Turn Down the Noise says Rudy Giuliani

Rudy Giuliani’s campaign seems intent on releasing highly controversial video ads. I don’t think they see it that way, though. They probably think these ads are clever, they don’t see them as insulting anyone’s intelligence. The campaign needs to badly clear itself of the 9/11 responses to all questions that Rudy Giuliani engaged in throughout his primary campaign.
Rudy Giuliani would like you to forget his exploitation of 9/11 and just have faith in government. That’s right, just trust him, I dare you!

Countrywide Controversy - CEO Scandal
January 11, 2008 | Filed Under News, Scandals | 1 Comment
Well, suffice to say that it got my attention. Here’s an excerpt from the article:
Mozilo has two pensions that his severance agreement gives him the right to receive as a lump sum upon his departure. Those pensions were worth $24 million as of December 2006, the last time the company was required to report their value.
There is more. The Times reports Mozilo would receive continuing health benefits for life for himself and his spouse, three years of life and financial planning benefits, and “tax-gross-up payments” to compensate him for any penalties he’d have to pay for receiving payments the IRS might consider excessive.
Given the slashing of 10,900 jobs at Countrywide this year, and the 81% decline in Countrywide stock over the last year, it is likely Mozilo’s severage package will prove more controversial than his previous stock sales.

Ron Paul takes on Fox News
During tonight’s Republican Debate Ron Paul got slammed by the moderator with a nasty question but he held his own.
After the debate was over, Frank Luntz, the resident Fox News “expert” was spoon-feeding Florida natives with the “winner” Fred Thompson and “loser” Ron Paul. I’ve never seen a media network so intent on sabotaging a political candidate. This should outrage all Americans, conservatives included. Fox News thinks you are a bunch of idiots, and the way the debate played out… they showed that they have no respect for your intelligence.

Classic moments of the Democratic Nomination primary
In a jovial moment during one of the Democratic debates, this has to be one of the best ideological zingers of the primary season. Joe Biden said that all Rudy Giuliani knows is three words, “a noun, a verb, and 9/11″.
