Giuliani Gets Smacked Down By The DNC

For some reason the Republican pest known as Rudy Giuliani is still buzzing and bothering everyone around him in sight. John McCain, who apparently likes his former opponent's foul-smelling stench let Rudy loose on Obama concerning, what else, 9/11 and homeland security. Well once Rudy was done, the Obama campaign and the DNC's Karen Finney picked up the fly swatter loaded with truth and smushed the former Mayor.

From MSNBC's FirstRead:

In an e-mail, entitled, “Giuliani v Giuliani: 1993 World Trade Center Bombing Case,” the Obama campaign points out that in 1993, Giuliani said at the time, per the New York Times, March 5, 1994: “Mayor Rudolph W. Giuliani declared that the verdict ‘demonstrates that New Yorkers won't meet violence with violence, but with a far greater weapon -- the law.’”

Also from that day’s Times: “Mayor Rudolph W. Giuliani said he hoped that the verdicts would lessen tensions rather than increase them. ‘It should show that our legal system is the most mature legal system in the history of the world,’ he said, ‘that it works well, that that is the place to seek vindication if you feel your rights have been violated.’”

The DNC takes its shot at Giuliani with an e-mail with a title, parroting Joe Biden’s Greatest Debate Hits: “Rudy, ‘Noun, verb, 9/11’ Giuliani returns.”

“Democrats are not going to be lectured to on security by the mayor who failed to learn the lessons of the 1993 attacks, refused to prepare his own city’s first responders for the next attack, urged President Bush to put his corrupt crony in charge of our homeland security, and was too busy lobbying for his foreign clients to join the Iraq Study Group,” DNC spokeswoman Karen Finney said. “Rudy Giuliani, can echo the McCain campaign’s false and misleading attacks, but he can’t change the fact that John McCain is promising four more years of President Bush’s flawed and failed policies on everything from energy security and the economy to the war in Iraq.”

Yeah, now that is how its done. As long as Obama and the Democratic troupe respond to Republican attacks in this way, there is no way possible that we lose in November. We have the truth on our side, all we need to do is use it.
