Just another empty suit
According to CNN's Jeff Greenfield, all Rudy Giuliani needs to do to snag the 2008 Republican presidential nomination is holler "9/11!" loudly and often.
Maybe not.
As pointed out by “Grand Illusion: The Untold Story of Rudy Giuliani and 9/11,” (HarperCollins), by investigative reporters Dan Collins and Wayne Barrett -
Who made the dumb decision to put the New York City emergency command center in the World Trade Center, knowing full well it had been attacked several years earlier?
You guessed it - our man Rudy.
Who resisted changes in the interagency protocols that contributed so tragically to the mass confusion of the day?
You guessed it - our man Rudy.
Who neglected to have the fire department's radios repaired and/or reconfigured, even though the fire department had been begging for it for more than ten years?
You guessed it - our man Rudy.
Who didn't bother to increase the number of police detectives assigned to the FBI's Joint Terrorism Task Force before he left office?
You guessed it - our man Rudy.
The list goes on and on and on.
This man has made a career out of his image on that dreadful day.
The last thing the United States needs is another all hat-no cattle president.
