Rudy Giuliani, the former New York mayor and 2008 Republican presidential candidate, talked Tea Party... in a lively interview with CNN's Piers Morgan that [aired] at 9 ET Monday night.

Overall, the Tea Party is a "good" movement, Giuliani said, but it has also attracted "a couple of people that are a little crazy ... "

As an active member of the Tea Party movement in Minnesota, I may be expected to take issue with Giuliani's assertion. However, one of the charms of the Tea Party is its defiance of expectation. I actually agree with the mayor.

There are, in fact, a couple people in the Tea Party that are a little crazy. There is a sound explanations for their presence, and for my ability as a Tea Party activist to acknowledge them.

Rudy, would you say the Democratic Party is mostly good but have a couple of crazies?

[GeronL]

Is Rudy still pro-abortion?

Only someone who is crazy could be pro-choice

[VAFreedom]

eh, i can deal with a couple of crazy people as oppose to an entire group of crazy people.. and you know what i’m talking about.

[A_Former_Democrat]

Just keep playing to their agenda and feeding them quotes, you idiots

STOP LETTING THEM DICTATE THE AGENDAS

Giuliani suffers from several neurological and moral deficiencies. Still, for the most part, the pain receptors in his butt are in good shape for when Satan's minions start poking him with pitchforks.

Other than that he's a just another good'ol boy eh!

Giuliani: Some Tea Partiers Are “A Little Crazy”

That means a lot coming from you Rudy.

[GOPJ]

Look, the left has a PR machine that cranks out letters - letters they say are from conservatives - (some liberal who hates us but attended ONE tea party) and holds himself out as a ‘member’... Then the hate letter is sent to those on the line, members of the MSM, Republicans and Democrats alike. Rush caught the game years ago - many never catch it...

The GoP is about to be cast to the side of the road if it falls for any of the Rinos amongst us.. it will end up alongside the carcass of a braying ass in a ditch of their own making.

Let them drink TEA.

[Major Matt Mason]

Yes, I'm sure that Rudy hangs out with Tea Partiers every day.

It's funny. I've been to a number of Tea Party events. They've all been very social so I'm sure I've spoken to at least 100 people whom I otherwise would not have encountered. I'm not talking about "How are you?" conversations. These have all been about signs I was carrying or the other person was carrying, or literature they were handing out. Every one of these people was well spoken and well informed. I haven't met a single person at these events who was even slightly "off." Giuliani doesn't know what he is talking about and almost certainly has never been to one of these events.

Lets see....

* The Republican and Democrats have ran the country into a bottomless economic pit.

* Our standard of living is nose diving.

* Millions have entered illegally through our lawless violent borders during war time.

* Tens of millions of American are out of work, millions have lost their jobs, homes, investments, retirements, medical benefits, businesses etc...

But the Tea Party people are crazy?

Tokyo Rose would be proud of the political insiders operating in the U.S. today.

Giuliani Accused Of ‘Notorious Adultery’
Estranged Wife Sues Ex-N.Y. Mayor For Divorce

By Dan Collins

(AP) Former Mayor Rudolph Giuliani’s estranged wife has filed for divorce, citing adultery.

The filing by Donna Hanover, 52, came more than a year and a half after Giuliani filed to divorce her, citing cruel and inhuman treatment.

Giuliani is typical of the “Republican” that it takes to run a toilet like New Yowk. Sam type that it would take to run ANY “big City”.

[ExTexasRedhead]

I would say that all Tea Party members are more sane than any Liberal.

[J40000]

Hey Rudy,

I see you’re good for trying to APPEAR PC...

How about giving us folks just ONE example of a Tea Party “crazy”, huh? Just one?

Nope, didn’t think ya could...

[texmexis best]

Rudy,

You, sir, are done.

A TEA partier.

[WhyisaTexasgirlinPA]

Hey Rudy, does your third wife agree with you?
