Readers of this blog will recall that last week Rudy Giuliani lost a state fundraising chairman, Thomas Ravenel, to the lure of cocaine distribution. Fortunately for America's Mayor, a replacement has been found. In fact, it's none other than Ravenel's father, Arthur.
A former South Carolina state senator, Arthur is a legend in local politics. Hell, he even has a bridge named after him in Charleston. Seems like a solid choice to get out there and represent Rudy, right? Well, er, maybe not:
An ardent supporter of the Confederate flag, he infuriated the NAACP--who wanted the banner off the Statehouse dome--by calling the organization the "National Association of Retarded People" at a flag rally. Ravenel said he was thinking of an event he ad to attend the next day. When black leaders demanded an apology, Ravenel apologized to retarded people. That was the first time folks talked of taking his name off the new bridge...Okay, he's so dim-whited that he can't even come up with an acronym that fits NAACP? Wow, strike two for the Ravenel family. But don't give up, Rudy, maybe they have an uncle or cousin somewhere who you could hire next.

1. I shake my head when people claim they want change in the States but they support Rudy Giuliani. I don't understand it nor I ever will. But I guess money talks and I shouldn't believe that there really is that many people supporting this loser.

4. Rudy is a big mouth...his only way to get back is to attack others...he did it to David Dinkins back in the 80's becaus he didn't win the election for mayor and David did. Then when it was time for re-elect he attck him with some many he told about David Dinkins the folks in New York elected the fool for mayor. He is only out for himself not for the people. When 911 happen he didn't do a damn thing he just wanted credit for nothing. It was the NYC finest and the Fire Dept and NYC folks that help not Rudy. He is not even good enough to be on running for a President seat. If you think we in trouble now...Now he want to attack our former president Bill Clinton. For what why is he speaking out now what Clinton didn't do or should had did 6 years ago....HE IS SO FAKE!!!! JUST LOOK AT HIM AND LISTEN TO THE WAY HE ANSWER QUESTIONS.

5. Comments by 1, 2, and 3 above, proves that the dumbing down of America by the libs has really been working, and continues to show how effective their program is working.

6. whoever wrote this blog has no brains, and obviously is another brainwashed liberal that thinks every republican is a bad guy. well, i guess you all will be crying either way in this election. If Guiliani wins youll cry, and if hilary becomes president, the world will come to an end, so youll be crying then too. have a nice day, and find something productive to talk about.

7. Who ever wasted their time writing this blog obviously has nothing better to do than waste other peoples time. SOme people have all day to sit at their computer and complain about everything in the entire world, but never stand up to do anything about it. I guess youll be crying either way in this up coming election. Youll be crying if Guiliani wins, and youll be crying if Hilary wins, simply because the world will come to an end. Then youll REALLY have something to make a blog about! have a nice day, and find something productive to do with your time.

10. Fuck Ghouliani! This man is insane. Get another strategy Ghouliani! And as for the remarks about Clinton and Democrats alike, everyone makes mistakes, but, ditsy-ass Bush keeps making pointless and costly mistakes. What the hell did you do about 9/11? You support the war because you're mad at the terrorists for bringing that shit to New York while you were mayor there! Get off of bush's d$@k! And if you're so passionate about what you said about Clinton and the democrats at the christian college (of all places), why did you try to "clean it up" later? Because you are crazy!!! And Clinton is one of the best Presidents we've had and plus he is black! LOL. And, as for Joe, if this blog is beneath you, why the hell are you posting about it? You need to get a life and check your damn self!!!

11. Any person who can actually sit as an American citizen and claim that it was Rudi Gulliani's fault for what happened on 9/11 and there after is crazy. No one in this blessed country knew what to say or do when the first attack happened. Everyone thought it was an accident or a problem with the plane when the flight hit the first tower. Everyone is quick to forget what this war is really about. Democrats want to make it political, IT IS NOT. It is very much a religious war, and the people who attacked us the first time will continue. If we stop now, we may as well blow ourselves up, because the terrorists everyone seems to think don't exist, very much do.

12. Guilliani's comments about Clinton today regarding 1993 WTC incident is absurd. Bush has gone to war. How has that improved ANYTHING??? The world is worse off with Bush as prez. Ne has ruined us internationally. We have lost standing in the world's eyes and now have 10 x the enemeies ... PEACE is the way. John Lennon was right. Whick adulterer do you want to vote fore? Ghouliani's bride looks like a massage parlor gal.

13. Excuse me gentlemen, but there are ladies and children present: under 17 doing social studies homework--kids really do have summer homework if they want to do well on the SAT. Let's keep the discourse above the waist with exemplary decorum. Thank you.

14. RUDY,RUDY,RUDY, HOW CAN YOU PUT THE BLAME ON THE CLINTONS ABOUT TERRORISM, WHEN 9/11 HAPPENED WHILE UNDER YOUR WATCH? IN THE LAST PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION, CHENEY'S PLATFORM WAS, "IF JOHN KERRY WAS ELECTED, WE WOULD HAVE ANOTHER TERRORIST ATTACK', HE DIDN'T REALIZE THAT 9/11 HAPPENED UNDER HIS WATCH EITHER. SO RUDDY, WHY DON'T YOU FOCUS ON THE ISSUES, ON HOW TO IMPROVE OUR GREAT COUNTRY, RATHER THAN INSTILLING FEAR INTO THE VOTERS.

15. i dont trust any republicans, particularly guiliani. i think he received prior warning of 9/11. if there is a conspiracy, he was in on it.
