How does billing your sexual escapade to obscure city agencies while you’re mayor resonate with you?

How about assigning a city car and a police officer as your mistress’s private chauffeur?

Having your mistress driven to and back from, alone, her Pennsylvania home, 130 miles away from NY, all on taxpayer’s dime.

For such an honest Jeffeminate guy as yourself, these findings must be very troubling.

A fan of honesty and integrity such as yourself should really reconsider Ron Paul.

Think it over.

Want to know a secret? There were two moments I especially enjoyed at the CNN/YouTube debate – despite my frustration at some of the questions, and the maldistribution of time.

First, I was pleased at John McCain’s attack, which he clearly had planned. Not because that sort of stream-of-consciousness nonsense about Hitler and WWII – when the neocons openly want what they call WW IV! Are we to forget that the first war crime charged at Nuremberg was waging aggressive war?

I mean this: mainstream politicians NEVER attack an opponent they think is far behind. The McCain campaign, we’ve heard, is worried sick about New Hampshire, and they thought a slam at me would help. Ha! Of course,
it only strengthened our forces.

Then, after the debate, Rudy Giuliani walked up to me and said, “Oooh, you sure have a LOT of supporters.” It’s only the beginning, I told him.

Indeed, he could have told that by the crowd outside after the debate. Mitt Romney had a few people, but no one else did. We, on the other hand, had about 500 enthusiastic revolutionaries, plus a boat, a trolley, and two planes towing lighted signs. As I looked out at the crowd, I thought: the establishment has no idea of what they are facing. We have an army of freedom, prosperity, and peace. As the LA Times political blog noted the other day, the
British also thought they had no problem with the Americans–until Yorktown.

But we have an astoundingly short time before the first contests. The Iowa caucuses are on January 3, the New Hampshire primary is on January 8, and Nevada and South Carolina are both on January 19. We have only
30 days to stake our claim to the nomination, and to the new America that restores the ideals of the founders, and leads the world through free enterprise, a sound dollar, the rule of law, and peaceful example. Not through
inflation and bombs.

Help me surprise the neocons and all the establishment with our success. Help me build the foundation for the America we all want. Send your most generous contribution: https://www.ronpaul2008.com/donate. The military-industrial complex, the biased media, the big banks, the Fed, the waterboarders, and the IRS don’t like what we’re doing. But every good American is applauding us, and daring to hope for a better future.

Please, help me give it to them, to us, to all Americans to come. Keep this revolution growing and winning:

Sincerely,

Ron[/i]

pookie,

It’s generally a poor idea to latch on to what the media regurgitates.

You must actually read and process the information.

If you have any interest in finding out what actually happened, please look it up for yourself.

I’m a nice guy. Look up couric + rudy interview from last week.

Thanks in advance.

So your suggestion is that I look up a media interview regurgitated last week?

I did. From varied sources. And as people dig a little, more sources, witnesses, and creatively filled accounting books are coming to light.

It’s all very interesting. Except for Rudy.

Couric is just about the weakest journalist out there… She’d get bamboozled interviewing Paris Hilton.

I’m glad to see you’re down to resorting to malleable unskilled journalists wannabes to “save” Rudy. If that’s the best he can manage, well, let me tell you, it’s not looking rosy for Rudy.

Guess you’ll have to strike your “only care that he hasn’t broken any laws” from your list of candidate-evaluating criteria. What’s left? “Looks good in a dress?”

Anyway, I gotta go, I’ve got two policemen at the door. They’re going to go walk my dog. Another super-handy technique I picked up from Rudy.

pookie,

I’d be curious to see what journalists you trust.

I chose a hostile journalist and his reasonable refutation of these charges.

Let me know.

Doesn’t it give you pause when you’ve swallowed the liberal twist on this without giving it much thought?

Since the majority of dirt thrown in a campaign end up being inconsequential or straight false, I want to ask you directly: What proof that Rudy wasn’t allowing Nathan to use the police as a taxi service would you trust?

Would Bloomberg’s official statement suffice?

Or, is this one of those times where you automatically convict someone you don’t like?

Let me know what I’m up against.

If your brain is closed to alternative modes of thought, we’ll just save some time.
