Rudy Giuliani for President

My friend Harry writes:
Backing this President is WRONG. I don't care what PARTY he is from, he is unfit for office. I want Rudy Guliani, there was a tough man. I dont care party what he joins.... we need a man who wants to work in office... and who isnt afraid to go against the grain.....


My response is:

I don't care if Rudy was a cheating husband, I'd vote for him for Pope. Imagine how he'd clean up the Catholic church?

Reagan was the best president of my life, but I'm willing to bet Rudy would be even better.
This man made New York livable again. Forget 9/11 and all he did for the city at that time. Just remember what this city was like in 1990, before he became the Mayor.

It was a cesspool.

I took a job on Long Island, because there was NO WAY my family was going to live in this city in the new century. But now, I see NYC as a great place to live. Crime is ALL the way down. You don't have to fear riding the subways, you don't hear car alarms going off at 3AM, because car thievery is down. You want to say it's because of the economy and the fact that people are working more now. Fine. That's part of it.
The rest is the zero tolerance for scumbags. Cops are more aggressive now and for that we can thank Giuliani, who uncuffed them and allowed them to do their jobs.
Right now the Dept. of Homeland Security is a joke, run by toadies and friends of George W.
Rudy would clean house and make America the most secure country in the world.
He'd work with the oil companies and give them tax incentives to slow down the price gouging. Remember all the beautiful work he did keeping businesses from fleeing New York? Remember when the stock exchange was thinking of moving to New Jersey? He stopped that.
Rudy would be going to soldiers' funerals and showing compassion to the families, unlike our current president who has not gone to ONE FUNERAL!!!!!!!!
Rudy would cut our losses in Iraq and forget how he'd handle a situation like Hurricane Katrina. He might even consider the idea that the climate is changing and do something about reversing its course.

The man is not Jesus, but he's not the dangerous, bewildered boss from Dilbert either, who is beginning to resemble Bush more and more each day.
Rudy is a brilliant businessman, a determined lawyer, a hard-nosed prosecutor, a statesman, a thinker, a listener, a tough guy, a compassionate man, a hero.
HE IS EVERYTHING PRESIDENT BUSH IS NOT!!!!!
