  • Guliani repeating the big lie

    He says we didn't choose this war (Iraq); they attacked us on Sept. 11. Still repeating the big neo-con lie. This was the most pre-emptive, elective war in history. Lke the starlet who gets a nose job and then claims it was for a breathing problem, not for looks. Give me an effing break.

  • Ugh.

    Is this what we have to look forward to in a Giuliani Campaign? More 9/11 equals Iraq and all of the world's "bad guys" are the same?

    Rudy, try to show you're a loyal Republican a year before the primaries and you'll lose any 9/11 goodwill you earned with Democrats and Independents.

    And that goodwill is ALL you've got going for you. What have you done for us lately?

  • Republicans are too stupid to tell different Muslims apart

    "We're at war. And we're at war because they're at war with us. I mean, sometimes, when you listen to these debates in Congress, and you listen to the politicians debating, you sort of get the impression that they think we're in control of whether we're at war or not. It doesn't matter what we think. They're at war with us. They want to come here and kill us. And they did on September 11, and they did a long time before September 11."

    Iraq is at war with us because we attacked Iraq. Iraq did not attack us on 911. Not one of the 911 attackers was from Iraq. Asshole.

    "They" are al-Qeida, not Iraq. Fucking idiot.

    We lost almost 3,000 Americans on 911, Iraq looses that many civilians every month, Fucking stupid goddamn Republican moron.

    Iraq didn't even have weapons to attack us with, you mindless, selfish child.

    Republicans got us into this war with Iraq with the help of cowardly Democrats. This has been chosen by Republicans, forced by Republicans, and handled by Republicans, you stupid, tiny, little speck of a human stain, fucking nimrod!

    If there is a hell, every single Republican voter has a special place waiting for them there.

  • You learned NOTHING from 1993

    "Way back in 1993, they came to this city and killed people."

    Yes, Rudy, they did. And then you decided -- against the advice of seasoned security personnel -- to put the city's emergency nerve center in the World Trade Center, the only building that had been bombed in New York in that century.

    You knew better than the experts. You ignored the facts. Well, guess what? We've had a President like that for quite a while now, and we don't want another.

    If you want to continue to capitalize on 9/11 -- before which you were an unpopular despot that the city couldn't wait to get rid of -- then do it the way you've been doing it, on your own time -- as a multimillion-dollar consulant and speechmaker. Don't drag the country into it.

    I managed to survive both your terms as mayor. That was quite enough. Seeing you move on to the Presidency would be like watching the hideous, incompetent, egomaniacal boss you worked for, and whom you've since escaped, buy the whole company.

  • E

    You nailed it. Your language is appropriate, in fact too soft, for what the republicans have done. I hope that the chickens are finally coming home to roost, but given the fact that almost a third of the country still supports bush, and almost half voted for republicans in the last election, that may be wishful thinking...

  • Where's Osama?

    Well, if we are at war with them because they attacked us - how come no one is looking for Osama bin Laden? I think he's driving a cab in Brooklyn!

  • It's Giuliani time!

    Just think how much worse Abu Ghraib would have been with plunger handles...

  • Here comes the Cavalry.
