Just realize that if these Rudy haters are going to carry the Left’s water with their attacks on Rudy,

Actually it's the Rudybotz that are supporting the left's agenda by supporting Rudy who is a flaming NY liberal. But if I get saddled with a dem lib because I don't support an R lib, so be it. In the meantime I'll work hard to see that the neither happens.

Well images do have their effect. Dukakis in the tank. Kerry in that silly blue jump suit. Rudy in a dress will turn off some voters.

They probably will, but there's a big difference between pompous blow-hards who end up looking silly because of it and a man who's not scared to have a laugh at his own expense.

I really think that the people who make fun of Rudy are really jealous and wish they were that secure in their manhood.

I think you're delusional. It doesn't make you even the slightest bit worried or disturbed when an open, enthusiastic supporter of homosexuals dresses in drag? Would you be saying the same thing if, hypothetically, this were the reaction here on FR to Bill Clinton dressing in drag?

The democrat party are a bunch of low rent, no fun, fun hating, dysfunctional, deceitful, power hungry oxygen thieves. Did I leave anything out? Probably. Feel free to add on here.

Mayor Rudy appeared in a "Rudy/Rudia" skit with Julie Andrews (Andrews was
starring on Broadway at the time in the cross-dressing classic Victor/Victoria
(about a woman pretending to be a man pretending to be a woman).

Under his drag name “Rudia” wearing a spangled pink gown and blonde Marilyn
Monroe wig, Giuliani said he was “a Republican pretending to be a Democrat
pretending to be a Republican."

It’s about time for one of Rudy’s tooters to accuse you of “projecting”.
They love `psycho-babble’ and other newspeak quacking.

“I really think that the people who make fun of Rudy are really jealous and wish they were that secure in their manhood.”

That’s rich. For anyone to come up with such an asinine comment like that only shows how YOU think. Have you always struggled with your manhood? Come on, you can tell us—we’re here to help.

Be careful, areafiftyone is Rudy’s official bedpan carrier.

“Want proof? look it up”

Since you made the allegations, it is your responsibility to support them.

Calling me “Nancy” is further proof of your immaturity and cowardice. Instead of hiding behind your Mommie’s skirts after throwing rocks at the other kids, you are now hiding behind your computer.

I am not going to waste any more time with you.

As a conservative living in Brooklyn at the time, I watched Mr. Giuliani’s performance as mayor. He was effective and steadfast...and you are right—he was great in news conferences. He left the press wondering what just hit them....

“....Well images do have their effect. Dukakis in the tank. Kerry in that silly blue jump suit. Rudy in a dress will turn off some voters.....”

A few maybe, but it won’t be a huge issue. Rudy was trying to look ridiculous while the other two looked ridiculous because they were trying to be serious. Big difference.

“Rudy was trying to look ridiculous while the other two looked ridiculous because they were trying to be serious. Big difference.”

Excellent point. It is a big difference.

It also shows that he has a sense of humor. Does anyone here imagine that Dukakis, Kerry, or Hillary for that matter have a sense of humor? Only when they are given a script and a setup line.

AP has a lot in common with the Rudy haters on Free Republic.
