Giuliani slams Clinton for not being in NYC on 9/11

[Rocknrule]

Source: The Hill

Rudy Giuliani told supporters at a Donald Trump campaign rally on Wednesday that he didn't recall seeing Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton in New York City on 9/11.

"Yes, you helped to get benefits for the people that were injured that day," the former New York City mayor said to an approving crowd. "But I heard her say one day she was there that day. I was there that day. I don’t remember seeing Hillary Clinton there."

Clinton, a senator representing New York at the time, was in Washington, D.C., on Sept. 11, 2001, the day terrorists attacked New York City and the Pentagon.

She traveled to New York City a day later and visited the site of the attacks on the Twin Towers.

1. How could anyone forget 9/11?

It was Obama's biggest failure!

[Angry Dragon]

9. ..........

[CarrieLynne]

69. Guliani forgot a couple months ago - pretty easy to do i guess lol

[LakeVermilion]

2. Noun, Verb, 911;

All about him.

[Siwsan]

3. That man absolutely reeks of desperation

I surrounds him like a thick, heavy fog.

[SDJay]

4. This Asshole Was There

Soaking up all the camera time he could as he ignored questions about why would any dumb fuck put his office where it was instead of where those who actually know WTF they're doing told him to put it.

Other than Drumpf himself, I'm not sure anyone has done more harm to his or her self image than this asswipe, and he was an asswipe before any of this even got started.

Every time I see his name, I instantly flash back to the 08 convention when he laughed at Obama for being a community organizer. What an idiot! HELPING POOR PEOPLE! BAH!

F him.

[Frank Cannon]

5. STFU, Rudy.

What the hell does Donald Trump have on this idiot?

[47of74]

16. "caught in bed with either a dead girl or a live boy"

Yeah, don't try to picture that too much either.

[George II]

41. Maybe Rudy was in the room snapping pictures of Trump raping that 13-year old girl...

....and doesn't want anyone to know it?

[Cha]

66. He doesn't need to have anything.. rudy's just a low life.

[LiberalLovinLug]

68. I think its a good exercise to examine

Which Republicans fall off the bandwagon
And which ones grab the reigns to crazytown
It separates those with at least a modicum of self respect on one side, along with a fear of losing their own seats of course......
And those that are pumped so full of adrenalin and drooling at the prospects of heir Drumpf bestowing powerful federal offices for them to command for him under his Presidency..(even though they say they hate government), that they will swallow everything and then hold it in long enough to do a string of damage control press interviews the next day.

[VWolf]

6. "But I heard her say one day"

That's his evidence? Really?

You know what I heard Rudy say one day?
"I molest Collies"
It MUST be true.

[GWC58]

7. America's Mayor!?!

No, but you are Murica's Steaming pile of DOGSHIT! Hey Rudy! STFU, ASSHOLE!!😡😲

[Journeyman]

8. She was probably busy to helping ensure the nation as a whole was safe and secure . . .

that's what Senators do (or should).

Here's an interesting comparison of what Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump did and said that fateful day. (As usual, Trump seemed obsessed with size. Clinton with the need to respond in a measured, intelligent way.)

[George II]

33. Who is that masked woman? And why are they wearing masks since bush's.....

.....Administrator of the Environmental Protection Agency, Whitman, claim that the air down there was perfectly safe (which is why hundreds have contracted cancer and other diseases because of breathing in that foul air?

[Thinkingabout]

36. Where is Trump, don't see him in this photo, by Guiliani's reasoning Trump doesn't care.

[underpants]

39. He was busy watching New Jersey Arabs dancing in the streets

from his penthouse apartment. Did I mention that it was a penthouse?

[Thinkingabout]

58. Oh yes, I forgot he was a public servant watching over NJ.

[murielm99]

52. FFS, he's as bad as Trump.

We can use his own words, and pictures, against him.

[Foggyhill]

13. Considering she was direct target in dc

The place the other planes were heading... and was in NYC the day after, this is idiotic

That they didn't target the Capitol instead of the pentagon is still a mystery to me

[4lbs]

15. It has been concluded that Flight 93, the one that went down in Pennsylvania, was headed towards

either the White House or Congress.

The trajectory after it turned around placed it as heading towards that area. The distance between the White House and Congress is just slightly more than a mile, or 4 city blocks.

[underpants]

40. *

12 city blocks is usually a mile.

[4lbs]

50. Not in my Southern California. One city block, lengthwise is often about 1300 feet. Add in the

street widths in between the blocks.

I live about 0.92 miles from my old high school. There are four streets in between.

[underpants]

53. Okay

I stand corrected. Pretty much everywhere else a mile is 12 city blocks. It's a runners way of measurement.

[4lbs]

56. Ah interesting. It does appear to be a nonstandard size, a city block.

In Southern California, city blocks are very rectangular, so there is a very long side and a short side.

The short side, it just might be that 12 can fit in a mile.

The long side though, is definitely about 1/4 mile.

So, I would venture that we are both correct.

[dsc]

17. remember one plane that was headed to dc was forced down instead

that plane was either headed to the white house or the capitol we don't know which.

[LastLiberal in PalmSprings]

59. I vote the Capitol

Bigger target, more symbolic, harder to miss (a big white target), more difficult to rebuild. I think the Pentagon was hit because the pilot didn't know how to make a descending turn.

Doesn't diminish the actual damage and tragic loss of life, though.

[George II]

35. At 9:42 AM the FAA shut down ALL flights in the country!

[mahatmakanejeeves]

45. For that matter, Flight 77, the one that crashed into the Pentagon,

was on a flight path that would have taken it to the Capitol in another 60 seconds. The Pentagon couldn't be more than about three miles from the Capitol.

Flight 77's path over northern Virginia, which I used to be able to find on the web (I'll look), had it coming into the Pentagon from the west-southwest. It was flying east over Arlington County's Columbia Pike, Route 244 on the map. How it cleared the Sheraton at Washington Boulevard I'll never know.

Route 7 is King Street in Alexandria. Route 402 is Quaker Lane. Alexandria's T.C. Williams High School is approximately at the intersection of King Street and Quaker Lane (give or take). Flight 77 flew east-southeast directly over T.C. Williams before turning about 270 degrees to the right. One of my neighbors was a senior there, and he said that the kids saw the plane fly over. It must have been unusually low.

Here's the path, from Wikipedia. It was taken from the NTSB report.

[mahatmakanejeeves]

14. She should have made a note on her Franklin Day Runner that the planes were scheduled to crash

into the WTC later that day?*

Barring that, there's the small matter that the FAA ordered every commercial flight out of the skies.**

Not that that matters.

* Kids, before there were smartphones, and even before there were Palm PDAs, there was this: Franklin Planner. They used to be called Day Runners.

** and general aviation too. To be correct, I should say non-military flights.

19. Shut the fuck up Rudy

[forest444]

20. As opposed to Rudy, who had refused to replace NY firefighters' outdated walkie-talkies

thus leading to dozens of preventable firefighter deaths.

I might add he just happened to be at an emergency command post he didn't even know existed - and he was taken there, just minutes before 9/11. That's "America's mayor" for you.

[world wide wally]

21. If you were there, Rudy, why didn't you stop those planes, Mr Hero?

[Mc Mike]

22. Welcome change from Giuliani. Last I heard, he said 9/11 attacks didn't even occur.

[Initech]

23. OMG, really? That's where he's going?

[underpants]

54. Does he remember seeing Bernie Kerik?

Bernie hadn't started using the donated apartment yet.

[La Lioness Priyanka]

25. delete this post. so gross.

and just so it is clear, i mean that it's gross that the worst thing you can think about guiliani is the time he was in drag.

your post is gross.

[Tribalceltic]

57. deleted per your request

I would appreciate you explaining what you found "gross" about it. I posted it because it really shows the hypocrisy of the republican mindset. I have the highest regard for anyone who is transgendered, but detest the way rudy makes a joke of it and the republicans demonize and make false statements about TG people.

[LuvNewcastle]

26. She was already in D.C., and that wasn't a good day

for travel. All the planes were grounded, for one thing. This might be the stupidest remark I've heard about Hillary, and there have been some doozies. It doesn't concern me much though, because there won't be many who are fooled by it. People still remember that day vividly.

[mahatmakanejeeves]

27. "This might be the stupidest remark I've heard about Hillary,..."

Give him a chance. It's still only 3:03 p.m. He has the rest of the day to top himself.

[LuvNewcastle]

38. I can't help but wonder what people like Giuliani

are getting for being Trump surrogates. They've probably been promised jobs, of course, but that's a long shot. What are they getting now?

[yardwork]

61. Trump probably knows things about Giuliani that he's threatened to expose.

[Shankapotomus]

28. I doubt anyone not already there

was allowed anywhere near NYC on the day it happened.

[Coventina]

31. Correct, all roads and bridges to Manhattan were closed.

Outgoing traffic only.

[George II]

37. As were all flights in and out of the city and surroundings (at 9:08 AM) and later (9:42 AM)....

....all flights in and out anywhere in the country were shut down. Flights already on their way to the US were rerouted to airports outside the country (most frequently Canada).

I know some people who spent three days in Gander, Newfoundland because they were enroute from Rome that morning.

Rudy is just a senile, insane, hateful person.

[RobinA]

62. Well, Then She

should have walked up I-95. That's what a caring person would do. I guess she just didn't have the stamina.

[George II]

63. She wound up flying to NYC on a Homeland Security plane either later in the day or the next morning.

[The_Casual_Observer]

29. And to think that people used to respect this guy.

He has done himself a great deal of harm.

[Coventina]

30. She was doing her job in D. C. What an idiot!

What, she's supposed to neglect her duties as senator so that she can be in NYC in case of terror attack?

I seriously worry he might be going senile.

[George II]

32. SHE WAS DOING HER JOB that day. Does Adulterer-in-chief forget that bush's FAA...

....shut down ALL flights (except for the one that flew bush's Saudi friends out of the country) for three days?

bush wasn't in New York on September 11, either, nor was DICK Cheney or anyone else.

[turbinetree]

34. Hey Rudy, FU, I lost my mechanic job at United Airlines in New Jersey, you D***head

because your F***ing appointed president who was reading My Pet Goat in Florida looked like he had deer head eyes looking in a car lights at night, when he was informed in the children's class room and that old S**t look, and dismissed the intelligence briefings in August, while we in the aviation business saw things, because we were told to be vigilant at our level, and to report things, we did.

The next day after I pushed off the Flt 93 Aircraft (B757) that morning on 9/11, and when I came back into work that night I can still remember seeing the smoke and emptiness, while your right wing hypocrite said that there there thousands of Muslims over in New Jersey laughing, and he could see them, FU, I worked with three Muslims at the Liberty New Jersey Airport and they were not laughing and I considered them good friends, yesterday and today.

My wife's sister was near the pentagon and watched the B757 crash into the pentagon and one of her fellow workers at USAir at the time saw it happen

So F*** yourself and the horse you road in on, your a racist and bigot.

And now America's supposed mayor, you support a racist and bigot. and for the life of me I do not understand why the media just doesn't ask you: Are you a racist and bigot, is that what America's mayors are suppose to do?

[NHDEMFORLIFE]

42. Lord this man is pathetic

He has spent a solid 15 years reminding everyone of his service as mayor on 9/11. Apparently he will spend the rest of his life continuing to do so.
He cannot get over the fact that he was rejected as a national candidate and is now generally considered a ghoul for trying to keep himself in the public eye by dredging up the souls of all who died that day,
If that isn't pathetic I don't know what is.

[olddad56]

43. someday, the real truth will come out about 911, and Giuliani's part in it won't be pretty

[riversedge]

46. I can imagine that this personally hurts Hillary--even if she does

not hint at it. New Yorker's --and outside of NCY --know Rudy is being a vile creep by saying this at the rally. Nasty man to not only diss Hillary but to use 9/11 to make a political point.

[lark]

47. No wonder he and drumpf are bff's.

Both re total liars, there's video of Clinton in NY on 9/12.

[JI7]

48. ghouliani acts like 9-11 belongs him

[Gothmog]

49. Is Rudy Giuliani Losing His Mind?

Politico;s theories about Rudy are being proven correct http://www.politico.com/magazine/story/2016/09/rudy-giuliani-donald-trump-2016-214207

[freebrew]

51. Who?...nt

[DRoseDARs]

60. How dare she not have prior knowledge of the attacks?

You trying to tell us something, Rudy? Seems like a careless thing to say in public, might warrant some questions about YOUR prior knowledge...

[rtracey]

64. Lying POS

http://www.foxnews.com/us/2016/10/12/giuliani-wrongly-accuses-clinton-lying-about-11.html

[Rocknrule]

65. 9/11 was like Christmas for the GOP

[Retrograde]

67. Um, because she was doing her job?

In Washington, DC, which is where senators work.

Of course, if she had been in New York City he would be accusing her of having advance knowledge of the attacks...

[Montauk6]

70. Good thing he copped to the--ahem--error

Obviously, the little dig was to imply the then-Senator was out of the loop during this tragedy. But, sorry....
