rescue workers, and one of her wearing a surgical mask, presumably at the site. As Marc Ambinder notes, this is the first ad of the election season to use 9/11 imagery.

If Rudy Giuliani had done it, the media elite would be in an uproar, denouncing him as exploiting the tragedy for political gain.

What do you think, will Hillary get the same treatment?
