What lies are those? You seem assume I love Giuliani's abortion and gay rights views. I do not agree with him on those issues. I am not a Rudy for President supporter. I appreciate what he did as my Mayor to improve the quality of life in this city. I'm not only a free thinker, I'm also a believer in truth. You, buy a clue!
Took you a while to get to that one. LOL!

However, I DO give him credit for running an efficient city and helping reduce crime. As you said, that is a fact, and it is ridiculous to dispute that.
On the other hand, crime almost always declines when the economy gets better (in NY, in most cities, and in the country as a whole) as the economy improves, unemployment decreases and jobs availability rises. That too is a fact. During Rudy's time in office, this country experienced one of the biggest economic booms in world history (if not the very biggest as the stock market soared to heights unimaginable a few year earlier). That, too contributed to the reduction in crime--and the economic resources to fight crime (not only in NY, but again, in the entire country as a whole).
So although I salute Rudy's efforts in reducing crime--I do not 'swoon and faint' (like many of his apologists do) at the mere mention of crime reduction during his time in office. Let's keep things in perspective here.
