Good for Rudy!

Isn't it a shame that 6 years after September 11, we still have to defend this country against attacks that it was America's own fault? But Rudi Giuliani handled himself on this point very well in the debate last night, against that crazy Ron Paul, as per this liveblogging account: "Ron Paul buys the moonbat, blame-America line as the cause of global jihad. Goler: Are you suggesting that we invited the 9/11 attacks, sir? Giuliani: That's an extraordinary attack. And I've heard some pretty absurd explanations from the 9/11 attack. Biggest applause of the night. I would ask the congressman to withdraw that comment and tell us he didn't mean it. Ron Paul: I believe sincerely in blowback. If we ignore that, we ignore that at our own risk. They don't come here to attack us because we're rich and free. They attack us because we are over there." Giuliani doesn't want to let it lie. Good for him. Goler changes the subject." Although we have become used to hearing blame-America, blame-Bush 9/11 conspiracy theories from crackpots and Hollywood celebrities, it's more disconcerting and more disturbing to hear it from the lips of a Presidential candidate.
