THINKING HARD ABOUT RUDY

I’ve never voted for Rudy Giuliani in my life. But I’m thinking hard about it now.

In both cases, I surprise myself.

The rest of America may know Rudy as “America’s Mayor” for his ceremonial performance post-9/11, but for New Yorkers who lived through the Dinkins years, Rudy Giuliani is more than a guy who stands tall when the skyscrapers fall. By the late ’90s, people were beginning to say that New York City was ungovernable: Remember the court-driven interest group spending, the disorder, the bums taking over the parks and the playgrounds and the street corners, spiraling welfare costs, the crime, the small business disaster, the high taxes, rent control, the South Bronx? New York was a disaster area, a poster child for what liberalism hath wrought…….

Indeed…..

Cox & Forkum: Throw Down

FOX News: Ahmadinejad: Iran Will Stop Nuke Enrichment If You Will, Too.

President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad said Tuesday that Iran would only halt its uranium enrichment program and return to negotiations if other Western nations do the same.Ahmadinejad told a crowd of thousands in northern Iran one day ahead of a U.N. Security Council deadline that it was no problem for his country to stop, but that “fair talks” demanded a similar gesture from the West.

“That … we shut down our nuclear fuel cycle program to let talks begin. It’s no problem. But justice demands that those who want to hold talks with us shut down their nuclear fuel cycle program too. Then, we can hold dialogue under a fair atmosphere,” Ahmadinejad said.

The Security Council has set Wednesday as a deadline for Iran to stop uranium enrichment or face further economic sanctions.

Ahmadinejad spoke in a far more conciliatory tone than the one he usually adopts, avoiding fiery denunciations of the West with a call for talks.

Ahmadinejad is as comical as he is pathetic.

Does George W. Bush have to show Mahmoud who is the BIG Dog?

Hotline: Mitt Romney, Unplugged

A sixty second spot, airing for five days in select markets in MI, FL, IA, NH and SC.

And why is Romney “ON AIR” so early?

The Eye has a very apparent explanation.

Sorry Hugh you have it WRONG and Flap doesn’t need to read your book for the explanation.  Furious pace – yeah, because he is so behind in the polls.
