Thread: Guiliani lied at the debate

I'm sure everyone remembers the famous "blowback" statement made by Ron Paul at one of the debates. Rudy Guiliani said he had never heard anything so outrageoous.

Well, right after 9/11, did anyone hear about this?

When Saudi Prince Alwaleed bin Talal suggested that the attacks were an indication that the United States "should re-examine its policies in the Middle East and adopt a more balanced stand toward the Palestinian cause", Giuliani asserted,

There is no moral equivalent for this [terrorist] act. There is no justification for it... And one of the reasons I think this happened is because people were engaged in moral equivalency in not understanding the difference between liberal democracies like the United States, like Israel, and terrorist states and those who condone terrorism. So I think not only are those statements wrong, they're part of the problem

So Ron Paul's statement was not the first time Guiliani had heard this. He was GRANDSTANDING and ONCE AGAIN USING 9/11.

Well this certainly is no surprise. Rudy will milk every drop of political liquid he can out of 9/11.

Personally I don't think too much of a politician who uses a horrible event such as 9/11 for political gain.

Gee rudy, it must have been nice to receive a phone call to get out of bldg 7 before they "pulled" it.

If it wasn't for 911 he would not even be on the radar for the nomination!

He actually looked so foolish using that to make himself look good.

He would have been better off to have been silent and let his actions and his past speak for him.

It certainly isn't the first time he ever heard of it - not by a long shot.
