Rudy Giuliani Steps Down From Giuliani Partners

AP:

Republican presidential hopeful Rudy Giuliani has stepped down as head of his consulting firm, Giuliani Partners, after months of refusing to disclose the firm's clients or the role he played.

Giuliani has been replaced as chairman by Peter Powers, a longtime friend and former aide, Giuliani Partners spokeswoman Sunny Mindel said Tuesday. The change was reported by The Wall Street Journal earlier Tuesday, and Mindel noted news stories over recent months saying Giuliani was handing control to Powers.

Now, maybe Clinton's campaign manager Mark Penn will consider resigning his chairmanship of Burson-Marsteller, PR firm of Blackwater (BKA Murder Inc). I'd say that both sides have taken enough blood money this year.

IT ***IS*** "DRAG QUEEN RUDINA" AND ***NOT***...

"Drag Queen Rudia." Corrigendum. My bad. My source is the New York Times, no less:

This man's face emits absolutely no love what so evah.

But, of course, the name remains unchanged. Does Rudi-Rudi believe he will still need a job after the election?

Or, does he just putting a faux front-man in to deflect criticism. My bet is that he will still need a job after the election, and that this "change" is change in appearance only.

Man, with Rudy destructing, Mitt going down, Huckabee having some serious issues and Hillary tanking, who will be left standing by election time?

Good Grief!

What is it with the GOP candidates?

Every day it's another scandal or apology.

It's a bit like "joke of the day" or "news of the weird"

Too late Rudy you're already guilty of so much shit.

why don't reporters ever ask Rudy about his role in shipping the steel from the WTC to China???

Why don't reporters ever ask Rudy how he knew the buildings were going to collapse BEFORE they did

why don't reporters ask him what he did before 9/11 or ask how 9/11 could have happened on his watch if he is so great at "fighting terrorism"

Rudy is a 9/11 co-conspirator -he and the Bush Crime Family are working together and that's why Rudy will be the next Prez. The election will be rigged just like it was 2004 or it will be another coup like 2000!!

BEFORE 9/11 RUDEBOY WAS ILLEGALLY ARRESTING/DENYING FREEDOM OF SPEECH TO NYC CITIZENS FOR CARRYING SIGNS,POSTERS, AND PAINTINGS DEPICTING GIULY'S TRUE NATURE: AS A GESTAPO OFFICIER IN FULL HITLER GARB.

Like Fred Thompson--with Giuliani, there is less there than first meets the eye.

I am also an Italian-American, that doesn't like Rudy. As most of us know there are good & bad Italian families & Rudy has proven himself to be firmly on the dark-side.

His Dad went to sing-sing jail for sticking up a milkman on his delivery route.

That is the truth.

"The legislation that the firm helped push has moved forward and passed by a voice vote in the House of Representatives in October." So, the Democratic leadership and Democratic majority in the US House of Representatives were "pursuing goals inconsistent with the goals of the USA" when they allowed this legislation to pass, yes?

Too little too late you repugnant turd. You are still going down in flames. Hope you crash and burn.

[Purple Girl]

Rudy has brought the stereotype home to roost.

MUSCLING & LAWYERING- SOUNDS LIKE A 'SAPRANO' SCENARIO.

NO DOUBT HE'S DIRTY.

ASSHOLE !!

Sincerely,
An Italian American.

The Partners have offices in Turkey, Dubai, and Uzbekistan - all central in the heroin trade. I suspect that is why Giuliani suddenly became flush with cash and the media began to call him the front-runner, even though his views differ greatly from much of the Republican base.
