Rudy Giuliani: Campaign
built 276 days ago
Rudy Giuliani supports "responsible" restrictions on abortion such as parental notification with a judicial bypass and a ban on partial birth abortion – except when the life of the mother is at stake. He holds that he and his fellow Republicans can "respectfully disagree" on this issue.[Citation Needed] However, In 1997 Giuliani said that then - President Bill Clinton made the right decision when he vetoed a ban on partial birth abortion. During his 2000 Senate campaign he said that he would "vote to preserve the option for women.” Giuliani has ... given six contributions to Planned Parenthood in the 1990s. The payments, totaling $900, were made in 1993, 1994, 1998 and 1999. Planned Parenthood is one of the top abortion advocates and abortion providers in the United States.
Ben Smith and David Paul Kuhn argue that Rudy Giuliani's poor showing in this campaign "seems ... to mark the beginning of the end of a period in Republican politics that began on Sept. 11, 2001." "There's a paradox for Rudy," said former Nebraska Sen. Bob Kerrey, who was a member of the 9/11 Commission.
Rudy Giuliani made an appearance at the Weekend Update desk. When Seth Meyers asked him how his campaign fell apart, Giuliani blamed the time he hosted Saturday Night Live in 1997 and appeared in a dress. (It was a Thanksgiving skit. He played the mother of Cheri Oteri's Mrs. Delvecchio character.

There have been a few odd and funny moments in the presidential campaign, but no one really brought the crazy until Rudy Giuliani dropped his foreign-policy manifesto in Foreign Affairs last month. The piece is a hodgepodge of apocalyptic scenarios and conservative victory narratives that everyone has come to expect from Giuliani. But what is scary about the manifesto is how clearly it indicates his ambition to bring his craziness to bear on the entire world.
