DNC: Former US Attorney Giuliani Stays Quiet on Scandal - GOP Hypocrite Alert!

WARNING...ANOTHER GOP HYPOCRITE ALERT!

http://www.prnewswire.com/cgi-bin/stories.pl?ACCT=104&STORY=/www/story/03-22-2007/0004551494&EDATE=

WASHINGTON, March 22 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- With the scandal
involving the politically-motivated firing of eight US Attorneys continuing
to grow by the day, GOP presidential hopeful Rudy Giuliani appears today at
the National Newspaper Publishers Association Government Affairs Conference
in Washington, DC. Giuliani is the only Republican Presidential hopeful
with first-hand US Attorney experience, having served as one in New York
and having supervised all the US Attorneys nationwide as a senior official
at the Department of Justice in the 1980s, yet he has stayed quiet on this
important issue. Perhaps he will take this opportunity today to explain
whether he believes in the importance of prosecutorial independence or
whether he will side with President Bush, partisan politics and the
Republican culture of corruption.

"Despite boasting about his credentials as a former US Attorney,
Giuliani has remained conspicuously silent about this latest Bush White
House scandal,"
said Democratic National Committee Press Secretary Stacie
Paxton. "Giuliani's silence makes clear that he prefers to side with
President Bush and partisan politics to win votes rather than stand up for
judicial independence."...

WASHINGTON -- Republican presidential candidate Rudy Giuliani, a former U.S. attorney in New York, said Thursday that Attorney General Alberto Gonzales should get "the benefit of the doubt" in the uproar over the firings of federal prosecutors.

"The president has addressed it," Giuliani, the former New York City mayor, said. "The attorney general's an honorable man. He's a decent man. He should be given a chance to explain and everybody should sort of give him the benefit of the doubt and allow him to explain."

4. ghouliani is such a gopwhore.
I can't wait until he tucks his tail and gets back to rackin' up the $$$ for tellin' his stupid audience what a big guy he was on 9/11. I hear there's some Firefighters who have the real scoop on the ghoul and disagree that he's such a "hero".

5. Rudy's desperately seeking a firehouse for a photo-op.
Not finding any that will permit him to enter. The word is out to firemen everywhere on Rudy. He's a phony hypocrite and they all know it.

6. Uh huh, "benefit of the doubt"
Tell me, Mr. Giuliani, did your cops give Abner Louima the benefit of the doubt? And whereas Mr. Louima was just in the wrong place at the wrong time with the wrong skin color, Mr. Gonzales is already on record as lying to Congress and the American people. What doubt should such a man receive the benefit of?

7. Did he flutter his skirts while he said it? That's what I want to know.
This dude is a cross-dresser, cheats on multiple wives, appointed Kerick and stood by him, and he's running for president on the REPUBLICAN ticket???


He, more than anyone else running, makes you wanna go "huh???" :wtf:

:rofl: Why does anyone listen to Guliani? He's a joke looking for a punchline.

:kick::kick::kick:
