Are You "Devoting Your Life to Weasels"? If So, Rudy Giuliani Hates You
Rudy Giuliani had a well-earned reputation for strong-arm tactics when he was mayor of New York. Whether it was homeless people, graffiti artists, or ferret-lovers, nothing was going to stand in his way of enacting the change he deemed best for the Big Apple.
Wait, ferret-lovers? Yup. In 1999, Giuliani unloaded on a caller who phoned in to the mayor's radio show because the caller was a ferret-owners advocate and Giuliani supported a law that took away the poor guy's pet. Prepare to be entertained. Audio here and a transcript here.
I'm guessing presidential hopefuls will avoid hosting their own radio shows in the future. Or they'll get better call screeners...
Rudy is a petty tyrant. This is news? I hope it's not news to anyone living in NYC.
What a funny call. I think NY has a little more love for Bloomberg.
Wow...just...wow.
Even before hearing this, I knew Rudy was a vile person. But now...Jesus Christ, I'm at a loss.
Let's not forget the WEP worker who died on the grounds of Gracy Mansion when Guiliani was mayor. The man repeatedly told supervisors he was ill--there was ahospital across the street--and he was told to get back to work. He collapsed and died. Good old Rudy showed no compassion. Watch the documentary "A Day's Work, A Day's Pay." Guiliani is a vile and self-serving individual and the thought of him even running for president scares me.
My initial reaction was the same as *, "wow!". Rudy is a loon and a bully and I am increasingly convinced he could be even worse than Dubya if elected.
