Somehow I feel that any arguments are useless in case of pure hatred.
Yes, Rudy’s calm TV presence was crucial leadership on 9/11. Going from mic to mic was exactly the right thing to do then.
Bush and Cheney were then hiding somewhere and Bush looked frightened and unsure when he finally emerged. During Katrina you had opportunity to see different kind of mayor showing his non-leadership.
As for taxes, this is another thing every conservative should thank Rudy. He slashed taxes and made the city business-friendly again. Yes, taxes are still higher than in most other cities (he wasn’t dictator, you know. City council is about 90-100% dem controlled).
Look newbie, if you think opposing Giuliani is based on hatred, you're no conservative and you're definitely on the wrong political forum.
Free Republic promotes conservative candidates, not liberal candidates. We promote the Constitution. Rooty has trampled on the Constitution for years and continues to do so.
FReepers have been making the case against Rooty for the last year and a half. Rooty is persona non grata around this forum. When you get some free time, check out this thread: Will FR embrace socialism to make way for Rudy Giuliani as a Republican presidential candidate?
What a load of crap!
Hey troll, what are you doing on a CONSERVATIVE site spreading LEFT-WING propaganda/revisionist history?
The LEADER of the FREE WORLD was following security protocals set up for our President, ANY U.S. President, by the security experts - the Secret Service.
“Bush and Cheney were then hiding somewhere and Bush looked frightened and unsure when he finally emerged. “
Even if you had a good argument in support of Rudy, you lost all credibility with your Bush bashing.
