NY Post slams Rudy/Rudia for playing the 9/11 card.


Thinkprogress:


Today the New York Post has a front-page article slamming Rudy Giuliani for “playing” the “9/11 card” in his presidential campaign. It highlights criticisms from 9/11 families and firefighters who charge that Giuliani is “distorting the truth” with his new mailings to voters in Iowa and New Hampshire touting himself as “America’s Mayor.”
Giuliani’s exploitation of 9/11 for political gain is nothing new. The New New York Post’s Carl Campanile, however, is just discovering it:
In one piece, Giuliani is hailed as “America’s Mayor” who displayed “Strength through Leadership.”
While Giuliani’s supporters have long boasted about his performance after the attacks, he himself had not, until now, mentioned it as prominently.
“After the worst attacks on US soil, Rudy Giuliani went to work rebuilding New York City and faith in America,” reads the mailing, which features a photo of the former mayor set over the city skyline.
Giuliani, it says, “led the largest rescue and recovery operation in US history.”

Rudy has bigger problems to worry about like the information that could destroy his campaign. Yes Rudy is a true criminal and all those secrets will come out as Bernie goes to trial. Rudy is so deep in the Crime Family that if he turned his back on them he would be swimming with the fishes.
