Final DI Column: Rudy Giuliani is a Fearmongering Hack, and He’s Going Down

Rudy for president? Sure, if you want an arrogant fool whose failure to safeguard his city prior to 9/11 caused needless additional first responder deaths. But keep casting those stones!

dood,
that was a really weak article.
i read it pooping,
and wasn’t sure whether to use the newpaper, or the toilet paper for whipping.
thankfully, i have perfect release on my dookie, and the splash acted as a bidet, so that i could avoid the environmentally hateful act of whiping. Zero ply! take that sheryl crow.
the reason i disliked your article is two fold. Fold the first: you said that no one could question Guiliani’s heroic conduct in bringing NYC together after 9.11. Obviously you are not from NYC like I am, and obviously you were not there. Also, you must not talk to people who were there, or do any 9.11 related research. Guiliani is hated by most of NYC, for lying about air quality(when he had reports of dangerous toxic levels in the air on his desk), and allowing all the real heroes of 9.11 (the rescue teams) to die because of exposure to toxins. The NY courts have just ruled that the Executive is free to “allocate risks” in such emergency scenarios, even if it involves deception.

Prong the second: you are right to attack Guiliani for his scaremongering, but geez…have you noticed that every other candidate does the same? Obama and Hillary are in full agreement with Cheney’s Statcomm provisions, which call for an automatic attack on Iran if another 9.11 esq terrorist attack is made against the US. McCain is even more adamant about attacking Iran. Even though the Head of the IAEA says that the US is lying about Iran’s nuclear ambitions, capacities, and evidence thereof.

lastly, any commentary on 9.11 is highly questionable if the person commenting has not read the 9.11 commission or the NIST report. Your article suggests ignorance over many key issues and elements of 9.11, such that it seems impossible that you have read either reports.
Boheme is harsh, but you would be too if the Lord gave you a penis with loop-di-loos.

furthermore,
of course Guiliani is “going down.”
everyone connected to intel (like the befouler) knows hillary is a lock.
she has a.i.g., choicepoint, bechtel, and most importantly, the bilderbergers and lynn forrester rothschild.
if you do not know that ‘00 and ‘04 (as well as most every general election since Ike) were stolen, then you have not been paying attention.
The military industrial complex will steal ‘08, and their choice is Hillary.
Obama is merely a decoy candidate completely run and financed by the Clinton camp. And he is not even doing a good enough job, because Edwards in likely to come in second in all of the first four primaries: iowa, nevada, s.c., and delaware. Obama has a chance to take Missouri in the 5th primary, but he may be off the map, or Hillary’s VP by then.

Hmmm. What did I get wrong in quoting the 9/11 Commission and Fire Dept. Commissioner Plaugher? Those seem like pretty solid sources to me. No comment on your penis or on the inevitability of a Hillary Clinton presidency. The latter gets me far more excited.

I’m just happy that you spelled “Giuliani” correctly…it’s so hard to keep the ‘i’ and the ‘u’ straight.
