[ClydeR]

Could it possibly get any weirder?

he is a no-go. Clinton was the last and only known philanderer we can have in the White House.

I am looking strongly at Herm Cain.

LOL No.

I think he'd make a fine secretary of homeland security.

I'm not aware of anything Giuliani has ever done to suggest that he would be qualified for that position.

So, you believe that Janet Napolitano is not qualified for the position either?

She is qualified now, but she was, at best, barely qualified when she was nominated. She was a governor and, as a US Attorney, was involved in terrorism investigations. Giuliani was a mayor and, as a US Attorney, primarily prosecuted white collar crime on Wall Street. I will grant you, though, that being the mayor of New York City is nearly as big a job as being the governor of Arizona.

In addition to his lack of qualification, Giuliani has several disqualifying characteristics. Chief among those is his need for publicity. If he got that job, it would be constant drama.

Seriously, so she's barely qualified because she "was involved in terrorism investigations.. but Giuliani isn't qualified because he didn't? What exactly were all the terrorism investigations that Napolitano was involved in? I know she investigated someone who helped McVeigh in the Oklahoma bombing.. what else was there?

He also oversaw the aftermath of 9-11.. a terrorist attack. If Napolitano is qualified, he's just as much if not more.
