He is not a cross-dresser, he had some fun at 2 fund-raisers. So what? Some here carry intolerance to an extreme.
Gee! Anyone think they may have seen his drag pictures here?
More important that he'll quash Al Queda in a minute.
If anything, his 'stunts' at these events show that:
He is a good sport, and
He has keen political sense that self-deprecating humor is a great thing in a politician, and
He is anything but a 'stuffed shirt' and a man comfortable with who he is...
You know, I'm not Rudy supporter, but the level of discourse (on both the 'pro-' AND 'anti-' sides) could really use some work.
Rudy in full drag would be a tougher POTUS than all the other candidates of both parties combined (except for Tancredo) :)
This is really petty. If you are more worried about a candidate having fun wearing drag at a fundraiser than you are about how he will handle the War on Terror then you have got your priorities really screwed up.
Imagine these photos on large placards on "the Arab street" for the next eight years...
Symbolism is non an inconsequential matter in mass communications, or in the recruitment of new terrorists.
What better visual "proof" could they possibly have of the decadence of the West...than actual photos of a male President of the United States dressed as Dolly Parton.
If some have their way, our only choice next year will be which liberal New York politician needs a hairdresser in the White House.
and marched right along with the NAMBLA banner that was also proudly on display.

Brief history of the modern childlove movement
I've noticed that some Freepers seem to be obsessed with these pictures.
As I've said before, this was done for a fund raiser, as a joke. Rudy is one of the least likely persons to be a cross dresser or a metrosexual that I can think of. He has a strong enough sense of his own manliness that he can do something like that without worrying about it.
Whisper? More like running in circles and shrieking.
You have to be a one-issue voter to vote for Rudy. As far as I can tell, the only thing he's strong on is national defense.
I'm not a Rudy supporter (in the primaries at least) but this sort of attack is silly.
The guy has a Milton Berle sense of humor, which frankly is a plus in my book. At least he's not a self-important popinjay like Edwards or an empty suit like Obama or a snarling Bolshevik harpy like Hillary-- none of whom are known for their talents for self-deprecation and all of whom would benefit if they were to develop one. Then again, Rudy's not a social conservative either, which should be our main message about him during this primary season. He's hugely accomplished, very smart, and his leadership skills are superb, but IMHO there are better Republican candidates to nominate (see my tagline)... but not because Giuliani's done some rather funny send-ups of himself in drag.
He makes an ugly woman, but still a damn sight better than Hillary.
One thing I like about Rudy: there's nothing the Democrats can do to destroy him. By the time the conventions roll around, everyone in America will know that Rudy had a nasty divorce and dressed in drag on national television. The Deomocrats will have no dirty tricks left!
By the way, Duncan Hunter would make a great VP candidate if Rudy is nominated.
