I like Gugliani but my apprehension about him is ethnicity, like is America ready for a president heavy on the Italian side; like they said they were never ready to elect a vice-president of Jewish descent.

Like I have stated many times I am neither Republican nor Democrat. I am independent and I will vote for the lesser of the two evils.

I agree Billy boy has charisma but morals for a politician are important. Tell me what do you tell and 8 year old who asks daddy what did the president do to that woman that got him in so much trouble.

I defend none of these politicians because politics is a filthy business. Hillary is a power monger already and is already mudslinging her democrat opponents as early as now. She recently took over 800.000.00, from a rap star producer who publishes songs so vile that i would not print the lyrics here. And in the next breath she talks about morals and public profanity…..

I respect your opinion though.

With regards to WMD. well, what killed the 200,000 kurds? Every intelligent source told the president that they were there - France even, Germany even, England. The UN gave him 6 months to dispose of them. Oh i think you might find them in Syria by the way.

I also would like to see a woman president here maybe Miss Rice?

and corruption? in my view, it is an endless cycle, and will continue to be there unless you put a stop to it. look at this country, they have the “black gold” and should be wealthy like other arab countries. but what happened? only pockets have been fattened, but not the economy, nor the poor and desperate people. it’s saddening =( because of this, most people cheat and steal, some become savages, killing for a few bucks. it’s depressing.

regarding mayor rudy, i’ve read a lot of articles about him after 9/11. as you said, everyone has a skeleton in the closet, but what’s important was his performance during the 9/11 nightmare.

Our system has ben corrupted now in to solely two parties and it is estimated that over 20 million dollars is needed to run for the office of president. To me this is very sad. I actually grew up thinking every one had a chance to run for any office.

As with Hillary , now thats a different story. As a New Yorker, I can say that she set up residence here only to run for Senate and represent a distrcit she knew nothing about, only to achieve her goal for candidacy to the presidency.

I believe she has done NOTHING for the state of New York and was a huge proponent of Iraq’s invasion when it was a popular move 5 years ago. Like a true politician, she has now flip flopped.

As far as Rudy is concerned, well, I was here. I smelled the burning flesh that day. I saw people jumping out from 100 floors above the earth to escape the unbearable torture of being burnt alive in those towers. So maybe I am biased because I see how Rudy held a panic stricken city and country together…like a leader should. He was there hands on. Also long befrore 9/11 he took a city with a huge deficit, cleaned up times square and other troubled areas, of street urchins, prostitutes, and in general low lifes and lowered taxes.

Let me ask you this: Was it not a huge price that the Kurds paid a few years back when that madman exterminated over 200.000 of them? No one expected this to be an easy turnover, and yes the real hope lies in the YOUTH but they also need a chance to be heard which is the whole idea of a democratic system.

One can’t expect to turn a dictatorship around overnight We too have a civil war in our country over 100 years ago. In some battles 5,6,7 thousand died in minutes - the worst war we ever had here. Also I believe the 3,000 that died on 9/11 over here was a HUGE PRICE TO PAY for just going to work that day. Let’s face it, I understand that one must live in america to see the real story, the rest of the world only hears what our liberal media wants them to hear…..I am not saying every political decision the U.S. has made over the years is correct. World ploitics is a very difficult and dirty game to say the least………..
