As I transcribed elsewhere, all the Dims were there today. McStain, Gilmore and Duncan Hunter were the only Republicans.

Duncan Hunter was the only Republican that made a real connection with the audience according to union president Schaitberger.

Rudy Giuliani will be flying in tonight for a $2300/plate fundraiser. A 'group of firefighters' are invited to attend free.

Fine for Rudy... I don't mind a tussle with a union.

With apologies to the Beatles

"Come together right now, vote Rudy"

Here come the mayor, he will, walk on my water
He got, liberal genomes, he's a RINO savior.
He got his something round the GOP.
One thing you can count on is his mo-ral-ity?


He dress like Marilyn, he got, moles and falsies
He's so, homo-friendly, likes to, stop them babies.
He say "I know ways, to make you free"
First you take you pistols and just give them to me.

Come together, right now, vote Rudy

He's mucho macho, He own, all of the City .
He has, love of millions, his heart's, pseudo plastic.
He's the neo-neo right, of Bill's Hillary.
Just stare into the Kool aid until you can believe.

Come together right now, vote Rudy

He's a racehorse winner, he can, beat up the lady.
He's not, spawned of Satan, he is, all pro Israel
He stood in rubble, saw him on the TV.
To hell with values son it's Gu-li-ani

Come together right now, vote Rudy

They also contend that his administration mishandled the development of a radio system that could have saved lives on 9/11 and that he blundered in putting the city's emergency command center in the trade center.

"America's Mayor"

Geez.....the Jihaddis had already hit the WTC once!.....and there was plenty of grumbling about the 9-11 communications immediately after 9-11 that seemed to go away pretty quick in early 2002.

It's been a long time since I heard that song.

Are you sure those are the real lyrics?

But without a comprehensive assessment of risks and vulnerabilities, the American people have no assurance that homeland security resources are being deployed for maximum benefit. We elect our leaders to make these tough decisions. They owe us their best analysis and judgment as to where we deploy scarce resources to secure our homeland.
• Provide reliable radio spectrum for emergency responders.
The commission's report documented the unreliability of communications systems available to first responders. The radio frequencies dedicated to New York public-safety agencies were overloaded by the hundreds of police and fire personnel converging on the World Trade Center on Sept. 11, 2001, and were too weak to penetrate the many floors of the towers above. Those failures led to the unnecessary loss of many lives.

Sure...that's them. ;)

"Is this Rudy?"

Nope... but I'm not so blinded by 'Rudy' hatred that I disagree with everything that he does.

So far I don't see a candidate that meets all my requirements or (in my view) has what it takes to win the general election.

I haven't come close to declaring whom I think meets most of my top requirements.

.......firefighters and police officers who know Giuliani best, those in New York City, have mixed views of him, ranging from admiration to outright hostility. That has filtered through to leaders of their national associations accusing Giuliani of trying to cut short the effort to find victims' remains in the trade center wreckage. They also contend that his administration mishandled the development of a radio system that could have saved lives on 9/11, and that he blundered in putting the city's emergency command center in the trade center.......

Sonofagun, RINO idols have feet of clay.

I'll never forget the firefighter protest. There were people there in tears in front of cameras demanding that they be allowed to find their brothers.

[sgtbono2002]

It was a waste of time for Republicans to be there anyway. Shitberger already knows who he will back, My bet is Hillary Clinton. He has a track record for picking losers

The IAFF is a left-leaning organization that supported John Francois Kerry in 2004.

Guess some of them have forgotten that when Hillie was booed at that 9-11 event, one of her flacks referred to the first responders doing the booing as drunks.

[George W. Bush]

Not so. Schaitberger and the union backed Kerry in '04 but the NYC Local publicly and vocally backed Bush in '04. Yet, they still seem to have real venom for Rudy who the Juliebots insist is their hero. So Duncan Hunter might get some votes from them. Schaitberger was just as positive toward Duncan as he was to any of the Dims.

Ronald Reagan also managed to pick up blue-collar union people in his landslides. Duncan's ability to appeal to them should not be dismissed so lightly.

[bluecollarman]

I don't have Rudy hatred. I just don't "feel the love".

"So far I don't see a candidate that meets all my requirements or (in my view) has what it takes to win the general election."

What do you think about Thompson?
