[George W. Bush]

It's you people who are disrepecting Reagan, who, after all, brought Rudy into his adminstration.

One of thousands of appointees. Do you have any evidence that Reagan even knew Giuliani before he appointed him? My expectation is that Meese was looking for an anti-mob DA to take on the New York mafia. Rudy and staff repaid him by being very disloyal to Meese. He spent most of his time at DOJ using it as a springboard to return to NYC and to further his own political career. Check out Mark Levin on this.
