Totally different situation. There are geopolitical implications with the President of the United States having sex with a naive intern.
If some one were ask Rudy if he was going to take a mistress in White House, then I would say it would be fair game. However, I could care less if he had an adult mistress as mayor of New York.
Did Rudy lie about his relationship in a civil proceedings?, not that I am aware of.
There are many things with which I disagree with Rudy Guiliani and I would rather discuss those issues. Those issues are more important than who he had sex with 8 years ago.
This story isn't just about who Rudy had sex with 8 years ago. The most significant part of the story concerns the fact that Rudy was running up huge hotel and restaurant bills for police officers so that he could engage in illicit affairs.
Each time Rudy did that he made choices. Each time he chose to take such a trip when those hotel and restaurant expenses could have been avoided had he just stayed home at night with his family. And, each time he also chose to drag along a security detail of officers who incurred all those hotel and restaurant expenses. Each time he could have chosen to take the trip on his own without dragging all those police officers around.
The choices he made make it absolutely clear that Mayor Rudy thought it would be cool to stick it to the taxpayers. He just took all that money and used it for his own very personal purposes. And he's the guy who says he wants to go to Washington to get control of government spending?
This story isn't just about Rudy being a pervert. It's also about Rudy being a thief.
Nuanced spin that would make Clinton himself proud.
No. We fired executives that are messing around on the job. Rudy was busy with his latest fling rather than working to get his city working smoothly.
His track record says he would.
