Rudy: Vote Republican or YOU WILL DIE

[dog428]

I expected to find a thread on this, but I didn't see one. Sorry if someone's already linked to it on another thread.


Could someone please remind Rudy that the Republicans don't have such a great record in stopping major terrorist attacks on this country, or tracking down and prosecuting those responsible for an attack, or making the country less likely to be attacked again.

Because he obviously has a completely different view of reality. He's also using a tactic that's just about the most repulsive I've ever seen.

MANCHESTER, N.H. —- Rudy Giuliani said if a Democrat is elected president in 2008, America will be at risk for another terrorist attack on the scale of Sept. 11, 2001.

But if a Republican is elected, he said, especially if it is him, terrorist attacks can be anticipated and stopped.

"If any Republican is elected president —- and I think obviously I would be the best at this —- we will remain on offense and will anticipate what [the terrorists] will do and try to stop them before they do it," Giuliani said.

The former New York City mayor, currently leading in all national polls for the Republican nomination for president, said Tuesday night that America would ultimately defeat terrorism no matter which party gains the White House.

"But the question is how long will it take and how many casualties will we have?" Giuliani said. "If we are on defense [with a Democratic president], we will have more losses and it will go on longer."

To be fair, the GOP isn't the only group that engages in scare tactics.

But this is exponentially worse than the Gore campaign proclaiming in 2000 that "If Bush is elected, he will appoint justices who will repeal Roe vs. Wade!!!!!!!!!!!"

This is just stupid. The only explanation for this and McCain's stupidity is that the Republicans are throwing the 2008 election.

The gamblers have gotten to them.

Did somebody interrupt Rudy to ask what party was in power when his city was attacked?
Or did America's Mayor (fraud that he is) conveniently forget that, while again trying to exploit the Sept. 11 attacks for his own political gain.

Piece of ****.

I was just about to post this exact thing. Guliani was mayor of NYC, wasn't it a Repub that was governor of that state? Bush was president.
Gee, the Democrats really dropped the ball that day, didn't they?

No person in this country has exploited the Sept. 11 attacks for his own benefit more than Rudy Guiliani.

*Cough* **** Cheney *cough* Halliburton.

 

[hockeybeat]

Rudy Guiliani and the GOP have effectively used the "Vote for us or we're all in danger" talking point since September 12, 2001.

And if the last election was any indication, I think people are finally starting to tire of that argument.

This doesn't relate directly to Rudy's ignorant comments, but it does give you some sense of the minds at work here.

On the Daily Show tonight -- in addition to McCain just having his ass handed to him over and over again -- they showed clips of Bush talking about Iraq both before the invasion and after.

Before the invasion, Bush said our purpose in going to war was to stop a tyrant who hated America and would provide a haven for like-minded terrorist organizations to live, train and grow.

After the invasion, Bush said our continued presence in Iraq was necessary to stop a group of terrorist organizations, who infiltrated the country after we removed Saddam, from creating a haven in the country where they could live, train and grow.

I'm just saying ...

True, but that's nothing new.
They argued that we had surpluses, so we should cut taxes. Then, when that had a dramatic negative effect on the economy, they said, "Well, the economy needs help, so let's cut taxes."
Whatever goes wrong, a tax cut is the answer.
Whatever we do -- even if it increases the world's hatred of our country and thus leads to even more terrorists -- it's because we are fighting terrorists.

Actually, it is a little different. Because the truth of the matter, which is easily discovered with a simple search, is that Saddam was PREVENTING the terrorists from training in Iraq, except for one small area. And had we simply asked, I'm sure Saddam would've had no problem, given that there was a little money exchage, in wiping out that area.

The tax stuff can be argued, somewhat legitimately, from both sides. There's no arguing the position Saddam had taken in relation to al Qaeda.

You know what your problem is dog, you want to cite the facts.
Why do you hate America so much that you want to tell the tuth?
