Bush visits New York again |
2001-10-04 |
On his second visit to New York since the 11 September attacks, President Bush found his strong line on terrorism is winning him support in a city once hostile to his views, writes BBC News Online's Ryan Dilley in New York. George Bush may feel more at home in Midland, Texas, than on the streets of the Big Apple - perhaps concluding that his Southern charm plays better to those in what he calls "America's heartland" than to the urban sophisticates of New York. However, the 11 September terror attack has changed New York's political landscape, just as it wrought such horrible change on the city's skyline. In his second visit here since the World Trade Center tragedy, President Bush is being heartily welcomed by some New Yorkers once inclined to despair of their leader. |
