You Oughta Be in Pictures: The Rudy Filmography w/poll

Fri Jan 04, 2008 at 02:31:48 PM PDT

Rudy gets a lot of undeserved flack for mentioning 9/11 in nearly every breath:

He's sensitive to this criticism, and his latest ad is a masterpiece of subtlety, never mentioning 9/11 even once:

Granted, the ad -- which started running yesterday in New Hampshire and Florida, and nationally on Fox -- features multiple images of dark, scary Muslims stomping around, interspersed with images of Ground Zero

But here's the script for the ad, courtesy of Rudy's website:

"An enemy without borders. Hate without boundaries. A people perverted. A religion betrayed. A nuclear power in chaos. Madmen bent on creating it. Leaders assassinated. Democracy attacked. And Osama bin Laden still making threats. In a world where the next crisis is a moment away... America needs a leader who’s ready."

Not a single mention of 9/11!!! Now, aren't you embarrassed?

9/11 was a tragedy in so many ways, not the least of which is that it deprived us of the privilege and pleasure of seeing a different kind of Rudy, a warm, soft, fuzzy Rudy:  

Wow.  What a lucky woman, that Donna  Hanover. Don't you envy her? Don't you wish you could meet a guy like that on Facebook (without the combover)?

But now, with the weight of 9/11 hanging over him, Rudy can no longer be a lover.  

He's got to be a Fighter, and he's Fighting the Squeegee Men For Us !!  The only way Rudy can escape The Awesome Responsibility of Protecting Us is with a little humor:

Wow, that Rudy, what a Joker!  

The resemblance is striking, don't you think?
