I have never understood what Rudy did after 9/11 that was so heroic.
All I saw him do was to get his face in front of a camera a lot, and tell some Saudi to take his 10 million and stuff it.
Hardly heroic IMO.
Some of you Rudy supporters want to let me know why I should think this guy is great?
I’m not being sarcastic, I really DO want to know what people think about this.
The notion going around here seems to be that the only reason anyone likes Giuliani is because he was "heroic after 9/11". I'm with you, I don't understand what he did that was so "heroic".
But the notion that this is the only reason anyone likes Giuliani, or his only (supposed) accomplishment, is a complete straw-man.
I reckon a lot of people like Rudy Giuliani for his accomplishments as the Mayor of New York: cleaning up the city, reducing crime, etc. One could even go back further to his days as a mob-fighter.
Ironically, this "9/11 hero" business seems to have made people forget that he did have actual accomplishments.
