Rudy Speaks

By TChris

A condensation of Rudy Giuliani's convention speech:

We always tell you that this is the most important election ever. It's never true. Except this time.

If you were hiring someone for a job, would you hire a foot soldier in the Reagan revolution or a [guffaw and sneer] "community organizer"?

Did you know John McCain was a POW?

It was so tough for Obama to decide whether to vote yes or no in the Illinois legislature that he voted "present" 130 times. When I was mayor, and when Palin was mayor and governor, we didn't vote "present." (Of course, mayors and governors don't vote at all, but let's move on.)

Obama was a celebrity senator. Republicans don't have celebrity politicians, unless you count Arnold Schwarzenegger and Sonny Bono.

A president needs to stay awake until 3 a.m. Hillary could do that. Can Obama stay awake that late? I don't think so. [more ...]

McCain will keep us safe. He stays up really late.

This election is not about change versus more of the same. It's about good change versus bad change. Bad change is bad. Hope is bad. McCain will give us hopeless change. That's good.

McCain will do away with taxes and government and foreign oil. Nuclear power and offshore drilling will keep us safe.

[crowd chants "drill baby drill" for an embarrassingly long time -- I'm not joking]

Obama will increase the size of government. No Republican president would ever do that, right?

Democrats are afraid to say the words "Islamic terrorism." Republicans are not afraid to insult Islam.

Democrats have forgotten 9/11. Not McCain. He's going to bring us victory. In fact, he already did by inventing the surge. The surge has something to do with 9/11, doesn't it? Did I mention 9/11?

Obama flip-flops. [crowd boos] McCain would never do that. Biden should get that VP thing in writing.

Obama steals McCain's ideas. Obama is a copycat.

McCain is a maverick and so is Palin. You can see it in their eyes.

What's that? I'm out of time? No time left to show the Palin video? Did everyone notice the flag pin on my lapel? Did I mention 9/11?
