Anyone who can't see the true CORRUPT GULIANI is a complete MORON. IF YOU VOTE FOR GUILIANI, YOU DESERVE WHAT YOU GET...

Gary Hart, all over again.

It appears as if Mayor Rudy Giuliani finally found the perfect match for him, for now. He changes women like he changes his mind, constantly.

Anyone really surprised? He's a natural for the presidency w/ the current state of affairs. I'm sickened that he calls himself a republican, much less an American. As higher forms of life go, I'd rate him at just under STD's, and just above the amoeba.

Hmmmmm...looks like some powerful Republican opponents are about to "swiftboat" the beloved mayor. Mitt, Mitt? Are you listening? By the way, I wonder what Mitt will name his planet in the afterlife?

Go,Rodney,go. The gloves are off.

What? You mean both halves ofthe Rudy and Judy show acted "a little bit nutty and a little bit slutty?" Rudey Julie Annie? NO!!!!

In this corner weighing in as most adulterous the current champions Bradgelina...in the other corner the challengers Rudyjudy..... and the winner is RUDYJUDY!!!!....

I love in particular the "security concerns" dodge. That sounds exactly like what the current administration says whenever they want to keep their shady politicking and cronyism hidden.

I remember when it was considered to be really bad when politicians used their position of power to carry on affairs behind their wive's back.

Unfortunately, after Slick Willie's time in the White House, there is no behavior that would be bad enough to scandalize a President (or Presidential Candidate) short of murder. Everything that would have been a scandal in the past is simply dismissed as normal behavior from a politician...

The hilarious thing about this is that the ONLY excuse Rudy has is that he had no idea where his mistress escapades were being billed. But, c'mon, you're running for President! Is ignorance really a good strategy right now??

It doesn't matter to me, even if it is completely true. What matters most to me are RESULTS and Rudy did an exemplary job leading NYC out of the financial and crime black hole left by previous administrations.

Just another feather in Rooty's cap. The Repubs just love lying, adulterous, thieves. It must be some sort of psychosis due to being closeted for so long.

Doesn't matter to me, even if this story is total true, which I doubt. RESULTS matter most to me and Rudy did an exemplary job bring NYC back to life and back to the civilized world.

Simple Question for Giuliani: "Did Judi Nathan receive city-paid security or transportation in 2000, when you were still married to Donna Hanover?"

Bye bye Rudy!! We hardly knew ya!!!!

That's only when you're not charging it to the government.

A clear case of theft of City money - pure and simple.

Wonder if he will be held accountable???

He sounds like he'll make a great Republican candidate. He can carry on the tradition that has marked his party's legislative and executive track record of corruption, perversion, and deceit over the last 7 years.

Getting a perfectly consensual hummer from an intern is one thing, having the secret service act as her personal limousine service afterward would have been something else entirely.

Clinton's scandals seems positively silly compared to the flagrant abuse of power and contempt for the taxpayer on display here.

America was stupid enought to elect Slick Willie - TWICE so what's the fuss about? At least Rudy wasn't caught in the White House or Mayors Office. It's beginning to be a pre-requisite to qualifying for president of the U.S. - if you haven't committed adultery you can't run. Somehow the Bush men got in, amazing isn't it?

He was corrupt then and now also - just ask his family (wife, daughter and son) how evil this man that you (the media) want to be president is, but you wanted George Bush also - see what he has done to us poor people.

John D Infidel - please tell me you lived in NY during that time.

When he got elected I choose to move to New Jersey.

What's the issue? Did you expect the babe to walk?

How much did Bill Clinton's mistress Monica cost the taxpayers? Bill Clinton set the moral standards for us. Who cares about Rudy's escapades?

Ruh-roh Rudy!! And its just beginning!!!

mistresses get police protection, too? did Monica get a Secret Service contingent? I doubt it... would Republicants have raised a stink if she did? you bet!

The GOP doesn't even HAVE a candidate. The conservative base will not come out in droves to support either of the top contenders (due to their support of RoevWade, their corruption, etc). Reagan called this the Republican "shame" that keeps conservatives home on election day. The Dems come out in full force and they take the White House in '08.

First it was Bernie and Judith Regan.Now Rudy is in on the act.Where is Kenneth Starr when we need him?

Is there no one left in the United States that is actually honest, trustworthy and gives a damn about the US citizens? I wish all the canditates would fall into a swirling vacumn and dissapear from the radar...All of them have money, power and connections. Why doesn't someone worthy stand up. Hell at this point, I would take Lou Dobbs over them all!

I know I speak for at least a million voters of the conservative base. If Guilliani is the nominee, we are bolting and will actively support a 3rd party run by a moral and fiscal Reagan conservative.

For now, watch Mike Huckabee. He's my man. I Like Mike!

Gary Hart, all over again.

There was no corruption or diversion of taxpayer funds. You meant Clinton all over again, and the american public didn't care about that, either.

A Gallup Poll found that nearly two-thirds (64%) of the U.S. respondents it surveyed thought the media treatment of Hart was "unfair." A little over half (53%) responded that marital infidelity had little to do with a president's ability to govern.

Wow, Romney comes under heat for his religion, yet Giuliani is leading a polygamist life with two "wives" under security, simultaneously.

so let me get this straight we can impeach a guy about lying about a BJ and point to that and call him a mockery of a President, but Had he been a republican it would have been cool. Especially if he'd had the secret service drive her home after??

what cost us about Slick Willie's BJ was the cost of the investigation and impeachment, what party started that???.

Mr. and Mrs. Giuliani (all of them) even make the Clintons' marriage look like a model of virtue and fidelity!

How about following up on the connected and even more egregious allegation? That pre-9/11 Rudy moved the NYC Emergency Command center next in the WTC7 - which had already been the subject of one terrorist attack - so that it would be within walking distance of the Mayor's office, and so that Rudy & Judith could used the office like a cheap motel?

The result of letting little Rudi doing all the thinking was that the Emergency Control Center was useless on 9/11.

What happened to "America's Mayor"? Isn't he a man who prides himself on being on top of everything and in the know? If he can't explain the accounting of his personal expenses on the city's tab, how does he think that he's equipped to be president?

Guiliani did a great job as Mayor of New York. What he did after work doesn't concern me. Nevertheless, he was required to have a 24/7 security detail. He had no choice in the matter. How the NYPD accounted for the costs was not under Guiliani's direct control and he should not bear the blame for sloppy accounting on the part of some clerk in NY City government.

Do any of you really think Guiliani micro-managed every aspect of NY City government? I think that he had bigger issues to worry about than to what account his security detail's expenses should be billed. This is just more ineffective pre-election dirt dished up by his political opponents.

This is what happens when you give power to scum like Giuliani.

Sally Gal - No I didn't live in NYC during that time, nor did you since you moved out after he was elected. I do have many colleagues and friends who live in NYC and all of the praise Rudy (abeit some reluctantly).

The GOP clearly doesn't even HAVE a candidate. The conservative base cannot, in good conscience, vote in someone who is pro-choice (as both GOP front-runners are, despite their recent U-turn). The conservative base will not come out in droves, and the Dems take the White House in '08.

God forbid we put a tough guy in the White House! Already convicting the guy and you don't have any facts. Go ahead and vote for one of the surrender monkeys. I will vote for Rudy and I WILL get what I ask for. And for all you right wingers who don't vote for Rudy, way to throw away your vote!

"America was stupid enought to elect Slick Willie - TWICE so what's the fuss about? At least Rudy wasn't caught in the White House or Mayors Office."

No, he was not caught in the mayor's office.

That's the whole point. He was taking his adultery on the road, at taxpayer expense.

This is one CONSERVATIVE who's totally disgusted by Rudy. I have been very disappointed in my party for supporting this man. He's dishonest, obviously, and isn't a conservative.

Unethical behavior is bad no matter which side of the aisle you're on!

No, Louis, it's not Gary Hart all over again. Gary Hart had a fling, but he didn't send the bills to the taxpayers.

A lot of politicians fool around, and as far as I'm concerned that's between the politician and his/her spouse. But having the taxpayers foot the bill for a mistress is another matter.

Also, it gets worse. Rudy put his command center in the World Trade Center against the advice of just about everyone (the WTC was already bombed once, in 1993), but he wanted it within walking distance of his office, so he could sneak over there for trysts. With no command center, communication on 9/11 was all messed up, so more firefighters died ... all for the convenience of the mayor and his mistress.

It doesn't seem to matter to the Rudy backers that he is of little moral character, takes credit for things in which he should not (9/11 response and the general economic growth of the Clinton '90's), flip flops on most every subject and surrounds himself with cronies and criminals. Now with the revelations of his consulting company and terrorists in the Quatar ruling elite happily doing business with each other it shows that Rudy's god is money.

When the Democratic New York State Controller was caught improperly having his wife chauffeured around at state expense he was forced from office. Do we have a double standard here?

Wasn't Alan Hevisi forced from office and convicted for similar conduct?

It will be great when he buys the Presidency, he can use Airforce One for his mistress.

It's a pity ABC wasn't doing the same kind of hard-hitting journalism in 1991. Wonder who the next Republican victim of their "reportage" will be.

"It doesn't matter to me, even if it is completely true. What matters most to me are RESULTS and Rudy did an exemplary job leading NYC out of the financial and crime black hole left by previous administrations."

Funny you should say that as it was under Dinkins that the police budget was expanded by $1,000,000,000 and crime was already dropping and it is also true that when Guiliani took office the nation's economy & NYC's started to rebound for which Guiliani can take no credit.

Rudy would have you believe that everything good that happened in NYC was because he was the 'man in charge' including a lower rate of abortions. Rudy takes credit for everything.

In this new instance Rudy not only screwed his former wife, his paramour, Judy, and now we find he did the same to the taxpayers.

Fake 9-11 hero Rudy Giuliani's presidential campaign is imploding right before our eyes.
The republican controlled media will soon want nothing to do with this adulterer.
Huckabee will probably end up as the republican media darling -and therefore the candidate.
One thing you can always count on is that republicans will vote for whoever they are told to vote for by the likes of FOX News and CNN.
The only candidate that stands a chance against the media fueled republican machine is Hillary Clinton.
Therefore, look for the republican controlled media to do everything it possibly can to diminish Hillary's standing in the primaries.
They do Not want a fight with Hillary on their hands.
They instead want a 3rd or 4th string airhead candidate like Obama or Edwards that they can easily demolish.

this isn't just about marital infidelity - something endemic to Republican politicians - but also about misappropriation of public funds for private use, AND a sloppy attempt to hide it.

this is the death-knell for Mr. (11's candidacy, although he'll flop around for a while.

I told you that Rudy G was going to make Bill C look like a saint; it's going to be hard for women to vote Rudy G when all the wash comes out. He seems to be a little bit of a pervert.

gerald

If this was about Clinton, this would be the top story for, oh, about a year.

There IS a God.

It's a pity ABC wasn't doing the same kind of hard-hitting journalism in 1991. Wonder who the next Republican victim of their "reportage" will be.

Republican victims?

Bwahahaha! Let's hope they are all victims of their own device.

I am so glad this stuff is coming out! They are just the sickest couple, besides his sense of entitlement and abuse of privilege.

Mike Huckabee should be our next president. I like Mike. He is a solid Good man.

I find it funny when people complain about what Clinton did and then use that as the excuse for their approval of other's behavior.

It's not wrong because someone else did it? If Clinton + adultry = bad, then Guiliani + adultry = bad. Adultry is bad, period.

If you really think that the moral standards of Presidents started or ended with Clinton, you're an idiot. Clinton wasn't the first boob to take office and he's not the last.

Sounds like both the democrats & republicans have a person to carry on the bill clinton show -- hillary will continue the appeazement of the terrorists & everyone else, and the what is, is for bubba and giuliani will carry on the money grabbing & sleazy affairs.

But.....but......Pat Robertson backed him. Let's hear what Pat Robertson has to say now.

[cue crickets]

Rudy's favorite song is "Smooth Operato," by Sade!

We now know who won the fight between Rudy's conscience and tumescence.

Clinton did it too doesn't make it okay.

It makes you a hypocrite.

If you gave Clinton hell for what he did and will still vote for this scumbag, then by all means do so, but you owe Bill an apology.

The only thing that doesn't make this typical Republican behavior is that Rudy's lover wasn't gay.

Rudy is screaming bloody murder about this, that it's a "Hit Job". And now this new revelation about the NYPD Taxi Service! Many responders are saying that it's "Not Important" and are dismissing the story because Rudy wasn't in charge of the accounting.
Well it is a big deal. These expenses were intentionally miscoded to other city agencies. It was Bloomberg's Controller that raised these questions to begin with. Based on the amount reported in Politico, this comes out to $0.14 Rudy owes each and every New Yorker for these questionable expenses.
Who cooked the books for Rudy? What accountant under whose authority posted these expenses where they were eventually found? Did Deputy Mayor Joe Lhota direct this? If so why? Robert M. Harding and Adam L. Barsky both served as Director of the NYC Office Of Management and Budget under Giuliani, do either of these men know how or why these expenses were intentionally miscoded? Are they responsible? This whole thing stinks to high heck. I think questions need to be asked to determine who was involved in this. After talking to Joe Lhota maybe Harding or Barsky would be a good people to address these questions. Someone has to know something and New Yorkers, if not the entire nation, deserve answers.

People trying to equate what Rudy is accused of doing with what Clinton did, are being ingenuous and trying to divert attention from the main issue here:

-In Rudy's case, the appearance is that he misused NYC taxpayers' $ to chuaffeur his mistress, and pay expenses associated with her and their affair. And then may have attempted to hide the facts, and stonewall official investigation.The extra stink here is the odour of financial corruption, and the apparent coverup.

-In Clinton's case, Bill wasn't charging
the American taxpayer big bucks for his oval office "sessions" with Monica. Monica wasn't given a free chauffeur service, or resort weekends at taxpayers' expense. There was no financial corruption associated with the Lewinsky case.

-Rudy's toast now. Adios amigo!

Rudy is a piece of dirt and he always was. Sure NYC was better but remember a vibrant economy and a crime bill that put 100,000 new cops on the street was as much a factor as his tough gestapo like tactics. Mayor Bloomberg has improved the city without treating minorities like dirt as Giuliani did. His own family doesn't like them. That should tell you all you need to know.

Remeber Dukakis in the tank? Wait until all the transvestite pics of Rudy appear. He's toast - time to start looking for a different serial adulterer.

I add my sentiments regarding Mike Hukabee. If the Voters of the United States don't vote Mike in as the next President, YOU the United States of America is lost. You would have convinced me that you don't have any moral vision. Come on Americans, God's precious gift the the world. Wake up!

Take a little advise from the North-eh!

Did Guiliani write a signing statement to accomplish the footdragging. You know, like how Bush does it all the time? lol

Rudy: Against-publicly funded health care For- publicly funded adultery.

Lets have a paradigm shift -

Mike Huckabee can beat Hillary Clinton! He's got what it takes...

LET ME GET THIS STRAIGHT....

WHEN MOST PEOPLE DIAL 9-1-1 THEY HAVE THE OPTION OF AN AMBULANCE.

WHEN "SHE" DIALS 9-1-1 SHE GETS A TAXI !!!!!

DOES RUDY KNOW HOW TO IMPRESS HIS MISTRESS OR WHAT ?

If Ms. Nathan was not an employee of the City of New York, and not a close relative of the mayor of New York, who in the Police Department authorized these expenses?

Is there a crony in the house?

Doesn't this mean that someone owes the City of New York money?

If Rudy Giuliani is elected, we will have another president who beleives that he is above the law.

A typical liberal hit site . Like HRC and Slick Willie are above all the human failings. Give me a break !

God I am so sick of this man. Flip-flopping foot-dragging no good shyster. Please vote for someone else.

so tell me.............

when will Rudy REFUND the taxpayers of New York for his sexual escapades?

Mr. 9/11 should donate every dime of the TENS-OF-MILLIONS made on speaking engagments off the backs of grieving New Yorkers.............

This guy has no shame.

AND Hillary used the state police as babysitters for Chelsea. AND Bill used the state police to arrange meetings for sex with his mistresses.

Well, Wayne Barrett has an even more revealing look at Rotten Rudy (the tree that never stops sprouting new branches)...this on his amazing post 9/11 business dealing with Qatar...one of the major funders and refuges for Al Qaida both pre and post 9/11....an amazing read by the guy who wrote THE BOOK on Rudy, "Grand Illusion"....

And a reminder that the self-annointed "expert on terrorism" refused to serve on the Iraq Study Group because he needed to pad his personal coffers with his businesses and motivational speeches....OK, fine. But this guy is one "grand illusion"....

Troopergate, all over again.

A typical liberal hit site . Like HRC and Slick Willie are above all the human failings. Give me a break !

Rudy had a duty not to squander NYC's scarce public resources. It is shameful; among other destinations his creative bookkeepers found for these expenses were an agency that provides legal services to the indigent. He is very unpopular in NYC and I've no doubt that sources within the government will unearth other venal revelations.

Compared with what Bill Cliton di in the White House and in the Governor's Mansion in Arkansas - nothing!

Compared with what Hillary did in the White House and in Arkansas and in the Senate and what she will do if she becomes President - nothing!

This is just more Hillysmears!

Stick a fork in him...He is DONE DONE DONE...WELL DONE. Like most republicans with zero talking points, tanking radio right wing wackos, pursed lips and furtive glances. I am glad all repubs are so religious because the comedy they drool out has to be GOD DRIVEN. DRIVING MISS JUDY by the NYPD's finest. Should be a movie, EH?????

And how many people want it investigated how Marilyn Monroe got to sneak in to see John Kennedy??? Anyone think she took her private car?
