Rudy Giuliani Is An Ass

  Anyone who pays attention to the politics of the United states knows that Giuliani is nothing but an asshole, and a very good one at that. He's also one to put his money making above his job, as has been pointed out as of late with his getting fired from the Baker Commission for not showing up to do his job. I guess that he's more into ass-kissing and brown-nosing those big time donors than he is in doing what he was elected to do while being the mayor of NYC.

Kagro X over at Daily Kos has a rather insightful look at Mr.( ? ) Giuliani and his priorities.

How much of a prick is Rudy Giuliani?

How much of a prick is Rudy Giuliani? So much that he basically got fired from the Iraq Study Group by James Baker because he never went to any of the meetings.

And where was he instead? Cashing in on his 9/11 celebrity, giving motivational speeches for an organization called Life Win, Inc., which puts on "Get Motivated" (!) seminars all over the country.

You know the drill. Big stage show. Big music. Big lights. Big name celeb tells you to reach for your dreams. Big charge on your credit card.

How big? Big enough to pay Rudy a hundred grand per appearance (he did two while he was supposed to be at ISG meetings).

You know, for a war we got into (and an occupation we continue -- maybe for 50 years) because people like Giuliani told America Iraq was connected to the World Trade Center attack, you'd think the decent thing for Giuliani to do would be to drop his 9/11 grave robbing for a while and see what he could contribute to getting us the hell out of this mess. But then, Giuliani probably knew it was a lie right from the beginning, just like the rest of us.

Either way, I guess we have our answer as to what he can contribute: nothing. So that's what he did.

Keep that in mind, Republican America, next time Giuliani tells some swooning crowd how he felt the 9/11 attacks so much more deeply than the rest of us because he was mayor of the town that blew up because George Bush didn't read his PDBs. Rudy Giuliani has made his millions picking the pockets of the 9/11 dead.

And you just know this guy has the balls to tell crowds that he "felt a calling" to run for president, too. That wasn't God calling, Rudy. That was Baker, asking why your deadbeat ass wasn't showing up for work.

Guess that settles the "Who truly wears the mantle of George W. Bush" question, though, doesn't it?

Tony Snow Describing Al Qaeda or The Bush Regime?

  Just browsing through the transcript of the White House press briefing from Tuesday and I ran across this  little piece of the question and answer session.

Q Let me just finish up, if I can. In Afghanistan -- you probably saw this video that was obtained by ABC, which was apparently suicide bombers. What does that say about what we've done in Afghanistan?

MR. SNOW: Well, first, we're looking at it. At this point, we don't have a definitive thing. It's not clear exactly what they're claiming, but we're reviewing it. But look, it's typical al Qaeda propaganda. Al Qaeda is also good at slick propaganda that encourages people to go out and blow themselves up. Notice that the leaders don't make that effort; instead what they do is they pick younger people and they send them off to die. They are good at manipulating the press. (  my emphasis ) They will continue to do what they can to try to destabilize that government. Again, it fits into what I was talking about, is the forces of radicalism and extremism.

  If you hadn't have read the beginning of this, you would think that this was someone talking about our fearless fighter pilot up in the White House, so far as leaders would be concerned. Replace al Qaeda with the White House and then there is no difference.

   Have you ever noticed how al Qaeda and the Bush administration are like evil twins. They both do the same thing only al Qaeda are terrorist and the Bush company uses mercenaries for its dirty work while our troops are stuck in the middle.
