Rudy Runs Again, just like he did on September 11th

Giuliani confirms he’s running in 2008

While Bush was busy exploiting 9/11 to get what would become the biggest gain in rating polls for a sitting president, the Mayor of New York City was doing the same. Rudolph Giuliani who broke every promise he ever made while in office and whose own ratings were in the danger zone, used 9/11 as a springboard for million-dollar book deals and lectures. His popularity soared and he wore the name “hero” as if it were really true. Here was a politician running away from the scene of terrorist attacks yelling “let’s head uptown,” and yet he’s called a hero? For what? Rallying the people of New York after a terrorist attack? That’s not enough to be called a hero. The real heroes were the ones heading in the opposite direction as the mayor. The real heroes were the ones who climbed those steps and tried to rescue people from the burning towers. The brave New York City fire fighters and police officers, they were the heroes. I would like to see someone try and justify Rudolph Giuliani’s exploitation of 9/11. I would. I really am curious.

Rudy Giuliani Is Not a Hero. Repeat After Me.
When you place the command and control center so close to the World Trade Center that the new $50 million facility was destroyed in the attacks, and you are the one responsible for the FDNY having inoperable Motorola radios (how many people would have been saved if the firefighters could have actually heard the orders to evacuate?) and then, despite the fact that almost 3,000 of your constituents died, you fought against the formation of the 9/11 Commission, just as President Bush did, you are not a hero. You are a hypocrite.
