Giuliani and Wife Dump on Hillary

Rudy and Judy
moviereporter.net

As if he’s already secured the nomination, Rudy Giuliani has begun to focus his vitriol on the other party’s presumptive nominee, Hillary Clinton: “I don’t know Hillary’s experience. She’s never run a city.” It’s been a long, long time since we’ve had an ex-mayor occupying the Oval Office. Maybe Giuliani is on to something here. There just has to be some parallel between being a mayor and the leader of the world’s only superpower.

Not to be left out, Giuliani’s wife, Judith, also threw in a little back of the hand: “I’m not a political person. And I have no desire to sit in on Cabinet meetings. And I promise you, I’m not going to morph into a politician.” And if my husband is elected president, I promise never to leave the first kitchen.

Baltimore Sun:

Giuliani, interviewed with his wife, offered thoughts on a variety of issues:

On Hillary Clinton’s experience: “I don’t know Hillary’s experience. She’s never run a city. She’s never run a state. She’s never run a business. She has never met a payroll. She has never been responsible for the safety and security of millions of people, much less even hundreds of people. So I’m trying to figure out where the experience is here.”

[...] His wife, Judith, said of her role: “I’m not a political person. And I have no desire to sit in on Cabinet meetings. And I promise you, I’m not going to morph into a politician.”

The first kitchen?  Reminds me of a stepford wife, the republicans must love comments like this, seems a sexist comment, wonder why they do not have a female candidates on the repub side, they all must stay in the kitchens like good spouses, well that should get some Mormon votes.

Who cares?

Neither the wishy-washy cackling shill nor the dress-wearing serial adulterer are going to get their respective party’s nominations to run. Neither of these idiots has a clue, a plan, or a prospect. The only difference between the two of them is one is more corporately endorsed than a Chevy in NASCAR. The bottom line is that no one has cast a single vote in an election for either of these knuckleheads. So, this report is more unsolicited entertainment news.

If you want to be the dumpee, you should first be sure that you yourself has an impeccably clean record. One that cannot be attacked. Now I fear that Rudy and ‘kissin cousin’ have opened themselves up to much scrutiny.

Rudy knows how to dump on women. He’s been doing it for years on wives number one through, what is this one anyway? Number three...four?

Rudy is a liar and an oportunist. HMMMM? Sounds like a politician doesn’t he?!

Giuliani and Wife Dump on Hillary

Well duh ...
That’s what republicans do.

They dump on people.

The obvious answer to the not asked enough question.
How DOES one identify a republican?

He is right on the money.He views running a Country as if it is a business interest.I am sure Rudy will be consumed by making payrolls.If the current occuppant is his role model making payrolls will consist of just printing more money.The electorate as of now has never seen the wisdom of electing a mayor President.Maybe this time the sight of a middle aged bald man running up and down Pennsylvania Avenue if we should get attacked again is somehow reassuring.

Is this the best we could come up with?

Mr.& Mrs. Funn, how very lovely.

Hillary should ask him why he flew to Israel w/in just a day after 9/11 when he had so much on his plate here? - and how about Guiliani Partners, not even Ed Koch could get such a severence.
