Vanity Fair has a very damning article on Judi Guiliani!
http://www.vanityfair.com/politics/features/2007/09/giuliani200709?printable=true¤tPage=all

It's a long article that covers most of her life, and what she REALLY is like! I would say it doesn't matter much about a candidate's wife, but look at the flack Kerry took over Theresa! If the info in this article is exploited during the campaign, Rudy is GONE!

The one telling line is when it's explained that Judi insisted on wearing a tiara when she marriet Rudy because it made her feel like a princess, but what she REALLY wants is to be QUEEN!

1. Here's one highlight...
<Inside the tent were Secretary of State Colin Powell, New York governor George Pataki, Richard Grasso, who was then head of the New York Stock Exchange, and New York mayor Michael Bloomberg. Senator Hillary Clinton stood in the aisle—until she was unceremoniously pushed by a phalanx of four burly cops entering the tent, these guarding Judith Nathan, Giuliani's girlfriend. No apologies were offered, one observer noted.

"The nerve of that woman!" Hillary exploded, recalling that her own daughter's Secret Service detail evaporated soon after Bill Clinton left office. Why should an ex-mayor's girlfriend get such royal treatment? "Who does she think she is?" Hillary said to an observer, who later recounted the story.>

2. I wonder why the taxpayers of NYC had to pay for protection for Hizzoner's GF/Mistress?

3. Gads. What a piece of work. Isn't she a little long in the tooth for a tiara?
This should be fun.

4. Their house must be a real riot! Rudy has the reputation of having
a very bad temper, and it sure sounds like little old Judi does too!

5. The dogs…
She's been laying low ever since this came out.

(snip)

"Every salesperson at U.S. Surgical was trained for six weeks with dogs at Lincoln Hospital in the Bronx, and that was really brutal," explains a former employee. "They spent days and days with dogs, taking out the spleen or stomach or the lobe of a lung. Then if the dog started moaning or fidgeted, whoever was closest would push more sedative into him from the syringe. It was horrible. Then the dog would be killed with potassium chloride."

After training, the salespeople marketed the staplers to doctors, and, once again, in many cases large dogs were used, as they had organs comparable in size to those possessed by humans. "After the stapling, sometimes they'd put a big clamp above and below the staple lines of the dog, and fill with lots of fluid," the ex-employee says. "It would fill up like a balloon, and the salesperson would say to the doctor, 'See—it doesn't leak!' That's how they marketed and sold the product." (Some years ago, former C.E.O. Leon Hirsch defended the company's practice of using dogs, claiming that there was no proper substitute.)

WABC radio host Ron Kuby, a lawyer and severe Giuliani critic, marvels at the campaign's sublime lack of preparation for the storm of fury that greeted the dog issue, in April. "Think of all the hacks and politicos who sit down and they say to Judi, 'O.K., we've gone through your background, husbands, etc.,'" he muses. "'Is there any other thing in your background, some crazy little thing, that might catch someone's attention?' It's at that point you should raise your hand and say, 'Oh, you mean when I was killing puppies?'"

6. Yea, when I read that all I could think of is "I wonder if she's close
friends with Bill Frist? Her with the dogs & him with the cats, sure gives them a common interest!

7. At the end of the article
Edited on Mon Jul-30-07 01:24 PM by kskiska
it appears that this marriage is already waning and Judi is ever vigilant and wary of other women who catch his eye. His staff knows the signs.

(snip)

"They're all there to stay," says Papir. "Until they're gone. And the staff usually knows before they do. And we hear the footsteps."

8. I don't expect to see anything like that until AFTER the campaign.
IF Rudy does win the primary, we won't see anything until AFTER the election. If he DOESN'T win the primary, it could happen ANYTIME!

9. Outrageous ....One Lie After Another
Edited on Mon Jul-30-07 02:34 PM by otohara

snip>

For years she appeared, in the public record, to have had only one failed marriage, but as it turned out she'd had two. It seemed that she had gone to Pennsylvania State nursing school, as The New York Times once reported, but she had not. She completed two years of nursing school, but left hospital work before a year was up. Nonetheless, Giuliani has publicly referred to her "expertise" in "biological and chemical" disasters, and believes she would be a help in the event of an anthrax attack.

Thanks for posting this BTW :woohoo:

10. Sounds worse than the things they say Mike Vick was doing.
Rudy would be a worse calamity than Bush.
