The Real Rudy
Newsweek ^ | 3/4/07 | Susannah Meadows, Mark Hosenball, Michael Isikoff, Eve Conant, Sarah Childress, Andrew Romano and Jo

Rudy Giuliani had been speaking for six minutes before anyone in the audience thought to clap, which was exactly the way he wanted it. Talking to a political crowd in North Spartanburg, S.C., last month, the former New York City mayor and 2008 presidential candidate was not there to excite but to warn; he was less interested in making political promises than he was in sketching out the perils we face. He spoke in the hushed tones of the day that marked him for history, September 11, 2001, his voice barely filling the somber setting—not a hotel ballroom or a church basement, but a firehouse, festooned with American flags.

You people are utterly amazing. There wouldn't be any pictures posted if Giuliani had never donned women's apparel, wigs and makeup in the first place!

It was for a charity event! And now you are looking for an excuse as to why FR is now considered a Tranny site? You are blaming it on Rudy? He did that for charity you guys posted his picture to say he was a Tranny. Now you have succeeded in convincing people that FR is into trannys.

They must figure with the posting of all those pictures, the posters love to see men wearing women's clothes. What a way to be known on the Net now!

I don't care what it was for, Giuliani made a decision to dress up in drag, he realized pictures would be taken and he knew they wouldn't just 'go away'.
And for accuracy's sake, he did it after being urged and coaxed by his homosexual friend and ex-roomie.

Now it is Rudy's fault that the pictures were posted? ROFLOL! The Rudy haters had to spam every thread with the pictures even though they were told it was for charity and now it backfired and is all over the net about the haters!

Way to go -- blame Rudy instead of the posters! I wouldn't let my kids get by with that lame excuse!

Rudy Giuliani is the MM choice for Republican candidate and I am sure MSM would love a Giuliani presidency. Most of the Democrats won't be too unhappy with him either. If they have to lose it is much better to lose to Giuliani.

Ok I will play your little game of top this...Yeah, and the asterisk is going to win the primaries!!!!

Game? Do you think this is a game? I exposed lies. I will continue to do so.

We weren't discussing who is winning in the primaries. You got a chrystal ball? Duncan Hunter won't win, he won't have a chance if lies about him go unchallenged. That is my point and regardless of who ever you're pulling for, the fact that there is a concerted campaign to try to destroy a candidate with lies and rumor and misinformation ought to bother ANY American. Even Guiliani supporters .

I'll promise you this. If I see anyone LYING about Rudy, I'll call them on it. Can you say the same?

And if you're going to try to change the subject again, don't bother me.

Yes; I've been told all the trolls and formerly banned freepers are being let back in as long as they hate Rudy.

Whoever told you that probably lied. But there you go again, RUMORS. Got a link for that RUMOR?

I 'heard'

I've been 'told'

LOL

And I wasn't banned. So I guess that makes me a 'troll'. Better than a RINO!

Yes, you bother me when you change the subject as a diversion yet AGAIN.

Now, do you want to talk about the fact that misinformation on Duncan Hunter is on this thread? If not, don't bother me.

I think there is something to that. Rudy kinda transcends parties. For some people thats a really bad thing. Me? maybe it would be good if we had a prez that most of the country liked. The last time that happened was prolly under Reagan.

Actually I think you need to take a break from this thread and go see what Opie is doing. You know Andy doesn't like him wandering off alone, Mayberry is a dangerous place... and stop pinging me!!!
