He said it "as a matter of fact." I thought he was crazy at the time. I could not imagine a Giuliani nominee. Who would vote for "HIM" as a nominee, for "Christ's" sake.
At this point, as Guilini poses for his announcement as a POTUS nominee it puts me right back to "that day." A day we just can't get over. A day we don't want to remember.
Once, in a fantasy, we believed we were invincible. To know we are not, is a massive shock.
We have not recovered. We are no longer a naive nation, believing we are invincible by nature. And like any trapped animal we only think from our basic survival instincts. "RAGE and FEAR" Our ego is in for "trouble" and a huge awakening.
America has a split personality. On the one hand (right) we have terrorists to fear; on the other hand (left) we fear our own government.
We either "blindly" put faith in a guy who doesn't seem to know "what the fuck he's doing" (this could only be blind faith) or "shamefully" ask people to grow up and get over it.
We can't live in that place anymore. The Utopian bubble has burst.
George Walker Bush, failed as a new FDR. We traded the New Deal for a Raw Deal.
The Right still dreams of some kind of fantasy "victory". Bush talks to God remember; and God has a plan.
Guys, "god's plan" was to knock America off its pedestal.
In the end we choose to either go "back" to Clinton or "stay with Bush" with the symbol of 911 "Mayor Giulini"?
Americans never retreat. We never lose; for if we do, we lose the core of America: Our blind faith, that we are "right by nature".
The Right would never nominate a moderate like McCain. We"ll choose the guy who "gained a reputation as mayor for
tightly controlling and shaping public information." http://www.nytimes.com/2007/01/02/nyregion/02cnd-rudy.html?hp&ex=1167800400&en=d65a9b9354d09310&ei=5094&partner=homepage
