This has already been posted, and it was later found out that Deroy was hitting the crack pipe when he wrote it.

Liberals and the MSM sure want far left wingers for POTUS of both parties.

[Prysson]

Rudy doesnt have a prayer of winning the primary..maybe if he had been a vp he would probably be able to win the primary..but not an open presidency.

[dollar_dog]

If you think Clinton has skeletons in his closet, wait til you get a load of Rudy!

Ask him how his cousin/first wife is doing.

[Dark Skies]

This is what we need in a leader in the "war against islamofascism"...

As mayor, Giuliani had then-PLO leader Yasser Arafat ejected from an October 1995 Lincoln Center concert to which he was not invited. “Maybe we should wake people up to the way this terrorist is being romanticized,” Giuliani said.

[Michael Goldsberry]

I'd hate to see either get the nomination, but I'd have to take Rudy over McCain if it came to that.

Ask him how his cousin/first wife is doing.

Second cousin and childhood sweetheart.

It isn't about liking everything about Rudy or any other candidate, it's about winning the next Presidential election and keeping this country on course. Consider the alternative.

Second cousin and childhood sweetheart.

Oh. That's much less creepy.

[Jake The Goose]

That's funny...

[conservative in nyc]

Marrying your FIRST cousin is legal in the state of New York.... And to think we make fun of the folks in West Virginia, where it's not.

FDR and Eleanor Roosevelt were second cousins, by the way.

[familyop]

No, no, Rudy needs rest for a few years. He also needs to collect those benefits, as per the long-standing tradition. That's how so many of the descendents of 1800s immigrants blackmailed...er, worked their way into law, teaching and other government jobs.

Well, these Rudy threads can get a little heated up, so I thought a bit o'levity would be nice for a change.

jla - Bringing conservatives and Republicans together

[Stonewall Jackson]

I love sitting back and watching these Rudy threads. Half of the posts are pro, half are con, and most are just plain Crazy!!!

[George W. Bush]

Left the city in more debt than when he started, divorced three times (as recently as a few years ago), ugly divorces involving adultery, pro-gay marriage, pro-abortion, pro-partial birth abortion, supported Cuomo over Pataki (disloyalty), made New York a haven for illegals, etc.

This is never going to fly in the South or some of the conservative states in the west. Rudy is guaranteed to lose several southern states, giving us President Hillary.

To many ordinary Republicans, they can't see any difference between Rudy and Hillary. Other than Guiliani talks tough on terrorism but has had no foreign policy experience.

Why doesn't he run as a Democrat? It would be more honest.

[jla]

...most are just plain Crazy!!!

Yes, well you have to understand that a person can't be rowing with both oars in the water if they're supporters of Rudolph G.
