Rudy Guiliani has garnered more press coverage with his irrational rants than are justified as a simple google search proves.
Rudy is merely another dysfunctional Republican in sore need of psychiatric care and addressed soley because of Matt Taibbi's brilliant observation below.
Let's HANG IT UP if Republicans can't produce any SANE CANDIDATES.
Do they have any?

Says it all:
Robert Reich
Earlier this week, at a fundraiser for Scott Walker, Rudy Giuliani, the former Republican mayor of New York and failed presidential candidate, said “President Obama does not love America” and “wasn’t brought up the way you were brought up and I was brought up through love of this country." Yesterday Giuliani said his criticism of the President shouldn’t be considered racist because the President was raised by “a white mother.” When asked about Giuliani’s remarks, Walker said only “the mayor can speak for himself.” Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal weighed in with a statement that he “refuses to condemn Mayor Giuliani.”
I’m less concerned about venal remarks made by a foolish Republican politician than I am about the unwillingness of any prominent Republican to condemn them. Political leadership requires setting and enforcing a minimum standard of decency. Is there no principled adult left in the Republican Party?
Rudy's claim to fame was his fanciful version of 9/11, obscuring that he moved his mistress into Gracie Mansion forcing his wife to publicly announce their divorce and much else.
"Little man in search of a balcony.'"
