Rudy's Baaaaaack!


Some demons you just can't kill. Rudy on the radio?

This will give me an opportunity to drag out and dust off my Rudy Giuliani Voodoo Doll.

Catch the video at the bottom at the story. Rudy hasn't changed a bit from this, other than the facelift. Pencil in any other topic you'd like, and this is exactly how Rudy will deal with the State or the country if we ever let this madman near the reins of power again on any level.

Honest dissent? "Oh, you're simply unstable, and you should see a psychiatrist, because I can't help you."

Don't like my tax plan? "I don't know what to tell you, you're deranged, and you should see a psychiatrist, because I can't help you."

It's always amazing how Rudy truly embraces those big concepts—like the fact that there's a world that exists just on the other side of his skin.

But look at the upside to Rudy being on the radio—lots and lots of eternal clips like this one, to use against him in any election he's foolish enough to enter.

As soon as he puts that exploratory committee together, yum, all Rudy clips, all the time...

Hey, Bernie's back, too!

No, not Williams, the esteemed former CF for the New York Yankees, but that scoundrel Kerik. You know, that old Rudy minion who his former boss famously egged George W Bush on to nominate as head of Homeland Security, despite Kerik being not only woefully unqualified for the post, but the proud owner of a shady and corrupt resume, including alleged dealings with Rudy's greatest foes, NYC organized crime.

The heart of the federal case [against Kerik] includes allegations that a construction company suspected of having ties to the Mafia paid for renovations at Mr. Kerik’s home in the Bronx in the hope that he would help the company obtain a city license.

Mr. Kerik also faces charges that he failed to disclose a $250,000 loan financed by an unnamed Israeli businessman, and failed to report more than $500,000 in income beginning in 1999, including three years when he was the city’s correction commissioner, then police commissioner.

Here's a calculator to help you get a clearer picture of just how you'd make out under Obama's tax plan, rather than just extending the Bush tax cuts which is all that McCain is proposing.




Stop the heartbreak of catalog glut.
