Giuliani exploits 9/11 in bid to save fading campaign

December 27, 2007

By Dennis Zaki - Rudy Giuliani's fading campaign has come up with a new television ad that once again exploits September 11th and neglects to mention his failures before, during and after the terrorist attack. (See video below)

In the ad Giuliani compares the firefighters he saw at Ground Zero to the members of the "greatest generation" that fought in World War II.

"And during the day of September 11 living through the things that I saw and observed. Immediately, when I saw people helping each other. I saw the picture of the firefighters putting the flag up at ground zero. I said, these are the children or grandchildren or great-grandchildren of the greatest generation. They have the same resolve. The same understanding," says Giuliani.

"When you challenge Americans, there's no country that stands up stronger and better than the United States of America. When you try and take something away from us like freedom, my goodness, Americans are going to be one in resisting you," he says. "So, the Islamic terrorists would make a terrible mistake if they confuse our democracy for weakness. Our democracy means we disagree with each other, but when you come and try and take away from us our freedom. When you try and come here and kill our people. We're one and we're going to stand up to you and we're going to prevail."

In October Joe Biden mocked Giuliani during the MSNBC debate about his constant tactic to scare voters about 9/11 - "And the irony is, Rudy Giuliani, probably the most underqualified man since George Bush to seek the presidency, is here talking about any of the people here. Rudy Giuliani... I mean, think about it! Rudy Giuliani. There's only three things he mentions in a sentence -- a noun, a verb, and 9/11. There's nothing else!"
