Over? 9/11 isn't over until WE decide it is!

POSTED: Tuesday, May 24, 2011, 3:39 PM

I think Donald Trump had a better change of getting elected president coming out of New York City than Rudy "911911911911911911911911911" Giuliani (at top, apparently holding a dead fish), but here we are:

Yet there are some indicators to encourage the former mayor. In a new poll of New Hampshire Republicans released Monday by television station WMUR, Giuliani tied for third, well behind frontrunner Mitt Romney but ahead of Tim Pawlenty, Sarah Palin, Daniels, Jon Huntsman, Rick Santorum, Michele Bachmann, and Herman Cain. When WMUR asked New Hampshire GOP primary voters which candidate is the strongest leader, Giuliani placed second to Romney, although a distant second. If Giuliani were to run, he would likely focus his efforts on the Granite State.

This is all too hilarious. For one thing, if you glance quickly at the headline of the linked article it looks like it reads "King Giuliani 'very close' to joining GOP race." Yes indeed, your highness. But more importantly...a tie for third place in New Hampshire? There's a word for that -- "Joementum." Ask President Lieberman how things turned out for him.

I can't decide what's more pathetic, Bunch's mistaking a mask for a dead fish, or Bird thinking this is supposed to be objective journalism. (Hint: it's a blog about somebody's obsessions)

MSL - did you happen to see the title of the last Bunch post?? I'll save you the trouble it was called "Objective Journalism 101" - maybe if you went to the corner store and bought a clue you could figure out what I was referring to.

Bird, I guess he was he referring to a blog about somebody's obsessions?

Rudy certainly is part of it. Just ask the first responders. If it wasn't for Rudy, they'd have had properly working radios, adequate protection from toxins in the ground zero air (Rudy said it was safe and sound, remember?), and oh yeah, a command center located safely away from terrorism's prime targets.

Will, you better get your eyes checked. Rudy is holding a dusk mask. Rudy would be far better than what we have now. He is a leader, and has accomplishments. He did not vote present like Obama. He is what the talking heads like...liberal on social issues, and conservative on defense and financial issues...a moderate like mcCain. I think even Sarah Palin could beat Obama after the mess he created instead of cleaning it up.

Giuliani should have learned last time that a one-state strategy does not work. For a "major" candidate he conducted the least effective campaign in history (or am I forgetting Fred Thomson?). I think there is no fear that he will emerge in New Hampshire no matter how lame--and it is really lame--the current Republican competition is.
