| I seldom reprint the responses of readers. However, one New Yorker wrote the following, which seemed to reflect the feelings of most every New Yorker who responded to my column: "I lived in NYC for most of my life. Giuliani was the worst mayor the city has ever had. I and millions of New Yorkers [are] well aware of Giuliani's duplicitous, mean, autocratic, and just downright scary personality. His father was a small time mafia enforcer that did prison time. Rudy has many of his father's characteristics. "Thank you for helping to expose this Hitler in waiting. As mayor of NYC, he trashed and spat upon people's rights, especially minorities. He inflamed and divided the peoples of NYC. He opened the city coffers to his corporate crony plunderers and left the city with a monumental deficit. |

| "The International Association of Fire Fighters accused Republican Rudy Giuliani of exploiting the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks because a supporter is holding a $9.11-per-person fundraiser for the presidential candidate." "The union _ already a vocal critic of Giuliani's _ said Tuesday that the fundraiser's "$9.11 for Rudy" theme is an abuse of the image and symbols of the 2001 attacks." |

| "I'm probably one of the four or five best known Americans in the world[/u]," Giuliani told a small group of reporters at a posh London hotel as onlookers gathered in the lobby to gawk at actor Dustin Hoffman, who was on a separate visit." |

| Rudolph W. Giuliani, making an unusual campaign swing outside United Sates, said that he [b]would like to see a broad expansion of NATO alliance, including extending an invitation to Israel. Long a staunch supporter of the Jewish state, Mr. Giuliani said that while such a move might be viewed as provocative, he thought it only natural since they would be “willing to help us in the effort against terrorism.” His suggestion, made in an interview with The New York Times, came a day after Mr. Giuliani talked by phone with Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert, and seemed designed to appeal to Jewish voters in states like New York and Florida that are expected to have a greater role in the nominating process this year because of their early primaries. |

| NOTE: Have you noticed that ALL OF THE TOP TIERED CANDIDATES for President disagree on many issues, but one thing they ALWAYS AGREE ON IS ANYTHING TO DO WITH ISRAEL. Why do you suppose that is, in light of the many infractions Israel has committed against its neighbors? ANSWER: The Powerful Zionist Lobby has the power to stop their getting elected as President, that's why. Time to look into the many tactics this group uses, including intimidation, to manipulate the political scene in Washington and continually get aid for Israel. We're talking Billions, and no questions asked. This New Book tells why our politicians cowtow to the Zionist lobby, and if they speak out against it what happens to them. Every American needs to know what is happening in this regard, because there is intimidation going on that is over the top even for a lobbyist. |

| "Of course, there are pseudo-conservatives who will argue that Giuliani is better than Hillary, because he will not be as prone to raise taxes as Hillary would be. These are the Rockefeller Republicans who could not care less about the murder of unborn babies, or the destruction of the American family, or whether any citizen maintains the right to keep and bear arms, or whether U.S. sovereignty is surrendered, or whether our country is led by a modern Napoleon, or whether America is merged into a North American Union, or whether illegal aliens are granted citizenship, ad infinitum. The only thing they care about is their pocketbook. They are piranhas who only want to manipulate politics to feed their own selfish and greedy interests. They would vote for the devil himself, if he promised them more money |

| George W. Bush has already just about destroyed conservatism within the GOP. A Giuliani nomination would finish the job. |

| "The Giuliani connection to this controversial process is through Bracewell & Giuliani, a law firm he joined as senior partner in 2005. Bracewell has already come in for criticism because it represents Citgo, the oil company controlled by Venezuela's anti-American and terrorist-supporting ruler Hugo Chavez." |

| Intro to Video: One of the nation's largest firefighters unions has accused Republican presidential contender Rudy Giuliani of committing "egregious acts" against firefighters who died in the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks. In a draft letter, the International Association of Fire Fighters criticize the former New York City mayor for cutting back on the number of firefighters searching the rubble of Ground Zero for the remains of other firefighters. The letter reads in part: "Many people consider Rudy Giuliani 'America's Mayor,' and many of our members who don't yet know the real story, may also have a positive view of him. This letter is intended to make all of our members aware of the egregious acts Mayor Giuliani committed against our members, our fallen on 9/11, and our New York City union officers following that horrific day." The union has long assailed the former mayor, but the latest criticism comes as several polls put Giuliani ahead in the race for the Republican nomination. Union officials said the letter was drafted as leaders were deciding whether to invite Giuliani to a presidential candidate forum, but it was never distributed. "The fundamental lack of respect that Giuliani showed our FDNY members is unforgivable - and that's why he was not invited. Our disdain for him is not about issues or a disputed contract, it is about a visceral, personal affront to the fallen, to our union and, indeed, to every one of us who has ever risked our lives by going into a burning building to save lives and property," the letter said. |

| The Urban Legend about America's Mayor needs to be balanced by the truth. The firefighters paint a very different picture of Rudy, than that carefully crafted picture he painted for himself. |

| Thus, the notion that Canada is "socialized medicine" is incorrect , since socialized medicine refers to a system in which the government owns the means of delivering healthcare (For Example: the British National Health System, in which most physicians and healthcare facilities are in the public sector). |
| QUOTE |
| The system is known as a "public system" due to its public financing, but is not a nationalized system such as the UK's NHS; most services are provided by private enterprises, such as clinics or doctors who are paid a fee-per-visit. Canadians have free choice of doctors and can change doctors at any time they wish. While often called a socialized-public system it is in fact merely publicly funded. |

| As President, Giuliani would grab even more executive power than Bush and Cheney. His mayoralty tells the story. |
