Wow - doubling down on the disrespect of the great Doctor, and by extension, us.

[phill4paul]

I've got a little harsher words for what I would call Giuliani.

[AJ Antimony]

Lol pretending like anyone cares what he has to say

[No1butPaul]

I've got a little harsher words for what I would call Giuliani.

I'll help ... he's a puke.

[KramerDSP]

Wow - doubling down on the disrespect of the great Doctor, and by extension, us.

There are very few people in life that I despise more than Rudolph W. Giuliani.


Ironically enough, the Ghoul is the guy that made Ron Paul famous.

[Smitty]

Know what?,...you feed a beaver a gram o'crank and he'll make a face just like Rudy Giuliani.

[AggieforPaul]

He needs to be tried for manslaughter for each of the FDNY members who died on 9/11 because of faulty radios, and should give all future interviews from jail.

This thread in 14 posts is chocked full of win! Reps all around!

[Peace&Freedom]

He needs to be tried for manslaughter for each of the FDNY members who died on 9/11 because of faulty radios, and should give all future interviews from jail.

Or worse, tried for complicity in the 9/11 inside job. He was informed about staying away from WTC 7 (the normal emergency center) that morning, and never disclosed who told him to stay away.

[Brett85]

I like this line the best:

"They’ve both run for president. One of them actually won some delegates."

[Working Poor]

I've got a little harsher words for what I would call Giuliani.

he is a pansy IMO.

[phill4paul]

he is a pansy IMO.

I wasn't thinking of that particular word. But, yes, that works also.

[satchelmcqueen]

well the goul is a cheat and scam artist...911.

Anyone remember Rudy's platform in 2008?

NINE-ELEVEN

[CaptainAmerica]

Ron Paul delivered over how many thousand babies?
Ron Paul fought for honesty,integrity and civil liberties for how many years?
Ron Paul ran for president and beat Guiliani's numbers in 2008?

[Bruno]

Has he read Ron Paul's reading assignment yet?

[low preference guy]

A kook is someone who says:


Freedom is about authority. Freedom is about the willingness of every single human being to cede to lawful authority a great deal of discretion about what you do.

[Anti Federalist]

Benito Giuliani on freedom:

What we don't see is that freedom is not a concept in which people can do anything they want, be anything they can be. Freedom is about authority. Freedom is about the willingness of every single human being to cede to lawful authority a great deal of discretion about what you do.

Wow. Freedom is about giving up your freedom? That's a strange definition...

Why do people always call him cranky? He's always cheerful when I see him on teevee.

LOL... Isn't he something? He's like a villain in a dystopian novel.

If not for 91ul1ani, many of us might not have become a Paulians. It was so refreshing to hear a politician tell the truth. As it was for so many others, that was my red pill moment too. Thank you, Ron!

Keep it up, Rude, you ageist little tyrant. The more you cast aspersions on the good Dr., the more people come to our side.

[Dary]

He's just jealous.

We should have thrown his ass into the Mackinaw straits when we had the chance.

Sounds like someone is still butthurt 4 years later

Iowa Caucus 2008 Final Results:

Paul 9.9%
Giuliani 3.4%

It's strange, I remember how good I felt seeing Ron get 10% in 2008 and how bad I felt seeing him get 22% in 2012. Here's to hoping a liberty candidate gets 40%+ in 2016!

[AdamT]

Ghoul is one of the worst human beings alive. F him.

[Occam's Banana]

Oh, come on, Ghoulie. Kook? Cranky Old Man? Is that all you got? So lame ...


Ironically enough, the Ghoul is the guy that made Ron Paul famous.

That ain't irony. That's karma.



http://www.bigmarshnewsphotos.com/images/npc_guiliani.jpg

So *that's* what a beaver on crank looks like. Noted for future reference.

[heavenlyboy34]

This may be the most disturbing thread I've ever read.
I've seen worse. :cool::toady:

[The Free Hornet]

Do you have a reference for this? Is it one of the 2007 debate moments? Was it all that pivotal?

[devil21]

He's desperately trying to remain relevant. Ignore him.

[liveandletlive]

i used to respect Rudy as a law and order man, he sure cleaned up New York after Dinkins and i respected him for that...but like J Edgar Hoover he turned into a monster. "Mr. 9/11" has exposed himself as nothing more than a fascistic thug and a big government RINO pig. Oh and a Yankee fan.

what a disgrace

[Akus]

I've got a little harsher words for what I would call Giuliani.
you shouldn't get angry
when a drag wearing two timing prostitute like Guliani who is shunned, I understand, even by his own immediate family, calls Ron Paul a kook, it's a badge of honor for Ron Paul, and, in an indirect way, you.....

[Weston White]

Rudy Giuliani? Wasn't he at one time a prosecutor or the mayor of some vastly corrupt city (New York I think), that then ran for POTUS purely on a victimization platform or something like that? Oh, and his first name was that of a fictitious reindeer, something like “Rudolph”? So whatever happened to that guy?

Like, wow. Spoken like a true fascist. Facepalm.

[Chester Copperpot]

Do you have a reference for this? Is it one of the 2007 debate moments? Was it all that pivotal?

It was the 2nd GOP debate during the last election cycle...Its the moment many Americans saw a relatively unknown politician standing up to a well known politician and the relatively unknown politician shocked the hell out of everybody.

[Weston White]

A kook is someone who says:


[ Interruption by someone in the audience. ]

You have free speech so I can be heard.

[ Another interruption. ]



Norman Siegel, the executive director of the New York Civil Liberties Union, said he was "floored" by the Mayor's definition.

"Order is an element of freedom," Mr. Siegel said. "But to put the emphasis on order rather than on a just and fair society is inverting the meaning and significance of freedom."

lolol I had just realized the absolute atrociousness and hypocrisy of that guys misstatements:


We see only the oppressive side of authority. . . .

What we don't see is that freedom is not a concept in which people can do anything they want, be anything they can be. Freedom is about authority.

Definition of AUTHORITY: power to influence or command thought, opinion, or behavior;


Gee now I wonder why that is, huh!

[UNC08]

For about three months in 2001 I thought the world of this guy. What a dick.

He's still around? Who knew? :rolleyes:

[radiofriendly]

Can anyone find audio/video of Giuliani calling Dr. Paul a crank? I did post what I think is the original video report on my live blog - it will give you the context...
but it's just the reporter recounting the back/forth with him:

http://iroots.org/2012/08/30/live-blog-rnc-convention-thursday-83012/

Here's the moment that blew fire in the Paul campaign in 2007.
I was already on board (for just a few months) but I knew this was the moment...I was jumping up and down
and thanking Rudy (and our Lord)...

Oh yeah, I remember this one. Especially "thumbs up" guy. I loved how they essentially trolled the news team, but did so in an almost respectful way. No shouting or anything, just so much positive energy.

[BlackTerrel]

Does anyone care what Giuliani says?

[Occam's Banana]

Does anyone care what Giuliani says?

I don't care. But I *am* mightily entertained.
