I am reminded what a truly lousy mayor Rudy Giuilianni was. Rudy did perform well for about a week after 9/11, playing the heroic mayor for all to see. but other than that he is a disaster himself. - a philandering, cross dressing, mean-spirited thug who did nothing to protect New York against a terrorist attack.
He did nothing to correct the known weaknesses in the New York disaster response system, such as see to it that the police and fire radios worked and could communicate with each other. He was also stupid enough to insist, against the advice of all around him, to put the new Emergency Response Center in a building which had already been a target of terrorist attack, the World Trade Center.
Now the jerk is pulling a Cheney, claiming that if you don't vote for him there will be more terrorist attacks.
Giuliani warns of 'new 9/11' if Dems win Quote:
If any Republican is elected president - and I think obviously I would be the best at this - we will remain on offense and will anticipate what [the terrorists] will do and try to stop them before they do it, Giuliani said.
The former New York City mayor, currently leading in all national polls for the Republican nomination for president, said Tuesday night that America would ultimately defeat terrorism no matter which party gains the White House.
But the question is how long will it take and how many casualties will we have? Giuliani said. If we are on defense [with a Democratic president], we will have more losses and it will go on longer.
I listen a little to the Democrats and if one of them gets elected, we are going on defense, Giuliani continued. We will wave the white flag on Iraq. We will cut back on the Patriot Act, electronic surveillance, interrogation and we will be back to our pre-Sept. 11 attitude of defense.
He added: The Democrats do not understand the full nature and scope of the terrorist war against us.
