Congressional Confidential: America's Mayor Not America's Candidate
Join former United States Senate Pages Dylan and Ethan Ris as they bring you the dish on not just the presidential race but all the exciting triumphs and disgraces inside, outside, and below the Beltway!
Catching Up With A Loser! The single most important event of George W. Bush's presidency was the terrorist attack of September 11, 2001. And so it seemed obvious that Bush's successor in the White House should be the greatest celebrity to rise from that dark day, the face that graced TV news screens for months afterward, the man who became virtually synonymous with 9/11... Osama bin Laden.
Unfortunately, the Turbaned One was not a U.S. citizen, and therefore ineligible for the presidency. So the task fell to this week's entry in our Presidential Loser Series, Rudy Giuliani (R-NY)!
Giuliani's resume was without equal in the Republican field. Namely, he:
* Happened to be mayor of New York on September 11, 2001.
* Was on TV many times during and after September 11, 2001.
* Ran campaign ads featuring images of firefighters -- most of whom apparently hate him -- dating from September 11, 2001.
* Tried to illegally extend his term, citing the events of September 11, 2001.
* Dispatched the NYPD to escort his mistress and future third wife, Judith Nathan, on interstate trips, citing the yet-to-occur events of September 11, 2001.
* Earned millions of dollars giving speeches about September 11, 2001.

LAST COMMENT:
xfctr, are you insane? giuliani would not be president today. one because the election hasn't happened yet. two becaue he is batshit crazy and sucked as nyc mayor. my sister has lived there for 9 years and said that everyone there hated him until 9/11 happened and now they hate him again. and i happen to trust her more than some right wing commenter who still thinks its 1951.
