Questions are being raised over Republican presidential candidate Rudy Giuliani's policy on terrorism, after a report revealed he has strong ties to two foreign investment consortia working to own or lease U.S. toll roads, including the Trans-Texas Corridor 35, which is identified as part of the I-35 "NAFTA Superhighway."

Amazing how this doesn’t get picked up in the MSM.
The MSM wants a nice, soft candidate that Hillary can crush. Rudy's the one who best fits the bill - she's already driven him out of one race.
Thank you for the links.
I will be glad when this election is over.

EXCERPT Giuliani (is) perhaps the only politician on the national scene more ruthless, unprincipled and power-mad than Clinton. Remember when he tried to have the New York Legislature declare martial law after 9/11 so that he could stay in power indefinitely?
There’s a reason for the Mussolini comparisons.
What the media call Giuliani’s “unconventional” personal life certainly contradicts the party’s support for family values. He had his marriage to his first wife annulled after 14 years after he claimed to discover that they were actually second cousins rather than third cousins.
As the Washington Monthly reported, “Giuliani informed his second wife, Donna Hanover, of his intention to seek a separation in a 2000 press conference.
The announcement was precipitated by a tabloid frenzy after Giuliani marched with his then-mistress, Judith Nathan, in New York’s St. Patrick’s Day parade, an acknowledgement of infidelity so audacious that Daily News columnist Jim Dwyer compared it with ‘groping in the window at Macy’s.’”
The worst thing about Rudy: his love of government power. He showed it as a prosecutor, as he hauled supposed white-collar wrongdoers out of their Wall Street offices in handcuffs in front of the TV cameras, and as mayor as he defended even the most egregious abuses of police power, used his power to crack down on trivial offenses (jumping subway turnstiles, jaywalking, loitering).
He constantly exploits 9/11 and his role in it and has earned tens of millions of dollars giving speeches about that fateful day.
This Giuliani quotation, from a 1994 speech, sums up his philosophy: “Freedom is about authority. Freedom is about the willingness of every single human being to cede to lawful authority a great deal of discretion about what you do and how you do it.” —SNIP—
