No wonder all those grieving families that hit the news circuit the day
after the ads were released were ALL spouting the same rhetoric.

Full editorial:
<http://www.nypost.com/postopinion/editorial/20231.htm>

"Leading the rhetorical charge has been an outfit called September 11th
Families for Peaceful Tomorrows - which, the group admits, has only a few
dozen members and represents relatives of no more than 1 percent of the 9/11
victims."

"Little surprise there - because Peaceful Tomorrows' parent group, the San
Francisco-based Tides Foundation, has received millions from foundations
controlled by Kerry's heiress wife, Teresa Heinz Kerry. "
