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.

    @verelse proves my point...

    >one blames whitey...<

    Dude, if you have problems with reading comprehension, you really should get that taken care of before you try to talk with the grownups. Anyone who followed Giuliani's record knows he was racist scum. Just a look at how he handled the Dorismond and Louima killings (by denying, distorting, and--in Dorismond's case--trying to defame) was proof enough. He gave the NYPD free reign to treat black men and teenagers like crap--a problem the city is still suffering from today. And we won't even get into how he routinely shut out African-American city politicians and groups from having fair imput into issues that affected _their_ communities. Just because you don't follow the news, or have drunk the Kool-Aid...or just can't handle facts doesn't make the latter go away.
