A video of then-Mayor Rudy Giuliani has been posted at YouTube with the following caption:
On June 23, 2000 [New York City Mayor] Rudy Giuliani tried to justifiy the gun industry lawsuit to a concerned citizen.
Giuliani claims that gun manufacturers overproduce firearms. Giuliani claims that most police officers are in favor of gun control. Giuliani claims that gun control reduced New York City crime. Giuliani blames the rest of the country for having lax gun laws which let people buy guns elsewhere and bring them into the city. Compare this to the claims currently being made on Giuliani's Presidential campaign website:
Rudy Giuliani is a strong supporter of the Second Amendment.
The simple fact is that the extremist gun control agenda coming out of New York City did not start with current Mayor Michael Bloomberg, and it is up to gun owners everywhere to make sure it does not end up in the White House in 2008.

"Darling, how can I fit a .32 in this?"
What gams!
I used to wonder why the anti-Rudy comments were so heated.
I don't wonder anymore.
Not even McPain has stooped this low.
That sounds like something Rosie would say.
How many times did he play dress up? I thought it was just that one time on SNL. He's pretty bizarro!
And it was towards the end of his mayorship, not some early 1990s blunder.
Except Rosie is a little more pro 2nd Amendment.
I highly doubt the gungrabbing scumbag will still be on the campaign trail come Labor day.
So...I guess we now know how to cook RINO...Would any RINO lovers like a piece of RINO pie?
At least when it comes to her bodyguard.
I'd gues he's more like a .22 short.
If they're doing something illegal then prosecute. Otherwise STFU.
No, he'll hang on. But he won't be the frontrunner, that's for sure.
Just one statement such as this should disqualify him from the GOP. Yet he has scores of equally stupid things he has said. All brushed aside by the Oprah republicans.
See, that's your problem: You guys aren't sophisticated enough to appreciate that urbane, avant garde, New York frame of mind as demonstrated in cross-dressing. Why, it's a hoot!
And abortion is "choice", the 2nd Amendment is outmoded, a relic of by-gone days, and intelligent people welcome the United States of NorthAmerica. (Of course we'll be paying the bills at first, as we now serve Mexico as its Dept. of Health, Education & Welfare)
And if you don't appreciate that you're an ignorant, stone-age, `fly-over', one-issue, unappeasable, red-neck conservative, just ask any of Julie Anna's supporters and they'll be glad to remind you.

After reading Rudy's BS, I kind of feel like applying my tagline to him.
Just a bunch of knuckledraggers we is.
Clinton and McCain calculated their statements. Neither could afford to sound like Maxine Waters. Rudy, being in a blue blue city was free to speak from the heart.
Oh, I'm sure it (tagline) applies.
