Giuliani: How he became mega-rich

Rudy Giuliani is an opportunist. Nothing more. Nothing less.

Famously loyal, Giuliani chose as his partners longtime associates, including a former police commissioner later convicted of corruption, a former FBI executive who admitted taking artifacts from Ground Zero and a former Roman Catholic priest accused of covering up sexual abuse in the church.

NEWSFLASH: Rudy Giuliani was mayor of New York City on 9/11

...and George Bush was president. For anyone to suggest that 9/11 happened because Democrats are weak on terrorism, I say this:

Rudy Giuliani and Bernie Kerik

Rudy Giuliani will be facing some harsh criticism of his support of Bernie Kerik and his failure to remember being briefed about Kerik's ties to organized crime. It goes something like this:

1. Giuliani hires Kerik as NYC police chief
2. Giuliani recommends Kerik for Department of Homeland Security chief
3. Kerik withdraws his name from consideration due to an unseemly extra-marital affair he was having
4. Kerik pleads guilty to crime involving him and the aforementioned company with ties to the mob
   

Somewhere before #1, Giuliani was briefed about Kerik's ties to organized crime, but he "forgot." Then he hired Kerik to be New York City's top cop. These guys never learn. It all eventually catches up to them -- this filth, the lies, the deception, the "forgetfulness."

Despicable. I hope these stories come out about these louses. They do not deserve consideration for high public office.

Rudy Giuliani tied to Venezuelan president Hugo Chavez

Former New York City Mayor, and hopeful 2008 presidential candidate, Rudy Giuliani, is a little deeper in the doo now that it's been found that his law firm has been in bed with oil producer Citgo, which is controlled by Hugo Chavez, the outspoken Venezuelan president and Bush critic.

Oh, Rudy, won't you ever learn? You aren't meant to run this country. You could barely run New York City.

Wildly Wrong: Beaver spotted in New York for first time in 200 years

I find this revelation impossible to believe. I know that Paris Hilton and Britney Spears have both been in NYC at least in the last couple of years. This is bad and old news.

Rudy Giuliani -- Lots of baggage -- don't think he'll run after this

I think Rudy Giuliani ought to bow out of the presidential race before he bows in. This report, surfaced by The Smoking Gun, airs a lot of Giuliani's dirty laundry prior to his successful mayoral run for New York.

Apparently, he had married his second cousin, which is just weird. I've heard of kissing cousins, but only in the movies, and they only ever just kissed. Rudy, while he doesn't talk about this marriage, which he had annulled after 14 or so years (nobody knows), has never said that they never consummated the marriage, so one must assume that he did the freaky thingy with his cousin, which is seriously freakish.

If that's not bad enough, he has lots of vulnerabilities. He's flipped from Democrat to Republican, pro-life to pro-choice, there's evidence he's been anti-gay rights, and he dodged the draft.

So all his "heroics" aside, he's vulnerable in the primaries and, if he wins, he loses big time if the Dems exploit his weaknesses as called out in the linked report.

Enjoy. It's quite a read. Get the barf bag.
