The Real Heroes: Point/Counterpoint Edition

Posted on August 7, 2007 by David

According to a cleverly-titled conservative blog, this mundane quote can be attributed–at some unspecified time and place–to the Dubs:

“As I have met the heroes, hugged the families, and looked into the tired faces of rescuers, I have stood in awe of the American people.”

Meet Jeremy Hernandez, new reluctant media darling who apparently has a scholarship offer after helping pull the campers out of the bus in the MSP bridge disaster:

Mr. Hernandez was not available to comment on the offer; Ms. Schwartz said he left town for northern Minnesota late on Friday, overwhelmed by the attention and concerned that his co-workers were being overlooked. He spent the weekend fishing. When President Bush’s staff contacted him to request a photo opportunity, “He was just, like, ‘Nope,’ ” she said.

God bless you Mr. Hernandez.
