Yes, but apparently that was just because Arafat didn't have a strong voting block on his side. And you know, as much as I cheer that move, it really smacks of an authoritarian streak to treat a public forum as your own private plaything to be controlled like that.

Jeeze I guess Bill Clinton, Hillary and the rest of the Democrats in power in NYC and the U.S. who howled their rage at Rudy at the time weren't enough of a voting block?

Jeeze now what Rudy did is a bad thing? What do you want him to kiss Arafat on both cheeks like Hillary did to his wife?

No, I just think it's funny that he stood up to Arafat (apparently to howls of protest) but was forced against his will to march in the Gay Pride Parade.

I'll need someone to explain when Rudy stands up to evil, and when he marches with it, so we know what to expect.
