Well that explains why the Dow has gone up 9000 points under the Obama Administration.

Giuliani: A Horse Kicked Me In The Head As A Child
12 Likes
When I was 9, I was influenced by my horse and to this day I think I prefer horse government, if you get behind me I kick you, it’s kind of republican in a way.
It is also true that by the age of 9 I had solidly formed political opinions, my refusal to play kick the can was merely an extension of my politics, I knew that King of the Mountain was the only game to prepare me for life as an adult. This is where I left the communism of childhood behind.
Oh it’s funny watching Rudy implode, each statement more absurd than that last. He certainly is a great help to the Republican party!

Well, if you squint hard enough, Tim Geithner does look a little like Leon Trotsky.

“He doesn’t talk about America the way John Kennedy and Ronald Reagan
did, about America’s greatness and exceptionalism,” the ex-mayor added.
And every time Giuliani and his fellow GOP miscreants say shit like this, “American Exceptionalism” and “greatness” get diminished yet again; approaching the x-axis on an asymptote in the eyes of the world.

Giulani was influenced by an insane asylum.

There’s nothing “socialist” about Obama, or even Obamacare.

I think that there’s something socialist about Obamacare, just not enough.

American exceptionalism. The best aircraft carriers and cheeseburgers in the world.

It would be interesting and enlightening to find out what influenced Giulliani at the age of 9. I’m thinking it ends with “ism” too. Racism.
But that’s okay to the GOP. Communism causes way more problems than Racism, right?

I guess I’m supposed to run breathlessly to the tube for fresh Sunday show updates regarding Rudy’s self-beheading but I have to wash my hair…

Rudy’s Dad & uncles were strong arms for some local Mafioso Capo. His Dad also did time in Sing Sing for using a baseball bat for un-baseball like activities. Much better, right ?

That was then, now is now.
And, again: BHO is not running for a third term and he probably doesn’t give a fuck what you mean.

Giuliani sure puts a lot of emphasis on what you were exposed to as a young child.
Rudolph Giuliani was born in an Italian-American enclave in East Flatbush in the New York City borough of Brooklyn, the only child of working-class parents, Harold Angelo Giuliani (1908–1981) and Helen (née D’Avanzo; 1909–2002), both first-generation Americans, children of Italian immigrants.[15] He was raised a Roman Catholic.[16] Harold Giuliani had trouble holding a job and had been convicted of felony assault and robbery and served time in Sing Sing;[17] after his release he served as an enforcer for his brother-in-law Leo D’Avanzo, who ran an organized crime operation involved in loan sharking and gambling at a restaurant in Brooklyn.

Much to my disappointment, but I like and respect Obama anyway.

Well, I guess by Rudy’s theories this explains why Rudy is a crook?

On second thought, there may be something to this is in Rudy’s case: He did ultimately join the party which says “I’ll get mine and to hell with the rest of you.”

Why all the attention on a failed candidate who is never going to hold elected office again, and who will never be appointed to any position in any administration?
Why?
