Rudy Has the Runs Again...
AmericaBlog writing on Rudy's squeals against basic goose/gander fairness, again nails it.0 comments
Oh,Rudy, you're hurting me...
Rudy, now really.
Please, just SHUT UP!
Here's why...
All of your various issues are fair game (especially for us here in NYC who had to put up with your vicious crap for eight years!)
Partially because you worked so damned hard to keep any of it from ever being private. You are: The Public Mayor.
But mostly,
BECAUSE YOU'RE A RUNNER, RUDY!
You always run.
You ran away from reality when you married your cousin, Rudy. Then you ran away from her when some piece caught your eye. Nice trick getting the annulment after all that times. Who'd you get it from, the pedophile priest who works in your security consultancy today? Was there a deal there?
As U.S. Attorney, you ran away from getting convictions on all those cases you got all the big press conferences for when announcing the indictments. ("Honey, oh no! I left the conviction on the bus!!")
You ran away from your campaign promises within hours of first being sworn in as mayor, throwing the arts industry in NYC overboard as your first official act by cutting off all funding to non-Institutional Art Organizations, drying up the Arts scene in NYC for years to come.
You ran away from courage by ignoring the drug cartels who owned major sections of this city, and who slaughtered hundreds of opponents along with with scores of non-involved, civilian citizens, mostly children. Who'd YOU go after? The squeegee guys, who tried to wash car windows by the tunnels in order to survive another day without dying of hunger. Your internal constitution prostate had already malfunctioned by then.
You ran from the NYPD, who you used as a pawn to whip up hatred against blacks overall and Mayor David Dinkins, specifically. Remember your famous police march across the Bkln Bridge and the rally/riot you fomented at City Hall? You used those cops to get elected, then screwed them over on their pay every single chance you had.
You ran from becoming a competent manager by hiring good people, aligning them with all of the positive trends occurring across the country, then taking ALL the credit whenever things improved somewhat. (Really bad thing to do, Rudy, ask Bill Bratten, LAPD or Mary Jo White, former U.S. Attorney for Manhattan.)
You ran from your marital vows by reportedly screwing your communications director on your desk downstairs, while your family slept upstairs.
Rudy, you ran from sanity when you built your emergency command center in a bullseye, despite official recommendations against it, simply because you could walk to it from work, so that you could have a lovenest with the new goummah, the aspirin salesgirl.
You ran from basic human decency when you hired Raoul Felder to slash and burn NYC's First Lady, Donna Hanover, on the front pages of the NY Post. Just because she called you on your crap, and wouldn't just slink away without a dime, and let you back up the truck of hookers so the party could begin.
You ran from credulity when you filled the pages of the NY Post every day with a scolding tongue lashing for NYers on how we should all be leading a much more virtuous, decorous life. All while sliming your family in the papers and bouncing on the aspirin salesgirl. One of your high points, there, Rudy.
You ran from fiscal honesty when you had one full, 24-hr. on-duty police guard detail, on the taxpayer dime, for the city's First Lady and your kids as stipulated in the City Charter, while you had a second, exact same detail, again on the taxpayer's dime, outside the aspirin salesgirl's apartment house, so she wouldn't be hassled by reporters, and you could slip in and out (I guess) without notice. You ran from ever paying any of that detail money back to the Treasury of the City of New York.
Then, your greatest run...
YOU RAN AWAY FROM YOUR POST DURING THE DEADLIEST DAY IN THE HISTORY OF NEW YORK CITY, LEAVING HUNDREDS TO DIE THROUGH YOUR COWARDICE AND INABILITY TO PERFORM YOUR DUTIES PROPERLY.
Those great pictures showing you striding the streets of Gotham Under Attack, that the mouthbreathers love so much, we in NYC know are really showing you running like the gutless coward you are, fleeing to save your own damn ass. And not only did YOU leave your post, causing the deaths of untold NYers, right behind you in those pictures is Bernie "The Most Corrupt Cop in NY?" Kerik, who also had abandoned his post as the top police official to run around town with you, to act as your personal bodyguard. Who, pray, was running the NYPD actions if the Commish was hauling ass with you? You panicked and ran, Rudy. Yeah, you're quite the security expert. All you know about the subject is, the first sign of trouble, you want a security detail around you. Nice.
With all these ghosts running faster than you could ever hope to, Rudy, how can your past—that you worked so very hard to earn—ever be off limits?
No matter where you run, there they'll be. Waiting for you.
Ghosts do that.
