Rudy 9/11's Bad Week

It's almost cliche now to make fun of Rudy Giuliani's 9/11 Tourette's Syndrome (even Sen. Biden has joined in), but when he denies mentioning it frequently, as he did in a recent NBC interview, you just have to laugh at the ridiculousness of this man's campaign. Here, in a video that should be co-opted by the DNC for regular use should Giuliani get his party's nomination, TPM lays the smackdown-



Speaking of Rudy, he suffered from bad news with the endorsement of Pat Robertson (wait, it's supposed to be a good thing?) and the indictment of his old BFF. Now, it's getting worse.

Publishing star Judith Regan of ReganBooks-- a subsidiary of NewsCorp-- has some far-ranging accusations. She alleges in a lawsuit that "a senior News Corp. executive asked her to lie to investigators about her relationship with Bernie Kerik, and another executive suggested that she withhold documents, all in order to protect Rudy Giuliani's political career" (Smoking Gun documents- here). Oh my. As they say... stay tuned.

[PS- To be fair, Giuliani has has unveiled his new TV ad. It doesn't mention 9/11. Kudos.]
