I use to have respect for Rudy Giuliani because of Sept. 11, but now The RNC and Mccain has come out with a robo call that is a total lie and borderline racist.

Here is the text:
Hi, this is Rudy Giuliani and I'm calling for John McCain and the Republican National Committee, because you need to know that Barack Obama opposes mandatory prison sentences for sex offenders, drug dealers, and murderers. It's true, I read Obama's words myself. And recently, Congressional liberals introduced a bill to eliminate mandatory prison sentences for violent criminals -- trying to give liberal judges the power to decide whether criminals are sent to jail or set free. With priorities like these, we just can't trust the inexperience and judgment of Barack Obama and his liberal allies. This call was paid for by the Republican National Committee and McCain-Palin 2008
I have never supported the idea of mandatory prison sentences for ANY crime. That's why we have judges and juries. Let's let the courts do what they were designed for and keep the legislature out of the penalty phase of the process.Mandatory sentencing has not worked and has been (rightfully) seen as targeting select groups of the American population. It is not the job of the legislature or executive branch but one of the justice department but since the lines are so blurred at this point in history. Mccain and the Republicans are only managing to dig their own grave. I, for one, hope they continue with their efforts to paint Obama as anti-American. They are ensuring Obama's victory on November 4th, and the Democrats securing more seats in the house and senate.
