Rudy Giuliani never fails to cast firefighters as his heroes, but the nation’s largest firefighters union all but declared war on him yesterday after he backed out of a forum for presidential hopefuls.
His withdrawal from the International Association of Fire Fighters forum exposed simmering tensions between the former mayor and city fire unions over his decision in November 2001 to limit FDNY personnel at Ground Zero.
Your cite from the artcile was flawed. The war wasn’t about Guiliani backing out, they never really wanted him there in the first place.
Guiliani only looked good next to bush’s disgusting display. Bush was struck dumb on a stool, then hid down a bunnyhole. Giuliani put his disaster headquarters at the disaster, and when it fell down, he had nowhere to go! So he wandered around, looking good.
