No one in this world is 100% perfect. We can only vote for the party's candidate who comes the closest. Kerry was the nearest to perfection that the Dems could come up with. It will mean Hillary is the closest if she is nominated. All candidates have a skeleton or two hidden in their closet. In Bush's case it was a traffic ticket for DWI at 20?, (ooooooooooh), and an AWOL charge that you knew was BS, if you had served any time in the NG or Reserves. (And knew the ET proceedures.) The Dems are worried about Guliani even though he is a RINO. They are afraid he will bring people out to vote and take away a good percentage of the minority vote they depend on.

Somehow I get the impression this Hillary person doesn't like Rudy.

That is funny. I like him. He says what he thinks. I'm still not voting for him but I like him.

Hillary Nelson is the pen name for Hillary Clinton. Nelson is an actual leftist.

almost pathological. His attempt to cut funding for a Brooklyn art museum after it showed artwork he deemed offensive is perhaps the best known such incident.

Yeah, Christ's mother covered in dung is no big deal.

Being offended by that is real evidence of pathology!

"His relentless on-camera stoicism in the first hours after the Trade Center collapsed - when our president looked like a deer caught in the headlights and the vice president was nowhere to be seen - calmed a terrified nation."

????? - Parallel universe?

Giuliani was having none of it, calling ferrets wild animals like tigers.


Sheesh Rudy, that is soooo gay.


I guess Rudy thinks Central Park is 'The Great Outdoors'.

Supposedly an article about Giuliani but the author could not esist throwing in a completely unrelated, unnecesary, and untrue barb against the President.

Yet another victim of BDS. I hope there is a cure someday, because if there isn't, who will these morons pick to vent their anger against after he is gone from office?

Maybe their little tiny brains will swell up and their heads will explode.

That was a no win. If he had got up and rushed out, he would have been labeled as panicking. I really don't think we have a man (or woman) in Washington that could have done a better job on terrorism these last 5 years.

He had a dreadful relationship with the black community, exacerbated by his stubborn support for the NYPD in the wake of police scandals involving the beating and sodomizing of a male prisoner

"Support"?

The perp was dismissed from the force, tried, convicted, and is serving time.

The Mayor rightly said this crime was not representative of the force.

And it's very revealing that Sharpton and Maddox put the victim up to perjury by having him say that the cop who sodomized him said, "Get used to it, it's Giuliani time" - which was later revealed to be a lie, but consistent with the pathological hatred of the left for the next President of the United States.

I really don't care much whether Rudy dressed in drag (as a gag, at a public fundraiser). I have plenty of other reasons to be skeptical of his candidacy, and bringing up superficial ones like that, or making fun of his name ("Julie Annie"), just makes his more intelligent detractors seem silly themselves.

Was it the Virgin Mary covered in dung or was it a Crucifix submerged in a jar of urine? The left wing slime are so marvelously creative that I cannot keep up with the sheer volume of their amazing creative works.

BTW, why hasn't the author posted a link to what he deems "a rant" and further claims included the Mayor "going ballistic"?

HUH?! Our President was at a elementary school reading to students there. What the hell was he supposed to do? This characterization that somehow Bush showed weakness is pure BS!

The President was supposed to jump up and say, "Children, the country is under attack from terrorists. Hide under your desks, while I go to Washington immediately because I can't make any decisions or look like a leader unless I'm there waiting for a plane to fall out of the sky on top of me."

Rudy Giuliani

1989- "I've said that I'll uphold a woman's right of choice, that I will fund abortion so that a poor woman is not deprived of a right that others can exercise, and that I would oppose going back to a day in which abortions were illegal." Phil Donahue Show

I'm pro-choice. I'm pro-gay rights,Giuliani said. He was then asked whether he supports a ban on what critics call partial-birth abortions. "No, I have not supported that, and I don't see my position on that changing," he responded." -- CNN.com, "Inside Politics" Dec 2, 1999

Rudy Giuliani is a proponent of gun control who supported the Brady Bill and the Assault Weapon Ban

His thoughts on the gay-marriage amendment? "I don't think you should run a campaign on this issue," he told the Daily News earlier this month. "I think it would be a mistake for anybody to run a campaign on it -- the Democrats, the president, or anybody else."

"Rudy Giuliani came out yesterday against President Bush's call for a ban on gay marriage.

The former mayor, who Vice President Cheney joked the other night is after his job, vigorously defended the President on his post-9/11 leadership but made clear he disagrees with Bush's proposal to rewrite the Constitution to outlaw gays and lesbians from tying the knot."I don't think it's ripe for decision at this point," he said on NBC's "Meet the Press.""I certainly wouldn't support [a ban] at this time," added Giuliani..."

When Congress enacted immigration reform laws that forbade local governments from barring employees from cooperating with the INS, Mayor Rudy Giuliani filed suit against the feds in 1997. He was rebuffed by two lower courts, which ruled that the sanctuary order amounted to special treatment for illegal aliens and were nothing more than an unlawful effort to flaunt federal enforcement efforts against illegal aliens. In January 2000, the Supreme Court rejected his appeal, but Giuliani vowed to ignore the law.

Mr. Rockefeller represented "a tradition in the Republican Party I've worked hard to re-kindle - the Rockefeller, Javits, Lefkowitz tradition." -- Rudy Giuliani, New York Times, July 9, 1992

"Shortly before his last-minute endorsement of Bob Dole in the 1996 presidential election, [Giuliani] told the Post's Jack Newfield that "most of Clinton's policies are very similar to most of mine." The Daily News quoted [Giuliani] as saying that March: "Whether you talk about President Clinton, Senator Dole.... The country would be in very good hands in the hands of any of that group."

Revealing at one point that he was "open" to the idea of endorsing Clinton, he explained: "When I ran for mayor both times, '89 and '93, I promised people that I would be, if not bipartisan, at least open to the possibility of supporting Democrats." -- Rudy - An Investigative Biography of Rudolph Giuliani, Wayne Barrett, Page 459

"... revelations about his high-handed, autocratic mayoral style will certainly scare off lovers of free speech, freedom of the press and civil liberties."

Sounds like this column could have been ghost written by Nancy Pelosi or Dennis Kucinich.

I'm still undecided, but stuff like this does not run me away from Rudy... Anyway, I HATE ferrets!

The blindness of the "Stop Giuliani with anything we can get our hands on" crowd is now laughable.

This article should be a boost of Giuliani for Republicans.

It rightfully dismisses the drag costume as a proof of secure machismo and then blames Giuliani for being what Conservatives are supposed to love.

Anti Black civil rights- which in truth really means he took no crap from Al Sharpton and his gangs.
Pro police
Anti MSM
Anti religiously profane art

And, by example here, intolerant of politically correct animal rights groups supporting ferrets. An impeachable offense if there ever was one.

If Giuliani was less then popular towards the end of his term, it's because he made all the right (and the Right's) enemies.

Thanks. I listened to it. Rudy has fine, and not ranting. He was calm. Some abusive caller called in, and after making an ass of himself, Rudy cut him off, and said he needed a therapist to help him with his weasel obsession, that he did not mean to insult the guy, but he was just being honest with him that he needed help. LOL. Rudy was just doing his New York City moxie thing.

The bottom line from listening to it, is that there is nothing on it, that raises any concern on my part about Rudy's temperamental fitness to be president.

] And there you have it.
