America's Mayor: Anthrax attacks weren't terror because they weren't Islamic. GO TEAM BUSH! USA!

Just when you think Rudy can't get any worse...

Rudy Giuliani came on The Situation Room to attempt to clarify his remarks on Good Morning America and still has his facts wrong. John's right. The media needs to give this liar a time out. Rudy now wants us to believe that he meant to say we weren't attacked since Sept. 11th on George Bush's watch. When asked about the anthrax attacks, Giuliani claims that wasn't a terrorist attack because the FBI didn't ever figure out who did it, and it "was not done in the name of Islamic terrorism".

Of course Blitzer didn't point out how utterly ridiculous that statement is, or some of the other domestic terrorist attacks that happened on Bush's watch as well, so he didn't do much better than George Stephanopoulos' bit of stenography on Good Morning America.

Media Matters reminds us of some of the terrorist attacks that happened on George Bush's watch. It seems Rudy Giuliani has joined the ranks of Dana Perino and Mary Matalin with hoping that Americans have very short memory spans, and don't know how to use the Google.

For more go check out this most excellent set of graphs put together by Bob Cesca--Terrorist Attacks and Presidents. He pretty well blows out of the water this latest Republican talking point that George Bush kept us safe from terrorists. Nice work Bob.

1. But they were done in the name of islamic terrorism...

that's what the anthrax letters claimed (even though they are now presumed to be false flag attacks).

2. Next up: Rudy analyzes the German bombing of Pearl Harbor.

"Don't stop him, he's on a roll."

:rofl:

[malaise]

3. Maybe Rudy knew the source

:Evilgrin:

[Berry Cool]

8. It was the Japanese.

Sneak attack on the Twin Towers. :rofl:

4. Giu-911-iani has turned my stomach from the first day he started running for Mayor....

and it was down hill after that

[mix]

5. I find this trend very disturbing. nt

[surrealAmerican]

6. This man has no idea what he's saying.

If, indeed, "the FBI didn't ever figure out who did it", then how would he know "it was not done in the name of Islamic terrorism"? No wonder he holds no elected office.

7. I give it 2 years before he's locked up in Bellevue, scrawling 911 on white padded walls

:crazy:

[AwakeAtLast]

9. People in other parts of the world are jumping up and down.

What an idiot! :banghead:

[jtrockville]

10. How do we know they weren't Islamic if we don't know who did it?

Which only adds to the ridiculousness of his statement.

[NNN0LHI]

11. Someone needs to ask Rudy if Timothy McVeigh was a terrorist

I would like to hear that answer.

13. He'd probably respond like many of the fools I've asked that did...

I have been told 'several' times that "McVeigh wasn't a terrorist... he was a anarchist!" Amazingly, it does sound stupid enough for "Rudy" to repeat as well.

[rhett o rick]

12. How does he know they werent done by Islamic terrorist? Does he know something we dont? nt

[Mythbuster]

16. Oh for five minutes inside Rudy's head.

I'd love to get him really drunk and then sit back and listen to tales of 9-11 we never would have dreamed could have been true... at that time anyway.

[Terra Alta]

14. what about the DC area snipers in 2002?

One could argue that they were committed by Islamic terrorists.

It seems Rudy has a very selective memory.

[Don Caballero]

15. Rudy is so dumb. The anthrax attacks were classic Al Qaeda.

He should shut his mouth and go back to his law firm.

[CJCRANE]

17. New Scientist: "the bacteria originally came from a US military laboratory".

Anthrax attack bug "identical" to army strain

[GreenMetalFlake]

18. hence the obvious reluctance of establishment media to give it much attention

[Don Caballero]

20. Oh I see. Another conspiracy theory.

You guys know no bounds. Al Qaeda took responsibility for the anthrax attacks. There has been no evidence of any other group being involved.

[Ghost in the Machine]

21. Look, I'm going to be very blunt: you come come across as way too stupid to be in this conversation

I mean, really....

"Al Qaeda took responsibility for the anthrax attacks. There has been no evidence of any other group being involved."


Do you have a link.. anything... to back up your assertion? I ask only because this smells like you just pulled it out of your ass... is that shit on your fingers?

Maybe you'd be more comfortable posting cat pictures in the Lounge or something... it's hard to fuck up a kitteh picture...

[spanone]

22. 100% W R O N G...and who are 'you guys'?

[Ghost in the Machine]

19. Really?? How many other anthrax attacks is al Qaeda responsible for?

:shrug:
