Rudy Giuliani invited to Ground Zero
Politico ^ | 5/3/11 | MAGGIE HABERMAN

Posted on 05/03/2011 7:35:19 PM PDT by ColdOne

President Barack Obama has extended an invitation to Rudy Giuliani to join him at Ground Zero during his visit to the site of the 9/11 attacks on Thursday, a source told POLITICO. Continue Reading

Giuliani and former President George W. Bush both received invitations. Bush declined, with one source suggesting it was to give Obama his moment.

It's unclear what Giuliani will do, but the former New York mayor — who vaulted to global fame after the 9/11 terror attacks — spent part of the day on Monday in lower Manhattan near the 16-acre World Trade Center site, and has praised Obama for how he handled the military raid that killed Osama bin Laden.

The full range of invitations wasn't immediately clear, although it seemed likely that New York City's current mayor, Mike Bloomberg

I wonder if he’ll wear his dress to the event.

That's uncalled for. Rudy was a fantastic mayor. He cleaned up after Dinkens left it a shit hole, brought law and order to the streets, and cut spending.

And you discuss a dress?

The info posted by Pamela Geller on Atlas Shrugged seems more fitting to Obama’s personality than what is being portrayed. I hope none go that were there when 911 happened. Those men are too honorable to stand with BO.

Rudy should ask Paul Ryan what an invite from Obobo REALLY means.

I’m sorry, but why is Zero going there on Thursday? Is this to celebrate the death of Bin Laden?

Seriously...this guy is full of himself. So, we got Bin Laden who was likely in charge of very little at this point. This president has allowed the Middle East to turn into a powder keg, throwing support behind groups who want to do nothing but harm us.

I am so sick of this clown, it makes me want to puke. I’m not sure what’s worse...him or the pathetic media stooges who continue to prop him up. Ugh...

His visit to Ground Zero sounds like the “Gabby Giffords Re-Election Pep Rally Part 2.”

Rudy is currently on a national speaking tour with General Honore. Rudy is the headliner in Minnesota on Thursday. I hope Rudy will decline Obama’s invite and cite a “prior commitment”. But I hear they may postpone his visit until Friday now.

Let O invite Peter King or Debbie Scozzafazzo.

Guiliani should stay away.

No reason to support Obama’s distraction campaign - standing on the graves of New Yorkers for Obama’s political gain.
