Rudy Fear Is My Friend Giuliani
Rudy Giuliani is a first rate fear monger. He sounds like a mob boss as he goes from one campaign stop to another warning us all about the dangers of another terrorist attack if we elect a Democratic president. He wants us to believe that only tough guy Republicans can protect us from all the dangerous “terrorists” around the world. The man has no class.
Rudy Giuliani likes to point out that Democrats don’t talk about the war on terror. Here are three words that Giuliani never mentions: Osama Bin Laden. Bin Laden declared war on the United States. Bin Laden ordered the 9-11 attacks. Bin Laden sent Arabs from Saudi Arabia to hijack those airplanes which crashed into the twin towers. There were no Iraqis or Iranians among the 9-11 hijackers. But just as George Bush used the 9-11 attacks to justify the War in Iraq, Giuliani wants to use the 9-11 attacks as an excuse to invade Iran. That’s where the “War on Terror” propaganda comes in. Bush and Giuliani don’t want to acknowledge these basic facts:
1) Neither Iraq nor Iran has ever attacked the United States,
2) Neither Iraq nor Iran has ever posed a threat to the United States,
3) Osama Bin Laden is a Saudi currently residing in Afghanistan or Pakistan. He has never lived in Iraq or Iran.
Ask Giuliani about America’s dreadful reputation in the Arab the world and he’ll respond: They hate you. No Rudy, they don’t hate us. They hate arrogant shoot first and ask questions later politicians like you. Effective leaders unite our friends and divide our enemies. Bush and Giuliani unite our enemies and divide our friends.
Franklin Delano Roosevelt, circa 1932 – All we have to fear is fear itself.
Rudolph Giuliani, circa 2007 – All I have to offer is fear itself.

Very well said. The modern Republican philosophy seems to be based almost entirely on fear: fear of terrorists, of foreigners in general, of a collapse of the Social Security program, of a war against Christianity, of encroaching Socialism in America, etc.
My fear? Four more years of the current warmongering, big business favoring Republican policies, which none of their major presidential candidates has disavowed. The current path we are taking is destroying our nation from within.
