Does Giuliani have a brain?

Giuliani was there in New York on Sept. 11th 2001. The twin towers really were struck by terrorists. Nearly 3000 fellow U.S. citizens really did loose there lives.

Guiliani really was tested. Would you rather swallow the political fluff presented to you on a daily bases or hear from someone willing to face reality?

Would you care to elaborate on "he was tested"?

"lose" not "loose"

Giuliani is dull as hell

oh and he's a narc to boot... that guy can kiss my black ass

Fear-mongering would also include all that global warming doomsday rhetoric, would it not?

That bombast belongs right alongside all the similar end-of-civilization predictions made by "top scientists" (roll eyes) during the 1930s. The story might deserve slightly more press than the one about the impending world takeover by our grey alien overlords now that too many Earthlings have found out about the face on Mars.

The WTC attacks were tangible, immediate and had a relatively easily identifiable source. Global warming is a potential problem, but its true origins aren't quite as easy to pin down and so far the alarmists haven't actually proposed a possible solution. At least there was a swift response to the WTC attacks as opposed to a decade-long hissy fit. All the climate change hype basically amounts to little more than a call to run through the streets screaming and flapping arms in panic.

He is seriously a caricature of a candidate. Do Republicans understand ANYTHING but fear-mongering?

Giuliani To Run For President Of 9/11

February 21, 2007 | Issue 43•08

NEW YORK—At a well-attended rally in front of his new Ground Zero headquarters Monday, former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani officially announced his plan to run for president of 9/11.

"My fellow citizens of 9/11, today I will make you a promise," said Giuliani during his 18-minute announcement speech in front of a charred and torn American flag. "As president of 9/11, I will usher in a bold new 9/11 for all."

If elected, Giuliani would inherit the duties of current 9/11 President George W. Bush, including making grim facial expressions, seeing the world's conflicts in terms of good and evil, and carrying a bullhorn at all state functions.

"Let us all remember how we felt on that day, with the world watching our every move, waiting on our every word," said Giuliani, flanked by several firefighters, ex-New York Police Commissioner Bernard Kerik, and Judith Nathan, his third wife. "With a campaign built on traditional 9/11 values, and with the help of every citizen who believes in the 9/11 dream, I want to make 9/11 great again."

According to Washington–based political analyst Gregory Hammond, Giuliani's candidacy "should not be underestimated."

"Sure, he has no foreign or national policy experience, and both his personal life and political career are riddled with scandal," said Hammond. "But in the key area of having been on TV on 9/11, the other candidates simply cannot match him. And as we saw in 2004, that's what matters most to voters in this post-9/11 world."

After his downtown Manhattan announcement, Giuliani held an afternoon rally near the Pentagon. In the early evening, he flew to a field outside Shanksville, Pennsylvania, where he hosted a $5,000-a-plate fundraising dinner in a tent decorated with clouds of ash, streaming sheets of singed office paper, and small piles of authentic rubble from the World Trade Center site.

Among the policy planks listed on his website are his Cleaner Air Act, which would severely limit the levels of smoke and harmful gases allowed to pour from 747s flying into 110-story office buildings, guaranteed health insurance covering burns caused by shards of burning metal, and his "No Child Left Behind In A Smoldering Skyscraper" initiative.

Giuliani supporters praised the candidate for his "early and unwavering commitment" to 9/11.

"People talk about Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama, but did either of them happen to be mayor of New York in September 2001?" Bedford, NH resident Helen Rolfe said. "Guiliani was. To me, that speaks volumes about this man."

Though his campaign apparatus is not yet fully operational, Giuliani's "mobile campaign units"—refurbished fire trucks decorated with banners, balloons, and bloodstains, whose droning sirens continuously blare Giuliani's official campaign song—have already begun canvassing towns in Iowa and New Hampshire.

Giuliani's pro-9/11 message seems to be resonating with potential voters. Said Ames, IA voter Alan Benoit: "I remember seeing Rudolph Giuliani's face, on television, saying reassuring things during a highly emotional moment filled with fear and confusion. He's got my vote."

With more than a year until the primaries—unless Giuliani's court-filed request to hold New York's primary on the second Tuesday in September is approved—Giuliani said it is too early to discuss potential running mates, though he refused to rule out the possibility of naming a twisted, half-melted aluminum beam, an FDNY ball cap, or even John McCain. Giuliani, however, called rumors that he had met with a large shard of glass from the wreckage of the Pentagon "patently untrue."

"Letting 9/11 fall into the hands of the Democrats in 2008 would be nothing short of a national tragedy," Giuliani said. "Ever since 9/11 was founded that fateful day on 9/11, 9/11 has stood for one thing: 9/11."

Right, "terrorists." A far less nebulous prospect than global warming. Why did Giuliani blame an aide for moving the Response Center to WTC7, only to have the aide provide documents showing he SPECIFICALLY warned AGAINST doing that? Because he is a liar.

Re: my previous response. Giuliani ignored the Aide's advice and then blamed it on the aide, in case my pronouns got confusing.

What else do you call those who create terror?

Ohhhhh, riiight, it was an "inside job." I keep forgetting.

I don't care about his flings, or his misplaced loyalty to Keric, his gay lisp, & his being a Yankees fan.

The U.S. president should be someone who can act decisively in a crises situation. Yes, mistakes will be made but to me adapting your approach and learning from difficult situations are admirable traits in a leader.

Guiliani will do well in Florida. It is not a bad strategy to let the other candidates beat themselves up until the public is sick of them. That is when Rudy will reassert himself.

The Holy Bible says homosexuality is a sin. Giulaini, Keric and 1/2 the New York Police and New York Fire staff are gays. That may be fine with New Yorkers, but in the South, the Holy Bible is our guide.

Somewhere deep inside of an American President is a heart, a compassion for his fellow man, Rudy don't have none.

Was that the day his girlfriend found out his wife knew about his mistress?

I care more about making good decisions, like NOT locating your command center in the WTC -- the most visible and likely terrorist target. Why did he choose that location? To have a convenient location to f his mistress.

Or another great decision -- police and firefighters used different radios and couldn't talk to each other that day.

And how was he "decisive" on 9/11? What did he do that was so great besides walking around in the rubble and hogging attention? The only reason he looked good is because Bush freaked out and went into hiding.

The city did not fall into chaos. People did not panic and worked together. Looting and rioting did not break out. This and of itself is success.

If you have a way to measure how much heart someone has then you will no doubt be receiving your nobel peace prize ant day now.

Jesus Christ, according to the Holy Bible, says that we should understand and love our enemies. I don't believe we're seeing much of that these days.

Yes he does, the question is: do YOU?
