Rudy Giuliani makes fun of Parkinson's patient on air

Rudy takes a phone call on his weekly Mayor's radio show, but the caller isn't too happy that Giuliani has cut off public aid and medicine assistance to disabled New Yorkers.

... jeez.

I agree that swiftboating is not the appropriate term, as its not his foggy recollection that he's basing his anti-Guiliana opinions on. HOWEVER, the creators of this clip are using now-classic viral techniques that are indicative of swiftboating-style allegations.

Jeez yourself.

Viral does not necessarily mean untruthful; "Swiftboating" does.
I don't see an attempt to make Giuliani look as if he hates people with disabilities;
I think it's supposed to make him look like the jackass he was being at that moment.
Clearly, Rudy didn't realize what was wrong with the guy, but like I said, it wasn't very presidential of him.

Of course, he also dressed in drag on SNL, so this may be the least of his worries.

upvote for title...Giuliani makes a fool of himself daily on air...an honest??? putty?....mouldable,useable, most of all expendable, Ex-Mayor, USA....might as well have smoked crack on TV, as woke up tomorrow....as presidential as a flaming cold sore...

this could be YOU!

KnivesOutsays...

No... if you're a public servant, you handle the angry caller like he's a member of the public that you serve. You treat him with every respect, and worst case you get him off the line asap. Hanging up on the guy would've been better than making fun of his apparent speech impediment.

And this is just one of countless instances caught on tape of former Mayor (now Saint) Giuliani cursing out constituents, calling reporters who disagreed with him lunatics, shouting down questions, abusing the homeless, justifying police abuse, battling his ex-wife, marrying his cousin . . .

I pray that Giuliani is the Republican nominee in 2008. The Democrats will win every state.
