		<description>Fascinating how some people just don&#039;t listen ... to reason, or ANYTHING, for that matter.

Who?

Katy [comment: December 7th, 2008 at 4:18 pm] ... and

CageyCretin [comment: December 8th, 2008 at 9:07 am} ... btw, the screen name says it all.

I don&#039;t know who you narrowed-minded bigots have in mind, but I for one AM an independent and have been my entire life.  I have voted for people running under nearly every party banner.

So don&#039;t lecture ME, morons.

Why don&#039;t you read my post and take it in the spirit in which it was said ... A HOPE that we as a nation can call things fairly all the way around - hold ALL our leaders responsible - and not be so quick to condemn only those we despise, for whatever reason.

Too libertarian for you neurologically challenged goons?

That&#039;s a rhetorical question - Katy and [the aptly named] CageyCretin.

The answer is: Apparently so.</description>

I laugh.

______

But after you are through laughing, you do admit that this statement can apply to both Giuliani and Obama, correct?


labman57 Says:

Essentially, he is admitting that most of what he was spewing during election campaign was a pack of lies. So why should be believe him now? Sounds like more “typical politics” to me.

The guy is actually trying to convince people that he is HAPPY that Obama won? Give me a break! He is one of these smug, self-righteous right wingers that went out of their way to contemptuously spread manure, attacking not only Obama’s policies but his character and ethics, and now they claim that it was just “typical politics” (you listening, Sarah Palin?).

Yeah, politicians really need to be careful about slamming opponents in campaigns, then turning around a few weeks after the election and saying just the opposite:

Peter Baker:

&quot;Thank you, Mr. President-elect.

You talked about the importance just now of having different voices and robust debate within your administration. But, again, going back to the campaign, you were asked and talked about the qualifications of the -- your now -- your nominee for secretary of State, and you belittled her travels around the world, equating it to having teas with foreign leaders; and your new White House counsel said that her resume was grossly exaggerated when it came to foreign policy.

I&#039;m wondering whether you could talk about the evolution of your views of her credentials since the spring.&quot;

PRESIDENT-ELECT OBAMA: Look, I&#039;m in -- I think this is fun for the press, to try to stir up whatever quotes were generated during the course of the campaign...&quot;

The &quot;heat of the campaign&quot; is a poor excuse no matter who uses it.</description>

Thank you for your kind comments.  I would reassure you sir that yes the sun will continue to do its appointed duty and the moon will certainly continue to do its too.  And I think that you will find President Obama as reliable as the aforementioned physical phenomenon.

Now Mr. Giuliani, kindly GO AWAY!</description>

		<description>do you feel better now, NYindy? ... good... now run along back to your rudy doll...

we&#039;ve heard it all before... didn&#039;t take long to figure out the facts and the truth... 

and the fact is, truth - and reality - has a liberal bias.

thanks for the reinforcement.</description>

		<description>Mr 911 must need some insider government contracts. That&#039;s the only way his recent statements make any sense.  He&#039;s heavily invested in the &quot;security&quot; business and realizes there&#039;s gold to be made if only one makes nice with the new guys in power.</description>

Ginger Guiliani is beyond nauseating. And how is his BFF indicted Bernie Kerik doing lately?</description>

		<description>I am an independent in New York City, and have always been an independent.  This gives me vantage point of seeing hypocrisy wherever it may be, rather than from only one ideological perspective.

Yes, Rudy Giuliani is posturing.  But so are all of you phonies who lambast him, but FAIL to mention the hypocrisy in all the things Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama said to each other vis-a-vis where we are now!  Ditto for ALL the other candidates on both sides.

And btw, I hate to disabuse some of you nitwits, but the fact is that Giuliani happens to be extremely bright ... just not as smooth as Clinton or Obama.

But PUH-LEASE don&#039;t moralize here ... not with the ample crop of parasites in both parties ... unless you dish it out fairly ... or unless you just like hearing the sound of your own voice.

So instead of highlighting hypocrisy by spreading even more of your OWN hypocrisy, why don&#039;t some of you braintrusts have the guts to call all of them for what they truly are ... opportunistic weasles ... and try tohonestly, rather than along the myopic view from your party line.</description>

		<description>Daflava08 - please don&#039;t kid yourself, you bring up good points.  Remember, the mainstream media shapes perceptions today in ways many would never have imagined years ago.

Noun-Verb-9/11 Rudy has some utility to his masters because his image is permanently associated with that tragic event.

Please don&#039;t underestimate the ability of the media to flush things down the memory hole and &quot;catapult&quot; a whole new set of lies.

IMHO, we are just seeing rudy setting himself up to be an &quot;objective&quot; voice in the future.  His lies from the past will be forgotten.

This will allow him to spin an entire new set of lies when it serves his and his master&#039;s purpose.

Yes - we will probably see him run for office again.  The neocon/repugs cannot afford to write off this &quot;asset&quot;.</description>
