The fanatical Giuliani haters on FR have been posting a lot of out of context statements made by him in an attempt to smear him.

"Giuliani 'not confident' war will turn around." is a perfect example.

Whats being deliberately left out the rest of Rudy's remarks:

"I'm confident that we have to try to make a turnaround, and we just can't walk out, and that it is critical to us that things get to the point in Iraq that we have some degree of stability and not the way they are now," Giuliani continued. "Because if we leave it the way it is now and we run out, then we're going to face further difficulties in the future."

This headline is an outrageous attempt to mislead people. This NY Slimes article is another example of this tactic. I respect people who oppose Giuliani and who do so in an honorable manner. Posting misleading statements that are taken out of context is underhanded and dishonorable.

It is interesting to note that the excerpt does not provide any actual quotes from Giuliani.

Yes...after he said the following.

"'I'm not confident it's all going to turn around,' Giuliani told CNN's 'Larry King Live.' 'Who knows that? I mean, you never know that in the middle of the war.'"
