Edwards Statement on Giuliani Comments
John Edwards for President
Wednesday, April 25, 2007
----
Chapel Hill, North Carolina – Senator John Edwards released the following statement about Rudy Giuliani's comments that America will be at greater risk for another terrorist attack if Democrats win the White House in 2008.

"Rudy Giuliani's suggestion that there is some superior 'Republican' way to fight terrorism is both divisive and plain wrong. He knows better. That's not the kind of leadership he offered in the days immediately after 9/11, and it's not the kind of leadership any American should be offering now.

"As far as the facts are concerned, the current Republican administration led us into a war in Iraq that has made us less safe and undermined the fight against al Qaeda. If that's the 'Republican' way to fight terror, Giuliani should know that the American people are looking for a better plan. That's just one more reason why this election is so important; we need to elect a Democratic president who will end the disastrous diversion of the war in Iraq."

1. I would add one thing: "It is also important to remember that 9/11

happened under a Republican administration with republican control of the House and Senate and if Mayor Giuliani wants to play politics it goes both ways."

2. Agree...

It just seems our people are too damn PC sometimes. I know the minute Edwards (or anyone) comes out blazing the media will rip it up like when Kerry was caught calling them assholes.

It's OK for the Repukes to scream and yell, be angry, hateful, vitriolic, or have a firey 'scream' for their fans, but damned if a Democrat does it.
