Giuliani briefed on Kerik’s mob ties.

“Rudolph W. Giuliani told a grand jury that his former chief investigator remembered having briefed him on some aspects of Bernard B. Kerik’s relationship with a company suspected of ties to organized crime before Mr. Kerik’s appointment as New York City police commissioner, according to court records.”

    Clinton wears ties and briefs. Shouldn’t that be relevant as well?


  2. Jake says:

    Clowns will eat me!


  3. Patrick1 says:

    I had boogers for breakfast.


  4. Perry Logan says:

    And Giuliani thought, “organized crime connections. Could be useful.”


  5. Zooey says:

    Yes, a tiny look into the future Giuliani administration — in hell.


  6. Ben Dover says:

    Another face of the Bush Crime Family.

    Can you imagine how the Reich wing whackjobs would be crying foul if Bill Clinton had done this? But with America’s alleged “mayor” doing it, then its ok.

    I wonder at what level of school the Republic Party requires its members to take a course titled “Hypocrisy 101″?

    Rudy is dead meat. When you strip all else away, his political career can be summed up in three little numbers –> 9-11.

    When you stop and think about it, he’s just like GDumbya . . . except that he hasn’t had as much opportunity to screw things up as GDumbya has.

    Let’s hope that that continues to be true.

    Oh, it looks like one of the skeletons got the key to the closet.

    It never happened. Rooody Gee doesn’t remember, so there!

    More likely the door busted off the hinges…

    Rudy is a War Criminal and Pathological Liar. How did he know the towers were going to come down?

    Oh. I forgot. He’s was hanging around Miss Cleo.

    Heh…I wondered when that would be brought up.

    Also, remember that Rudy knew full well the inhalation dangers of Ground Zero, but cleared it just the same.


  13. not impressed with the U.S. says:

    Jake and Patrick 1 – How much are you two single-digit IQ trolls paid to spew one-line, idiotic nonsense on these threads? Morons!

    Does ‘Gigaloani’ still wear womens clothes?

    Again I bet one virtual buck that this is all part of a master plan to have Jeb step in at the last moment and “unite” the Republicking party for the 2008 election.

    First the core built up McCain and then brought him down (again I note what a willing dupe he was/is). Next we hear and see polls that it’s Rudy that the Republickers can rally behind because he can win. But … but .. what about Kerik – his ex – his other ex … At the right time Rudy will be brought down.

    The ‘lickins will be in disarray as the primary season starts. Who can save them who,who … enter Jeb (reluctantly) who “as we all know” is smarter than W., more sane than W., experienced, has proved his fealty to the 3rd temple crowd by trying to “save” Terri Shiavo and (for all the corrupt insiders) just as willing as W. to turn the U.S into a bananna republic.

    I note with respect that some other commenters ridiculed Jeb for his corruption but y’all will have to note that Karl and Babs didn’t care what you thought about W and won’t care what you think about Jeb.

    50.001% of the vote is their goal and they’ve proven they can steal some of that.

    One virtual buck???

    Who in his/her right mind would want to vote for someone with a double handicap like GOP and the name Bush. Except the 30% that is.


  17. DutchHenry says:

    This is nothing new Giuliani has been corrupt for along time those of Us who lived in NY during his mayoral stintsaw it first hand.
    It’s the media folks like “tweety” Matthews who keep giving Americans the idea that Giuliani was an upstanding citizen.
    Remember the same “tweety”Matthews figure kept saying that Bush is the kind of guy Americans want to have a beer with.Well yeah! heard him sling that crap lately ?


  18. John M, USAF, RET says:

    The only reason Rudy is “America’s Mayor” and the “Hero” of 9/11 is simply because he’s compared to Dubya’s forthright, brave heroic “running like a chickenhawk” response.

    Smoke and mirrors.


  19. Raymond Funamoto says:

    Rudy, BABY—I’M GOING TO MAKE YA A DEAL YA CAN’T REFUSE……GET Bernie HERE A JOB AND YA WON’T REGRET IT!!!! HONEST!!!!!
