Why should Rudy Giuliani be president?

Jim said...

BLITZER: How much longer will U.S. taxpayers have to shell out $2 billion a week or $3 billion a week as some now are suggesting the cost is going to endure? The loss in blood, the Americans who are killed every month, how much longer do you think this commitment, this military commitment is going to require?

BOEHNER: I think General Petraeus outlined it pretty clearly. We’re making success. We need to firm up those successes. We need to continue our effort here because, Wolf, long term, the investment that we’re making today will be a small price if we’re able to stop al Qaeda here, if we’re able to stabilize the Middle East, it’s not only going to be a small price for the near future, but think about the future for our kids and their kids.


So why hasn't anyone here repudiated the statement by Boehner. It's outrageous!

And by the way, does anybody here actually believe that stopping al Qaeda in Iraq will have any significant impact on terrorism world-wide?

The Game said...

BOEHNER is correct...
Rudy should be president if he gets the nomination because he has shown how effective he is at cleaning up a city, he handled our greatest tragedy very well and I believe he will never run away from the war on terror...
and I don't want Govt run health care, ID's for illegal immigrants, higher taxes for more failed socialism...which is what we would get from Hillary

Jim said...

I handled our greatest tragedy very well, too! And you should have seen my garden before I cleaned it up. Should I be president?

Jim said...

3,700+ killed and 25,000+ wounded is a small price?

Why do you hate the military?

The Game said...

Jim is displaying a very serious case of crazy liberal mental disorder:

Number one:
I handled our greatest tragedy very well, too! And you should have seen my garden before I cleaned it up. Should I be president?

You should be ashamed of yourself for comparing Rudi in the middle of New York City after the worst terrorist attack in our history to whatever the hell you are talking about. Shows your lack of understanding and inability to measure the significance of events.

Number two:
3,700+ killed and 25,000+ wounded is a small price?

Why do you hate the military?

Jim, Why do YOU hate the military? Jim is saying that anyone who thinks that soldiers die in military combat hates the military. You have no clue what the people in the military sign up for, you have no idea what they are used for, you have no ability to comprehend what they are doing for you and your country. YOUR un-American leaders obviously hate the military. From Murtha wrongly accusing soldiers of cold blooded murder to Kerry making up stories about soldier wrong-doing for over 40 years, liberals obviously hate the military. You don't support the troops, liberals have never supported the troops. You are the ones who spit on the soldiers after Vietnam. You are the ones who called them baby killers. It continues today, and you should be ashamed of yourself.

Game?

I LIVE HERE, and I've already explained patiently that he did not in reality "clean" ANYTHING up in any more substantial way than his predecessors really did...he was simply skilled at playing revolving-door justice and shipping undesirables to OTHER PARTS OF THE STATE, where working-class oldtimers in dying industrial areas are unlikely or unwilling to complain.

Game, he shipped the GARBAGE (I'm talking literal, as in landfill) out to the Midwest! All these little maneuvers served to drive the middle-class out of the city, because he raised property taxes to unprecedented levels.

Game, you will not find ONE NYPD, FDNY voter...his CORE CONSTITUENCY at the outset...who will vote for him in the primary. Game, do you understand what this means? This is LAW ENFORCEMENT on his HOME TURF, and it's notable to add that nine out of ten of those mooks quack neocon...

"...he handled our greatest tragedy very well..."

No, it was not OUR tragedy, or YOUR tragedy...it was New York's tragedy. Did you attend funerals of any 9/11 victims? Did you clean that goddamned dust and asbestos and breathe in the smoke and pull yourself up by your bootstraps and force yourself to survive, for your wife, your children, and your family, when everything and everyone around you had taken leave of your senses?

Did you light candles and pray and cry and scream to the Lord Above for deliverance from your own common rage, grief, and pain, and wake up, months later, in your moonlit bedroom on a frigid February midnight, wondering if it was possible YOUR OWN GOVERNMENT had a hand in the carnage, unresolved misery, and hatred that had enveloped YOUR city?

Did you watch children stare stoically while big, tough grown men dropped to their knees and bawled like babies? Because they HAD TO?

I don't pretend to understand the political machinations and inner working of the city of Milwaukee.
You seriously need to learn to STFU about people, places, events, and situations you have not a clue about.

"I believe he will never run away from the war on terror..."

YOU TOTAL IDIOT! He LITERALLY ran AWAY from the towers! He was responsible for the fuel stored in his stupid and possibly complicit decision to locate his bunker in 7 which was COMPLETELY AND TOTALLY BROUGHT DOWN AND DESTROYED!

Also, he's up to his neck in corruption, the perfect model of the neocon culture of corruption.

He would actually be the first president who COULD NOT serve Commander-In-Chief, so poor is his rep amongst the highest levels of the military....he would obviously get official clearances for intelligence (like Bush did) but he would be deliberately left out of the loop (like Bush was), affecting his ability to make clear, deliberate decisions on matters of security and foreign policy (again).

You want another incompetent.

You want another loser.

Request denied. Go screw up your own life.


"and I don't want Govt run health care..."

Tough shit. You're gettin' it.

Get over it.

"...ID's for illegal immigrants..."

Non-issue, that's been shitcanned already, anyway. Find a new obsession, and learn to worry about the Mexican trucks you are bringing in, your open borders policy that allows all manner of lowlife (including...GASP!...REAL terrorists!)...and your moronic "free-trade" policies that destroyed our industries and gave us lettuce with fecal matter and vacuum cleaners and toys made of lead-laden polybinders so YOU could save five pennies.

"higher taxes for more failed socialism.."

You will pay the taxes for your failed war. We will milk every drop out of you. But you will pay.

And you don't KNOW from socialism.

"...which is what we would get from Hillary..."

Bill Clinton was the best Republican president we ever had, there is no reason to believe Hillary will be much different, and you will adapt.

hashfanatic said...

"Why do you hate the military?"

I cannot speak for anyone else, but:

Listen carefully.

I have no military anymore.

I hate YOUR military.

The military that serves only neocon interests, YOUR interests, and not the majority of Americans.

That military has nothing to do with me, my security, my safety, my interests, my nation.

You hijacked my military.

I have no say in the matter, I have been disenfranchised from my rightful voice, because you hate and intend to kill "leftists" far more than you ever desired peace.

I am only forced to foot your bill.

hashfanatic said...

"3,700+ killed and 25,000+ wounded is a small price?"

Howzabout a million murdered Iraqi citizens (per the Lancet), with zero accountability and not a shred of remorse?

This is not collateral damage.

This is America's Iraqi Holocaust.


"And by the way, does anybody here actually believe that stopping al Qaeda in Iraq will have any significant impact on terrorism world-wide?"

It's irrelevant. "Al-Qaeda" is a manufactured brand name, like "A.O. Smith Gas Boiler", "Starbucks Mocha Frappucino", or "Liquid Tide with Bleach Alternative". It was NEVER about the so-called "Al-Qaeda".

It's about scapegoating a particular brand of foreigner because they are ugly to them, have mannerisms, attitudes, and a level of intensity that seems bizarre by comparison to most Americans.

They want to kill innocent Lebanese, Iranians, Syrians, and God knows who is next. They want to kill them not because they pose any real threat to anyone, but out of baseless hatred and greed, using them to provide public assistance to the military industrial complex, the separate, murky world of independent contractors and mercenaries, the gutting of the middle class and American interests for benefit of the oligarchs, the oil industry and those involved, and to subsidize, through tax breaks, a few marginal, apostate Christian cults that wish to hasten the redemption, while propping up what amounts to a useless, fiat currency that means little to anyone anymore.

must be lonely in the basement tonight...and you live in Newark.

Jim said...

Sorry to be this blunt, Game, because I'm usually pretty polite here, but you don't know what the fuck you are talking about.

One gets used to the leftist sense of absolute entitlement after a while. For example, they love to say things like "let's take OUR country back!! YEEEEARGH!!" (as if the United States doesn't belong to everyone!). That's being said, you're taking it to a whole other level, hash.

jhbowden said...

"This is America's Iraqi Holocaust."

Oh dear. Iraqbodycount.org, which is no friend of the Bush administration, has the civilian deaths around 72-78K. While that's nothing to laugh at, 1,000,000 people isn't even within the margin of error.

Realism said...

Rudy Giuliani's law firm represents the main financier of the Trans Texas Corridor.

You rubes think that the guy who said

"If you come here and you work hard and you happen to be in an undocumented status, you're one of the people who we want in this city. "

is going to stop illegal immigration.

There's one born every minute.

hashfanatic said...

(as if the United States doesn't belong to everyone!)

Jason, right now it doesn't belong to everyone.

Bipartisanship is history.

NEVER have I ever represented myself as establishing "detente" or any other such nonsense.

Face the enemy, like a man.

"While that's nothing to laugh at, 1,000,000 people isn't even within the margin of error."

With all respect, I'd suggest that would depend on who is setting that particular margin of error (and, regrettably, whose particular Holocaust it is).

Jason, let's play time traveler for a moment. If the American people, prior to the invasion of Iraq, were to have heard a truthful, succinct message of what was honestly going to happen, something along the lines of....

"Friends, although we have no evidence that Saddam Hussein had anything to do with the 9/11 attacks, tonight our mission has begun...by September 2007, the death toll will stand at 3,767 American soldiers, 24,138 wounded in combat, and 78,000 Iraqi civilians killed...."

Jason, how do you believe such a message would play with the American people? How would you predict antiwar people, uneasy moderates, chickenhawks in the bars...can you fathom it?

What do you think would transpire?
Politically, and in the boardrooms and shopping centers?

hashfanatic said...

As always, you are incorrect.

I'm in the northern suburbs, about a dozen miles north of Newark, five miles from Manhattan.

What are these bizarre references to "my basement"? Unless you are "remote viewing" my workbench through the touchpad on my clothes dryer, I assure you no one is down there...

Might I suggest you look into Klonopin as an adjunct for those pesky little visions, guy?

hashfanatic said...

"lol...now we are getting Cindy Sheehan crazy."

Scorpion? Game? Fudgie?

The last thing we need is a split-personality wingnut trinity.

Now...

I don't believe Cindy is crazy.

I believe Cindy is is pain, I believe Cindy is right a helluva lot more often then most people give her credit for.

It's amazing to me that you people need a war, need blood, even someone like Cindy's, more than you want to see any sort of peace and reconciliation in the nation, ever.

If it WAS bin Laden (a close friend of George Bush, by the way) who orchestrated the occurrences on 9/11, he really couldn't have hoped for a better president to pull it on than Dubya, when it came to accomplishing his goals.

The Game said...

In all that Hash praised Cindy Sheehan...
he also forgot Bush, many times, said we had a long and hard fight in the war on terror...

Realism said...

"Why do you hate the military?"

Fortunately, our troops are a little smarter than you. Perhaps you should let the trends in political contributions clue you in as to who they think hates them and who supports them...

Since the start of the Iraq war in 2003, members of the U.S. military have dramatically increased their political contributions to Democrats, marching sharply away from the party they've long supported. In the 2002 election cycle, the last full cycle before the war began, Democrats received a mere 23 percent of military members' contributions.* So far this year, 40 percent of military money has gone to Democrats for Congress and president, according to the nonpartisan Center for Responsive Politics. Anti-war presidential candidates Barack Obama and Ron Paul are the top recipients of military money.

old hash....keep those fudgies flowing....bizarro-world is certainly on a roll when there is a free for all....normally there isn't such great comedy "jumbled" in,but youse guys that represent the looney lefties are improving your monologues...still wish there was less drivel to wade through...I
could get right to looney tunes much quicker,my limited time could get RIGHT to the comedy being provided by your comedy crew.....

Realism said...

I see the scorpion is off its meds again.

hashfanatic said...

"In all that Hash praised Cindy Sheehan..."

That is correct. It is called freedom of speech. You are, of course, free to criticize it...start thinking now, and you should be able to come up with something by Thursday.

"...he also forgot Bush, many times, said we had a long and hard fight in the war on terror..."

But Bush is a liar, interested only in oil profits and his escape to Paraguay...why should I care what he says?

The Game said...

Bush is a liar!!!!!
Blood for oil!!!!!
ahhhhhhhh!!!!!!
