1 Rudy Giuliani Hates Medical Marijuana, But He Loves OxyContin


"I believe the effort to try and make marijuana available for medical
uses is really a way to legalize it. There's no reason for it," the former New York mayor said during a town hall-style meeting at New Hampshire Technical Institute.

He also said there are better alternatives.

"You
can accomplish everything you want to accomplish with things other than
marijuana, probably better. There are pain medications much superior to
marijuana," he said. <1>

Rudolph
Giuliani and his consulting company, Giuliani Partners, have served as
key advisors for the last five years to the pharmaceutical company that
pled guilty to charges it misled doctors and patients about the
addiction risks of the powerful narcotic painkiller OxyContin. <2>

2 Giuliani has been married three times

Regarding his personal life, some claim that he knew his first wife was

his second cousin all along, and simply used that as an excuse for

annulling the marriage <3>

Giuliani
subsequently married Judith Nathan on May 24, 2003, and thus gained a
stepdaughter, Whitney. It was also Nathan's third marriage after two
prior divorces. <4>

3 Rudy Giuliani's daughter comes out for Obama


Caroline (Giuliani daughter) apparently linked her personal Facebook
page to the campaign of Democratic presidential candidate, Senator
Barack Obama. <5>

The
official Giuliani campaign website biography mentions Nathan (Giuliani
wife) but does not mention his children or his former marriages. <6>

Talk about a great dad but than again Rudy in Drags? a crossdressing tranvestite?

4 "America's Mayor" ?

In
the wake of the September 11 2001 attacks, Giuliani was hailed by many
for his leadership during the crisis. When polled just six weeks after
the attack Giuliani received a 79% approval rating among New York City
voters, a dramatic increase over the 36% rating he had received a year
earlier — 7 years into his administration. <7>

The
term "America's Mayor", now in common usage among Giuliani supporters,
seems to have been coined by Oprah Winfrey at a 9/11 memorial service
held at Yankee Stadium on September 23, 2001. <8>

The
IAFF's bipartisan presidential forum in Washington, D.C., included ten
other major Democratic and Republican candidates seeking their support
for their Presidential aspirations. The relations between Giuliani and
the firefighters' union are strained due to their contention that he
abandoned efforts to recover remains and effects of firefighters and
other victims in the rubble of the World Trade Center, despite his
public posturing of support. <9>

Debris
that may have contained bits of bone from victims of the World Trade
Center attacks was used to fill potholes and pave city roads, according
to court papers.

The
charge was made in an affidavit filed in Manhattan federal court in an
ongoing case filed in 2005 by family members of those killed in the
attacks against the city. They say the city did not do enough to search
for remains, denying victims a proper burial. <10>

5 Firefighters union assails Giuliani

The
International Association of Fire Fighters, in a draft letter,
excoriated Giuliani for his November 2001 decision to cut back the
number of firefighters searching the rubble of Ground Zero for the
remains of some 300 fallen comrades.

The 280,000-member union
accused him of expediting the clean-up process with a "scoop-and-dump"
operation after the recovery of millions of dollars in gold, silver and
other assets from the Bank of Nova Scotia that had been buried.

Watch video release from IAFF

Rather than take responsibility, Giuliani tried to blame the victims, telling the 9/11 Commission that fire fighters heard their evacuation orders but disobeyed them.

Giuliani (Testifying at the 9/11 Commission):
"Their willingness, the way I describe it, to stand their ground."

Quite a stretch to simply say you are not for him. You really had to crane your neck to understand what you were getting at. You might as well have added that Giuliani  was seen eating a Big Mac at McDonald's after saying earlier in the day he was against greasy food. Oh...my....gosh.....stop the presses!

I bet that Giuliani supports the building project of a drug rehab in california if that brings more votes but I have one thing to say about his marijuana opposition: there may be medical pain killers better than marijuana, but marijuana is a 100% natural product which has possitive effect on the human body, a thing that I can't say about medical drugs that are sintetized in labs.

I'll be honest.  I don't mind Giuliani.  He isn's an incredibly bad guy.  He honestly did a lot for New York in the mid-90's and helped out a lot after the attack on New York.  I don't agree with what he says, and half the time what he stands for.  As far as his assumed view on drug rehab centers, he probably doesn't care about more votes in California.  Giuliani's done with.  And as far as marijuana being 100% natural . . . well that depends on who you are getting it from.  Often times it is now being laced with various other drugs to make your high that much more expensive.

I agree that he isn't a bad guy. But that doesn't necessarily make for agreeable politics. You are right about his assumed view on drug rehab centers- he has done practically nothing to revive the crippled state of <a href="http://www.treatment4addiction.com/treatment-centers/rehabilitation-centers/new-york">New York rehab centers</a>. What is to be expected of a person so clueless about addiction and narcotics that they think Marijuana is more harmful than Oxycontin?
