You’d think nothing could top Rudy Giuliani’s noun-verb-9/11ism, but, via Ben Smith, that’s because you don’t pay enough attention to Rep. Peter King (R-N.Y.):

“You are saying someone should be held accountable. Name one other specific recommendation the president could implement right now to fix this,” host George Stephanopoulos said to King.
