They had an article on Rudy over at Wired.

Viral Video Shows What Giuliani Was Doing During Missed Debate

Yup, fundraising with Bo Derek and Dennis Miller for a measly $100,000 at the Santa Barbera Biltmore was more important than the debate in front of minority voters in Baltimore. This video has gone viral.

YouTube - Rudy skips minority debate to fundraise with Bo Derek

Looks like a new anti-Rudy site is the source and distro channel for a bunch of this stuff.

So, not only is he a liberal, but he’s a lying liberal.

In other words, Rudy lied.

At least he’s consistent!

Mayor Giuliani is committed to nurturing and empowering New York City's children. By creating the Administration for Children's Services, New York City now has an accountable, proactive and effective protector for our City's most vulnerable children that is recognized as a national model. Moreover, New York City is working everyday to find loving families for children requiring adoption. The City has completed a record number of adoptions since 1996 - more than 20,000 - marking a dramatic 65% increase over the previous six-year period. Mayor Giuliani has also been a leader in getting health insurance to children through the innovative HealthStat initiative, which uses computer technology to coordinate a citywide effort to enroll children in existing health insurance programs. To date, 96,000 eligible children and families have been given access to health insurance through the HealthStat initiative. These improvements have increased hope and opportunity for all New York City's children and laid the foundation for our City to be even stronger in the 21st century.

Those say nothing about promoting adoption OVER abortion.

He promoted adoption to get kids out of foster care, which is a good thing—but entirely different than what he has been touting.

Actually, the article implies that Giuliani never mentioned adoption during his tenure as New York City mayor, which is demonstrably false. You can read his State of the City address from 2001 where it is clearly mentioned. It also includes quite a few things that may explain his Republican appeal and why he is held in such contempt by liberals.

No. It implies no such thing.

It specifically talks about RELATIVE TO ABORTION.
