After 9/11, Rudy wasn't a rescue worker -- he was a Yankee

Giuliani said he spent as much time at ground zero as many rescue workers. Where was he really? Much of the time, at baseball games.

    why does spending a lot of

    extra time at the 9/11 rescue site qualify a politician to be president? After one or two inspirational visits, get the hell out of the way. More than that is just self promotion-and the article shows how Rudy turned that into $millions for him and his minions. Now he's trying to turn it into being president. To me, in the midwest, thats a sign of low charactor and untrustworthiness, to put it mildly and politely.
