No terrorist attacks under Bush?
So says Rudy Giuliani on Good Morning America
By Sophie Elmhirst Published 08 January 2010 18:41Skip to about 50 seconds in on this video and you'll see Rudy Giuliani on Good Morning America this morning. And what a morning it was, as Giuliani happily rewrote history.
Said Giuliani:
We had no domestic attacks under Bush. We've had one under Obama.
Hang on a second. He seems to have forgotten the shoe bomber. And the anthrax attacks. Oh . . . AND SEPTEMBER 11th! Which happened in New York! While he was mayor!
But aside from those, Giuliani is bang on the money as usual.
Rudy, if you're reading, here's Bush giving a speech, as president, on 11 September 2001, about the terrorist attacks that had just happened that day -- a set of circumstances that seems to call into question your view of history. But I'm impressed by the audacity. Who needs facts when you've got the ability to reorder events in time retrospectively? It's like a historical superpower! But not in a good way.

Yes, it looks like Giuliani is playing mind games again.
Don't forget to google 9/11 and Hurricane Erin folks - that's some news if you ask me...

WHOA BABY ; YOU LEFT OUT THE PART ABOUT RUDY AND JEROME HAUER AND BANDAR AND WOLFOWITZ AND BODINE AND THE GULF WAR AND THE IRAQ WAR . WASUP WWITH THAT .. BUSH 41 AND BUSH 43 USED BANDAR AND WOLFOWITZ TO PLAN THE GULF WAR AND THE IRAQ WAR //
what a disgrace and dishonor to our country and the victims of the terrorist attacks. Appears that Giuliani has taken a permanent leave of absence...no attack under bush??? Is he freakin kidding?
He's right, 'cause Bushco planned and executed the Sept. 11 attacks and no foreigners were involved, except maybe Moussad.
He's just thinking out loud, that's all.
Shut up Rudi, we're all still tryin' to hide our money!
