Rudy Giuliani's Team Forms Firefighters for Rudy"

    Yesterday I told you about Rudy Giuliani not being invited to the International Association of Fire Fighters get together with the candidates from both of the political parties due to the way he is perceived as having treated some of the firefighters after 9/11.

   Now it seems that after the first real bad press that Giuliani has had, a group calling itself "Firefighters for Rudy"  has sent letters to "Americas firefighters"  which was written by one Lee Ielpi who is claimed to be a retired firefighter.      Source

"There is no one who respects firefighters and first responders more than Rudy Giuliani," Ielpi writes. "Those of us who have worked with him know that Rudy Giuliani has always been a steadfast and unrelenting supporter of firefighters and first responders."

  As everyone else that knows about this is wondering, when was this group created and how many members are in it? My guess is that this group was just formed since the IAFF came out against Giuliani's treatment of the said firefighters.

   We'll see how Giuliani's people handle the rest of the bad press which is coming his way in the future.

Giuliani Popularity Leaves New Yorkers Wondering

    It would seem that many of the citizens of New York are wondering why Rudolph Giuliani is so popular with the voters outside of the city.

   Many residents are fond of the job that Giuliani did with 9/11 but they also remember the way he was before 9/11 came into being and they are wondering how Giuliani  will do on the world stage what with his brashness and hot temper.

"He was mean-spirited, he was harsh, but I'm not sure that hurts him on the Republican national stage," said former city councilman Stephen DiBrienza, a Democrat who calls Giuliani the "most divisive elected official in modern history."

"One can only hope that the arrogance of power he displayed and the abuse of process his administration often engaged in will not be mistaken for leadership," said DiBrienza, who now lectures on government at Baruch College in New York

   Mean-spirited and harsh? If that is the case, the Mr. Giuliani should fit right in with the Republican branch of incompetence. He may even get a new fan in Ann Coulter and that Rush character and maybe even that O'Reilly clown!
