And it seems that it is his only choice of costume. If it were only a matter of play acting, why does he only choose women's outfits. The Rudy machine would surely have other pictures or video clips out there if they did in fact exist.
Rudy did an ok job for NYC but his record on major issues nails that he is not a conservative by any means. What's sad is that a conservative site can't contain the discussion on issues this early in the pre-election positioning. To demand that we adhere to a candidate selected by the mass media is the height of stupidity...
In his time as mayor, he performed, IN COSTUME, at the INNER CIRCLE dinners, dressed as the beast, from BEAUTY AND THE BEAST, a Harley riding ( yes, he rode one onto the stage ), black leather wearing gang-banger, and as other male attired characters. But ONLY Rudy in female attire pictures get posted to FR and without attribution or explanation.
The explanations, posted by people here who know what those pictures are from, get ignored; so too do the posts regarding the history of such shows and benefits, which go back to colonial America.
Posters from all over this country have posted about how their husbands, sons, priests, and fathers have also dressed up as women for charity. The ONLY people here, who go on and on and on about this, are the people who are against Rudy and are trying to muddy the water. This started with the very first thread posted to FR, about Rudy talking about entering the GOP presidential primary, last year.
This isn't "a matter of play acting"; it is in the nature of dressing up to raise money for charities. Many mayors and governors and lawyers and priests and ministers and rabbis and high school football players do this every single year. This sort of thing is older than the formation United States of America; yes, it was done in many of the original 13 colonies.
What's sad, is that the Rudy Haters here use far lefty, LIBERAL papers' articles, stuff from extreme lefty blogs, and garbage from other lefty outposts with which to smear Rudy with.
