As many of you know, New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg has banned clergy from Sunday’s 9/11 memorial service at Ground Zero in Manhattan.

Why? Who knows, the man is utterly clueless.

Here’s what former Mayor Rudy Giuliani has to say about Bloomberg’s indefensible decision, and of course he’s exactly right.

nobody’s perfect but Giuliani’s balls and backbone seem to be in the right places.

I hope thousands of people bring bibles and rosaries and pass out prayer cards.

Bloomberg has no authority to prohibit religion....fo9r any reason.

Refresh his memory of the Muslim creed..."Kill all the Christians and Jews".

Methinks Mayor "Bloom-Ing-Idiot" considers himself (much like our Dear Leader does) some sort of Dictator or demi-god and forget they are merely, Mayor and President who are elected by the people and there are limits to their "power."

I realize the NY City Council is probably as far left as he is and no doubt would agree with his unilateral fiat, but there must be some recourse by the citizens (as well as the families of those who lost their lives, survivors and others) who could challenge his "authority" to have issued this ruling?

I wish I lived closer, cuz I would buy a bullhorn and begin when the esteemed "hiz-honor" began his remarks, reciting the Lords Prayer, followed by singing God Bless America and challenge Moonbat "Nanny-Bloomberg" to do something about it.

Bloomberg: Just another America-hating communist.

I live close and opt to attend the 9-11 Rally for NO MOSQUE at Grond Zero...

I’ll also pray the rosary while I’m there...will give an account to FR afterward if anything ontoward happens. Guiliani would make a terrific president, pity he looks on abortio as a personal choice, which is what has held him back from being nominated.

While I agree with most of what Giuliani says here, there are two points that seriously frost me.

09/11/01 was committed in the name of Islam. As such it is as big an insult as it could be, for Imams to be included in any memorial related to 09/11. It was also an insult of the highest order for them to be involved shortly after 09/11.

If a Christian had killed 3,000 Hindus by an act of terrorism in the name of Christ, would it be proper to force Hindus to sit through a service led out in part by Christians? I say no.

The proper way for Christians to show their sorrow would be to hold a special service of their own, to voice objection to what had taken place and offer Hindu followers their sympathy.

Imams don’t belong at these events. Christian leaders do. Bloomberg is a lost soul, and no Islamic facility belongs near ground zero.

He’s implementing Agenda 21 as we speak. He got extra tenure as a mayor when Guiliani couldn’t...wonder why...

Bush and Giuliani were the perfect leaders for the horror of 9-11. I thank God that it was so.

I’m on Staten Island and lived thru that day. IMO Bloomberg, Cuomo, Gilligan and Obama shouldn’t be allowed there on 9/11 as they were not in office on that day and had absolutely NOTHING to do with it. OTOH Guiliani, Pataki, Chuck U, and George W. should be holding court over the day’s events as they were in office on that day.

They’ll all be there for sure but you know at the end of the day they’ll all have to face Jesus Christ. I’m ready for anything that happens at our rally and nothing will stop me from attending - hail, rain, snow, the left, or Islamic fanatics.

Is it allowed to say that Giuliani can seriously kick some ass on occasion?

I was also there, waiting for the ambulances to arrive, and none came. The silence of ambulance sirens still affects me to this day. The silence! They don’t know anything because they weren’t there and we were...Only we, the people, truly know. My brother and nephew were one train ride away from being ashes. Screw’em!

No. You are a traitorous liberal.
