Giuliani hits the lecture circuit.
Giuliani hits the lecture circuit.
Politico reports that the Washington Speakers Bureau is now advertising former New York City mayor Rudy Giuliani as one of its speakers. From the promotional e-mail:
WSB is honored to announce that Rudy Giuliani, one of the most respected leaders in the world, has returned to Washington Speakers Bureau for exclusive representation.
A visionary leader, Giuliani has always epitomized “grace under pressure,” and nowhere was that more apparent than in his recent bid for the presidency. Giuliani galvanized the electorate by focusing much-needed attention on such issues as security, domestic and international terrorism and securing a future that’s prosperous and beneficial for all Americans.
Giuliani candidly discusses insights from his public and private sector experiences, including transformative lessons in leadership.

“Giuliani galvanized the electorate…”
Ummmm…What?
I mean, I like Rudy. He was the greatest mayor in NYC’s history. But he hardly “galvanized the electorate” in his presidential run.
February 13th, 2008 at 9:56 amWhy would any one care if this liar is on the lecture circuit.
February 13th, 2008 at 9:58 amGood Riddance to bad rubbish.
so, what’s the ante to put this 9/11 ghoul to appear on stage…? $40K…? $60K…? $100K…?
And, yes, I DO take it personally
February 13th, 2008 at 9:59 amGiuliani galvanized the electorate by focusing much-needed attention on such issues as security, domestic and international terrorism and securing a future that’s prosperous and beneficial for all Americans.
Ha ha! I wonder who wrote that copy. Probably Rudy himself. Rudy was an asterisk through most of the time he was running.
And Exley, I know you’re excited about the pitchers today but take a deep breath. “Greatest mayor”? What are you, anyway, 25? Helllo? La Guardia?
February 13th, 2008 at 10:02 amA visionary leader, Giuliani…
Right, he’s so visionary he couldn’t get out of the single digits running for President.
I am not surprised that he has gone right out to attempt to cash in on his run for President. I just can’t believe anyone would pay him to talk to them. His “vision” got him kicked out of the Presidential race.
February 13th, 2008 at 10:03 am“Giuliani galvanized the electorate….”
***snort***
February 13th, 2008 at 10:07 amGummitch, Today is a BIG DAY! (Even though Mets pitchers and catchers don’t report until tomorrow….) Are you a Mariners fan? (I seem to recall that) If so, nice pick up with Bedard….
I only WISH I were 25 again….LaGuardia was a great mayor, no doubt. But if you had seen the disaster NYC had become during the Lindsay-Beame-Koch-Dinkins era and had Rudy really brought that city back, you too would agree that Rudy was perhaps the best mayor in the city’s history.
Let’s Go Mets!!!!
February 13th, 2008 at 10:07 amCorrection: “and had seen how Rudy really brought that city back…”
Sorry….Maybe I am too excited about the start of spring training.
February 13th, 2008 at 10:09 amBut he hardly “galvanized the electorate†in his presidential run.

Yeah, after spending all that money in the Florida GOP primary, he only got 911 votes.
February 13th, 2008 at 10:09 ambwahahahahaha
February 13th, 2008 at 10:12 am( breathe)
bwahahahahaha
Why don’t the Speakers Bureau just flush their money down the toilet? The flushing sound will quite accurately replicate the noise emitted from Rudolph Guilliani.
If i worked at the Speakers Bureau i’d make sure that Guilliani gets paid by the word and i would make for damn sure that the words ‘nine’ and ‘eleven’ don’t count.
February 13th, 2008 at 10:13 amGiuliani candidly discusses insights from his public and private sector experiences, including divorces, affairs, under the table cash, alienating his children, lying to NY’ers, kickbacks from Motorola for bad equipment to FDNY, avoiding Bldg 7 on 9/11, and various & sundry other associated misdeeds.
February 13th, 2008 at 10:14 amWhat egregious drivel!
February 13th, 2008 at 10:16 amI like Rudy.

I like the Tin Man.
February 13th, 2008 at 10:18 amThis is Rudy’s last best chance at a money gig. His Princess Bride needs new clothes.
February 13th, 2008 at 10:22 amGiuliani candidly discusses insights from his public and private sector experiences, including transformative lessons in leadership.
Er, I think they meant to say “transvestite lessons in leadership”.
February 13th, 2008 at 10:24 amI like the Tin Man.

Hey! I’ve used that line in here half a dozen times and no one ever gets it. Thief!

Sorry. How’s this?
I like toast.

George Costanza.
February 13th, 2008 at 10:29 amI mean, I like Rudy.
Comment by Exley
I’m guessing you aren’t a New York City firefighter.
February 13th, 2008 at 10:33 amRight… Rudy focused people’s attention on terrorism and the economy. Like people weren’t thinking about those things BEFORE he ran for president… What a joke!
February 13th, 2008 at 10:39 amGiuliani galvanized the electorate…behind other candidates! He went wimpering home with his tail between his legs and his face and ass red!
February 13th, 2008 at 10:51 amExley: how can a Mets fan like you idolize George Costanza who used to work for the Yankees???
And BTW, thanks for the Santana thing — thereby guaranteeing that my Nats have to wait another 5 years or so to do anything in the NL East…
February 13th, 2008 at 10:56 amGiuliani has always epitomized “laziness under pressure,†and nowhere was that more apparent than in his recent bid for the presidency.
There — I fixed it…
February 13th, 2008 at 10:59 amThe Dogfather,
Oh, I don’t idolize George Costanza. I was just trying to identify Shoeless’ “I like toast” quote.
Actually, in the early episodes of “Seinfeld,” George is a Mets fan, along with Jerry.
As for the Nats, they are a fun team to watch. Acta is a good manager. And now you have Milledge and Lo Duca. And a beautiful new ballpark! You will have a good time with the Nats this year. You live in DC?
February 13th, 2008 at 11:05 amNow that would be torture – having to listen to Giulliani…. And Paying extra for the privilege.
We’re in a world of hurt, for heroes.
February 13th, 2008 at 11:41 am“Rudy Giuliani, one of the most respected leaders in the world”, which “world” are they referring?
February 13th, 2008 at 12:01 pmThe underworld.
February 13th, 2008 at 12:03 pmI would suggest that a majority of the “real” world doesn’t know who he is!
February 13th, 2008 at 12:10 pmLive in NoVA, Ex, but work in DC — was a Nats fan when they were the Senators, before they got stolen from us to become the Rangers in the 70’s. Great to have baseball back in DC, and great to have a new ballpark a couple of miles from my office…
February 13th, 2008 at 12:15 pmDogfather,
I will be at Nationals Park in early April when the Mets play the Nats….Maybe I’ll see ya there.
February 13th, 2008 at 12:29 pmHeh, “galvanized the electorate” indeed.
Yeah….. galvanized them against him!!
February 13th, 2008 at 12:38 pmHe was the greatest mayor in NYC’s history. But he hardly “galvanized the electorate†in his presidential run.
Comment by Exley — February 13, 2008 @ 9:56 am
Worst mayor in modern history, anywhere. he screwed that city u9p, took its character, unleashed uniformed murderers (called “cops”), made the city undefendable (9/11). he was a piece of shit, and still stinks.
February 13th, 2008 at 12:53 pmWhat’s he going to show them, how to get an apartment for his mistress and his buddy’s mistress on the public dime?
Or maybe how to cross dress with flair?
Bathroom stall tap techniques?

February 13th, 2008 at 2:23 pmNote to the Washington Speakers Bureau – why not use the recent cover of The American Conservative where they featured Rudy done up in a fascist brown-shirt outfit and striking a Mussilini-like pose. That should pack the room with the corporate types. That’s the kind of “leadership” they can relate to. And, insightful leader that he is, he’s pointing the way to America’s future.
February 13th, 2008 at 2:41 pmRudy gets pathetic everyday. Yesterday, Rudy is going back to work for his law firm. And now he is pimping (Shuster’s new word that he said to Hillary’s daughter) on the lecture circuit. Stuff is rough in the Shag Fund.
February 13th, 2008 at 3:00 pmGhoulzilla the princess bride needs to pay for more first class seats for her Louie bag, for more drugs to be able to handle looking at Ghouliani and deal with being a haz been.
FDNY and Rescue workers across NYC cant stand them and only people who dont read think he was the best mayor and love him.
