Uh, DC, Ghouliani has done nothing but talk about 9/11 since 9/11. He is a phony that stood on a mound and looked important with the Idiot in charge. I can’t wait until the firefighters and police gang up on him before the election. He will be sliced Sausage. As much as I am not a big Hillary fan, she will obliterate him.

Miss Ruby is like those obnoxious radio sportscasters who manage to weave in commercials for corporate crap in almost every other sentence they speak…

But for the Post to claim that Rudy barely mentions 9/11 is the Post’s, and Murdoch’s, way of saying “Eff Yoo” to anyone who would bothered by their lies, and a borderline-lecherous “wink wink” to anyone who finds comfort in those lies. They’re spinning their own reality, as they & the Bushies have so many times these past 7 years. You can either agree that their reality is the way it ought to be, or you can STFU and accept it anyway, because that’s they way it’s going to be.

Except Pravda has more truth than the NY POSt. What a rag!

Here’s what the Post should stick with:

http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/2/2b/NYPost.jpg

Which is still kinda specious, given Guiliani made significant bank cashing in on 9/11 with his “i’m a terror/security expert” position.

The Republicans live in their own dream world, disconnected from reality or responsibility for doing more than listening to their party propaganda.

“I’d September 11th like September 11th my September 11th steak September 11th medium September 11th well September 11th done September 11th. Oh September 11th can September 11th you September 11th please September 11th tell September 11th me September 11th where September 11th the September 11th restroom September 11th is September 11th. And September 11th waitress September 11th, for September 11th me September 11th it’s September 11th always September 11th September 11th September 11th.”

Even though the premise that Rudy never mentioned 9-11 previously is obviously wrong, The NY post running a negative piece on Rudy has to be a first!!! It must have something to do with the lawsuit

You are probably correct about repukians eating their own on Trudy.
