Giuliani’s “Values” And Hiring An Accused Molester.


Presidential candidate Rudolph Giuliani hired a Catholic priest to work in his consulting firm months after the priest was accused of sexually molesting two former students and an altar boy and told by the church to stop performing his priestly duties.
The priest, Monsignor Alan Placa, a longtime friend of Giuliani and the priest who officiated at his second wedding to Donna Hanover, continues to work at Giuliani Partners in New York, to the outrage of some of his accusers and victims’ groups, which have begun to protest at Giuliani campaign events.
“This man did unjust things, and he’s being protected and employed and taken care of. It’s not a good thing,” said one of the accusers, Richard Tollner, who says Placa molested him repeatedly when he was a student at a Long Island, N.Y. Catholic boys high school in 1975.
At a campaign appearance in Milwaukee last week, Giuliani continued to defend Placa, who he described to reporters as a close friend for 39 years.
“I know the man; I know who he is, so I support him,” Giuliani said. “We give some of the worst people in our society the presumption of innocence and benefit of the doubt,” he said. “And, of course, I’m going to give that to one of my closest friends.”

Good news for Fingers Foley he'll be back in Washington with a big job if Rudy gets in office. Just the kind of man Rudy is looking for perverts, child molesters, those who hire prostitutes and of course cross dressers. It's going to be a gay old time in the White House. Look for Rudy to pick Brother Dick Cheney as his VP so again the Supreme Leader will be running the Government while the cross dressing puppet will party.

Jackie, LOL "it will be a gay old time in the White House if Rudia gets in"

I don't understand how Rudia is ahead in the GOP, with so many skeletans, and dresses in the closet.
