Would Rudy Giuliani be running for president if he was married to anyone else but Judi?

[LynneSin]

I swear I can't understand why this man is running for office. He's as corrupt as a$3 bill, his own flesh & blood children won't speak to him. He's crawling into bed with people who do not like his formerly pro-life,pro-gay policies (and now accepting their endorsements). The ONLY thing that this guy has going for him is a few days back in September 2001 where anyone would have looked like a leader compared to Bush, who ran like a scared puppy to Nebraska. Giuliani's 9/11 moment was simply being the right person at the right place and time.

I truly believe that this guy knows he's full of shit and corrupt as well but is running for president for one reason - his white trash wife who has been gold-digging herself out of rural PA upbringings.

1. Judi's couchie has magical wonderous powers

it caused Rudy to cheat on his second wife, it caused Rudy to bill obscure government agencies designed help the poor with personal expenses, it caused no forced Rudy to make the NYPD taxi Judith around so he could fuck her, and last but not least, Judi's magical couchie convinced Rotten Rudy that he could run and be a good President, of the United States of America. That is one toxic, magical couchie.

2. IT"S JUDI

damnit - that was her given name. I'm not buying into this "I'm Judith now" bullshit

8. Judi it is

14. You nailed that one

Judi's magical coochie powers have served her well throughout her life. There was a time, many years ago, that I sat and listened to several guys that knew her and Bruce. They wondered why her coochie made Bruce go loopy.

I wish I could remember their speculations. I do remember tears shooting out of my eyes and my tummy hurt from so much hysterical laughter.

It was such a mystery.

Believe you me, it was Judi pushing Rudy to run. She's wanted to be in our White House for almost three decades.

3. well behind every successful man is...

a trail of trophy wifes. she`ll dump him in a second when he hits the skids

4. Well...he did have a fairly solid record as mayor before 9/11, from what I've heard.

He was a United States attorney for a long time--I can't say the guy is not qualified, because we've got Edwards as a one-term Senator on our side. His icky behavior reminds me a little of Bill Clinton--his supposed strengths are also his weaknesses. His authoritarian take-no-crap attitude helped him clean up the city, but also led to his acting like a total imperious dick who thought he could do whatever he wanted. Power went to his head, big time.

5. Did Bill give Monica a chauffeur? NO, HE DID NOT.

The comparison is ridiculous.

As for Rudy's record before 9/11? He was an embarrassment. Everytime he opened his mouth, we cringed. He wanted all museum exhibits to be acceptable for an 8 year old.

7. I'm not directly comparing their actions--I'm saying that in Clinton's

case, the guy was a charismatic people-charmer (a strength), but used it, and his position of power, to fulfill his appetite for a little somethin' on the side. It ended up being a bit of an achilles' heel for him. Same with the Rudester--the qualities that made him effective as a prosecutor, clean-upper and crime fighter also made him a real dick in other areas.

11. Looked like a direct comparison to little me.

Adultery is NOT a crime in the United States. (Perhaps you're thinking of the Saudis.) Diverting funds for fun or profit IS.

6. Please don't buy into the lies Giuilani has made up about his NYC mayor career

and I wouldn't even BEGIN to compare him to Clinton. Hillary is no gold-digger, she's Bill's FIRST wife.

10. He's running for prez for the money.

He knew damn well from day one that he would never actually get elected. However, he also knew damn well that "Former Republican Presidential Candidate" increases one's speaking fees by a considerable percentage. He also knows that controversy sells, and the more controversial, the better. The guy is no fool, he knows about his own skeletons. He also knows they're worth a lot.

12. Wouldn't you think Rudy and Judi would have had a very serious conversation,

prior to announcing his run for Prez, about the possibility of all his indiscretions coming out and being made public? Wouldn't he consider the affect of his kids not being able to stand him, the pics of him cross-dressing and Bernie Keric's activities. His treatment of his wife while Mayor alone, shows he is morally bankrupt.. Did they not ever consider that all of this would come out?

13. Rudy 9/11

He didnt do anything on 9/11............:hi:

15. Look at his second marriage to a local news anchor. She made him mayor n/t
