Rudy Giuliani on MSNBC's "Morning Joe":

"Boy, you guys really give this guy a break that is beyond...They'd have been working on impeachment of Bush by now. If Bush were the president and handled it this way, there'd be like a movement to throw him out of office." "Just try to be fair."

Mika Brzezinski asks Giuliani "What would you do?"

"I know exactly what I would have done. The first thing I would have done is to bring in outside experts who knew as much or more about this than BP because I wouldn't trust just BP to run it for me. I wouldn't want my fate, the fate of my people, the fate of the southern part of this country in the hands of BP. I would have gone and I'd have called up the people you're talking about, the people I talked about the other night. Are there people that are better than BP, I would have asked. The answer is "yes." Are there people that are far better than BP? Yes. Is BP good at this? No. Then give me the people that are the best. After all, I'm the President of the United States or the Mayor of New York City. You can get anything you want.(continued)

Well, I saw what he did for NYC and I see what Bloomie has done to it since Rudy left and I’ll take Rudy over the majority of politicians out there today.

Me too.

I didn’t say it was better, it is just a fact. I didn’t make the rules but if you are a Republican running for president you have to be pro-life.

I’d feel a lot better with a dung beetle in the White House right now.

In fact, at the moment there is--he's interviewing for green jobs czar.
