Giuliani's whatever he wants to be.

(DID YOU GUYS KNOW THAT HE'S THE HERO OF 9/11???)

Well, that's about the worst photoshop job I've ever seen.

I guess it is better than rooting for 9/11.

But why doesn't everyone see through this guy?

Good question. Also: Why did 50% of the country think George W. Bush, after horribly butchering term one, would do better in term two?

The alternative to Bush was even worse? :nod:

I don't get it. Red Sox Nation (tm) is more like the Democratic Party than the Republican Party. They claim to be the scrappy underdogs, but they're just as much about money as the supposed villain. When they lose, they whine and cry. When one of their members defects to the side with even more money (Johnny Damon), they cry that he's a sellout, without once realizing that he was already a sellout when he was on their side. (Ask Kansas City and Oakland fans.)

The Yankees are much more like the Republican party. They are what they are, and they're not ashamed of it. I don't like it very much, but it's better without the hypocrisy.

I liked Rudy as a mayor for most of his time in office. I hate his stubborness & think that another "I will not admit being wrong" president would be TERRIBLE for this country.

That being said, what a complete tool.

Presidential hopeful Rudy Giuliani declared himself a Red Sox fan on Tuesday, but as recently as last summer he vowed never to trade his Yankee soul to the Sox - even for the White House.

Last July, The Providence Journal asked the former mayor this fateful question: If the Devil said you can be President if you become a Red Sox fan, would you do it?

"I'm a Yankee fan," Giuliani replied then. "I always believe it's a sign of my being straight with people, about not wanting to fool them, that I was one of the first mayors to be willing to say I was a Yankee fan."

He went on to say he had "great respect" for true Red Sox fans, but as for becoming a Red Sox cheerleader in a Devil's bargain, "Probably that's a deal I could not make," he said.

Giuliani sounded a different note on Tuesday as he stumped through New Hampshire, a loyal province of the Red Sox Nation and home to the first presidential primary.

"I will be rooting for the Red Sox because I am an American League fan," he told a group of reporters, most of them local. "In this case, you won the division and we lost."
