Rudy, while Kerry was working to stop terrorist banks what were YOU doing?
Edited on Mon Aug-30-04 07:18 PM by blm
Weren't you a US attorney then working with the Reagan administration?

Were you one of the GOP operatives working to keep Kerry's investigations of BCCI and IranContra from seeing the light of day?

You want to see real contrast, Rudy?

Contrast: Kerry worked to shut down terrorist banks while Bush did deals
with them.

Bush made big money off Salem Bin Laden while Kerry's efforts put Bin Laden under arrest.

Kerry was working against terrorism while the Reagan and Bush administrations and all the Bush cronies dealing with the dirty banks worked to thwart Kerry's efforts. And Kerry was working against terrorism LONG before Giuliani OR any other bushmoonie ever mentioned the word terrorism.

1. He was much too busy womanizing
He surely did treat his wife and family shabbily. He's so trashy!

2. I would really like to see where Rudy gets off saying
Kerry can't be trusted on terror.

I don't trust RUDY on terrorism because he was probably one of the GOP attorneys working to STOP Kerry's investigations into the funding of terrorism in BCCI and IranContra.

Rudy sure didn't support the 9-11 investigations, either, did he? He sided with Bush OVER the victims of 9-11.

4. Just as a true warrior must avoid military service, a true adherent of
family values must arrange for his mistress to live in with his wife and kids.

6. I think there is something even more sinister about Giuliani's past.
His work as US Attorney for Reagan/Bush administration. Administrations that sworked hard to prevent John Kerry's investigations into the funding of terrorism at BCCI and in IranContra.

8. Rudy's "morality"
The ReSUCKplican's party's "hero" is the clown who threw his wife out of the bed room to have sex with his mistress.

But that type of behavior is nothing new to those scoundrels:

By Selling Very Public Image, the Private Giuliani Prospers

New York Times (www.nytimes.com)

February 22, 2004
RUDY INC.
By Selling Very Public Image, the Private Giuliani Prospers
By ERIC LIPTON

When the manufacturer of the drug OxyContin — a top-selling prescription painkiller that was proving lethal in a ballooning black market — needed to tackle its growing legal and public relations problems, it hired a former mayor of New York best known for his formidable public safety credentials, Rudolph W. Giuliani. Only months later, the Department of Justice, the cabinet agency charged with combating drug crimes and abuse, including traffic in OxyContin, also turned to Mr. Giuliani, a former federal prosecutor, and the consulting firm he had set up with a dozen of his aides.

The dual contracts only hint at Mr. Giuliani's remarkable success in building a business empire since leaving City Hall in December 2001. In its two years of existence, his firm, Giuliani Partners, has earned tens of millions of dollars by assembling an extremely broad range of clients, jumping almost immediately into the ranks of the nation's most prestigious consulting firms, according to two industry guides.

A detailed examination of its business practices shows that the firm's work for its 20 or so clients — with at least two on different sides of the same issue — stretches well beyond providing advice on policing and domestic security, the type of job that has produced the most publicity for Giuliani Partners.

The firm, which opened in January 2002 in affiliation with Ernst & Young, the global accounting firm, is clearly and without apology driven by the stature Mr. Giuliani gained in commanding the New York City Police Department and in guiding the city after the World Trade Center attack. It is sustained by the advice Mr. Giuliani and his partners offer in appearances they make around the nation and the world, warning audiences that more attacks are almost certainly on the way. Such predictions, of course, benefit both the former mayor's firm and the clients he has retained, many of them involved in selling terrorism preparedness products.

5. Anything on his US Attorney days?
Was he helping Reagan and Bush administrations cover up their abetting of terrorists and their funding by their cronies around the world?

9. I remember him doing a ridiculous photo-op of a drug bust
in the late 80's. He was there with the cops in his own bullet proof vest.
It was obviously intended as a PR move to help set up his mayoral aspirations.
It was pretty transparent.
He was effective in those matters- a very good law and order type prosecutor.
Could he have run interference for Reagan? Maybe, but I doubt he would do so knowingly. His drug work did get him into international connections for sure.
