RUDY HARD-PRESSED TO DEFEND GAL PAL'S SECURITY (irrational Rooty dodges compelling questions)

There are very few legitimate comparisons which can be made between Senator Clinton and Mayor Giuliani.

Just imagine how differently things would have turned out in New York had Senator Clinton had been mayor during and post 9/11. Correct me if I am wrong. But didn't Senator Clinton say she was bewildered and confused when the hostage crisis was taking place at her campaign headquarters in New Hampshire? I don't wish to be too tough on you, but I think you need to give the matter a lot more careful thought. If your point is that Mayor Rudy Giuliani is not a hard core conservatie, I can accepts that. But he is clearly a man of sterling character compared to some of the other choices we Republicans have right now. And he has my support.

There are very few legitimate comparisons which can be made between Senator Clinton and Mayor Giuliani.

The list below proves he has many comparisons to Socialist Clinton.

Okay. I was wrong. And I thank you for providing me with this material. Notwithstanding, I still believe Mayor Giuliani is a billion times better than Senator Clinton in terms of ability to lead well and with a good end result.

Don't get brainwashed.

After reading that list, I’m definately withdrawing my support of Rudy. I just watched the MSNBC debate and I must say that I was impressed by Ron Paul and Allen Keyes!

At this point, I doubt it is even remotely possible that I could become brainwashed against Rudy. But I do thank you for that admonition. What I would like to do is find a list of the difference between Mayor Giuliani and every other liberal candidate, especially those on the Democratic side of the political spectrum. If I cannot find one, maybe I I will be able to find some time to put one together. But under no circumstances will I withdraw my support for Mayor Giuliani during these perilous times. And I appreciated your admonition.
