What is Digg?163 Comments
- crxvfr, on 10/11/2007, -10/+79OMG! We're all dead if we don't vote Rudy. His experience makes him the only qualified person to protect us from the boogeyman.
- AbortRetry, on 10/11/2007, -18/+65What I find amazing is that this is the same guy who wraps 9/11 around himself every time he wants to milk the sympathy vote, yet he's hated by the FDNY, he's hated by the 9/11 families, and he's hounded by them everywhere he goes.
I think what has to be done is the moment he mentions 9/11 people need to start chanting "INSIDE JOB" at every single event this guy goes to. Use his own hubris against him. No signs, nothing identifiable. Just wait for him to invoke the 'memories of 9/11' and when he does this, 15-30+ people in the crowd need to start chanting INSIDE JOB until he scurries away.
Why isn't anyone doing this to take the power away from him? - ByronT, on 10/11/2007, -3/+24Why are you people digging this man down... he's incredibly right. He's not promoting Giuliani, nor am I, but this is spot on.
- ArchieAndrews, on 10/11/2007, -1/+17You only said "MUST SEE" twice. I am only 60% sure that I must see this. Could you or someone as loud as you repeat it once more. Thanks!
- inactive, on 10/11/2007, -3/+18Hes not a hero, he did nothing to help during 9/11, he just happened to be mayor.
- EnglishVoodoo, on 10/11/2007, -25/+39Wow - the guy who posted above me called that interview "normal" and "thoughtful".
Did we watch the same interview? Is WhiteRaven insane? - nplace1, on 10/11/2007, -16/+29Ok...whatever you think of Giuliani and his chest-puffing on the 9/11 issue, can we at least keept the conversation grounded in reality?
9/11 was NOT an inside job. Let's get serious. - iam413x, on 10/11/2007, -4/+16Wow, it's almost like he's running his whole campaign on that one issue.
- robdowns, on 10/11/2007, -2/+12Yeah, obviously the people digging him down didn't even read his post. I DON'T like Giuliani, but let's have some common sense people.
- pestario, on 10/11/2007, -0/+10Giuliani: "If this is a one-issue election, it's 9/11"
cut to John Stewart:
"And if this is a two-issue election, I am going to lose..."
classic Stewart! - THX1979, on 10/11/2007, -1/+10News flash mchinsky; most of the 9/11 truth advocates (the most likely target of your accusation) are in fact conservatives.
- adb44, on 10/11/2007, -2/+10The firefighters and families of victims hate him for his treatment of them after the attacks--scoop and dump, abortive efforts to find bodies, and misinformation about health standards at the site. Not about it being an inside job. And honestly, that's good enough as an indictment. Way to undermine their credibility by demonstrating your lack thereof.
- marvy, on 10/11/2007, -3/+11Yeah, although I don't fully agree with WhiteRaven, and I am absolutely disgusted by FOX news (and, for that matter, Giuliani), I don't see why everyone is digging him down like this. He's not ranting or insisting on anything unsubstantiated. I do think he has some valid points here.
- rrwiz, on 10/11/2007, -6/+14@AbortRetry - awesome idea ! simple & effective....count me in.....
for that matter, could also do it for Clinton, Barak, or any time any politician invokes 911 for iraq war etc... - inactive, on 10/11/2007, -0/+7So who's Mr. Inside Job, oh that would be Bush.
- glyph01, on 10/11/2007, -0/+7He should be called "The man who invented 9-11".
We ALL hate him in New York City. - WhiteRaven, on 10/11/2007, -10/+17I actually refered to what was said in the interview. Why don't *you* do that? Tell me what you found so outragious. I honestly have no clue what your problem is. Are you just so biased that you don't even hear what's actually being said.
Provide for me a quote from the interview that desmonstrates the problem you see with ot. - VastSully, on 10/11/2007, -1/+7This is the same guy that has cut the health funding to the first responders from breathing the air they claimed was safe to breathe- Yeah....a REAL HERO!!!!
- HastyBoom, on 10/11/2007, -0/+6Rudy Giuliani scares the ***** out of me. Yes, I am an American.
- dabears1218, on 10/11/2007, -3/+9It's not like they said it in a good way. It's a fact that Rudy has been using 9/11 extensively throughout his campaign. I think it's fair to call him Mr. 9/11 seriously. Whether or not that's a good thing or a bad thing to be called is up to you.
- killiansman, on 10/11/2007, -2/+8I lived in New York for about 4 years before 9/11 and Giuliani was not well liked. He managed to clean up the city pretty well, but he did it by pretty much utillizing gestapo-like law enforcement techniques. Right after 9/11 people saw him as someone who would help New York get back on its feet, and the truth is that he didn't do anything at all. The only thing he did was try to silence those who criticized his negligence. And now he's trying to cash in on 9/11 and acting like he was a national hero.
Thats why people hate him so much. - VastSully, on 10/11/2007, -0/+6He cut benefits to the sick first responders. That seems to me like he didn't really care about anything but the bottom dollar when it came to that day-
Seriously- all he did was show up.....and it wasn't too hard for him- he was there. - WhiteRaven, on 10/11/2007, -7/+13AbrotRetry, so, your response is to perpetuate a myth? Way do go. And you get diggs... this is so depressing.
- thcobbs, on 10/11/2007, -3/+9This is digg... and Giuliani is on the hit list along with FOX News. Didn't you see the memo?
Well, anyway... Since there's a story where they can possibly twist facts and embarrass both, they are going to be ALL over it like white on rice. - drmobutu, on 10/11/2007, -0/+6That's right. If you liked the first 9/11, vote for Giuliani.
- painted82, on 10/11/2007, -2/+7You'd have to be a kook not to be bashing Bush. Seriously, he makes it so easy for you. What was his latest approval rating... 20%? As far as digg leaning left, that's not entirely true as many diggers support Ron Paul. Maybe your average digger is smarter than your average American?
- CornStarch, on 10/11/2007, -0/+5Why is this must see video not in the video section?
- truspark, on 10/11/2007, -0/+5That's *****, he had nothing to do with the first responders - they were on their own - that's why so many of them perished. Ask Giuliani why he never did anything about fixing the radio communication that plagued the first responders even in the '93 attack.
- worldinmyeyes, on 10/11/2007, -0/+5Look, I used to think like you before I woke up 2 years ago. It wasn't easy - I poured over information, and DIDN'T want to come to the conclusion I came to - that 9/11 was made to happen by our government. I suggest if you are sincere, to continue to look into these claims without dismissing them. I honestly doubt you have. There are eyewitness reports, audio, and video evidence of explosions in the building, let alone the unexplainable building 7. Open your mind, your eyes, and you can see how the criminals that benefited most from the crime is our own government.
P.S. - Condemnation without investigation is the highest form of ignorance. - mightyzug, on 10/11/2007, -5/+10too bad he was not associated with the 9/11 attack in any way shape or form... unless you count hiding out miles away from ground zero like most of the city :P
- worldinmyeyes, on 10/11/2007, -1/+6Giuliani is a career criminal - he'd fit in well in Washington.
- killiansman, on 10/11/2007, -2/+6Whether you lean to the left or to the right, you need to be level-minded and be able to call ***** when you see it. I'm personally a fairly liberal person, but I can tell you that any person who calls himself a conservative, and supports Bush, is not a real conservative because Bush is not real conservative. Same with Giuliani. You don't need to be a liberal to see that what he is doing is using a tragedy to his advantage. I think any Republican should be ashamed to have both of those guys waving the Republican party flag.
- THX1979, on 10/11/2007, -0/+4No, it doesn't constitute proof. Is your mind so weak that an admission that someone close to Giuliani knew with certainty that the towers were coming down means nothing to you? To me, that defines weak-mindedness, intellectual-laziness, and a host of other defamatory judgments I could pass upon you.
- inactive, on 10/11/2007, -2/+6see the movie "Giuliani Time". He's a piece of ***** front to back, top to bottom, really a cold, craven monster. he was an utter ***** after 911 too, you just got the pretty version of things in the media.
- zdux0012, on 10/11/2007, -11/+15This video is going to be playing in various formats and media long after this 9/11 thing comes out.
BTW Rudy,
It's coming. - tehpwnrate, on 10/11/2007, -3/+7"They weren't particularly very complimentary about it."
Exactly. The guy says that reporters mention how quick he is to bring up 9/11. This isn't about him in any positive way; it's just a discussion about Giuliani's campaign policies. Watch the video and read WhiteRaven's post before you digg him down.
Meanwhile, I'm burying this because of the inaccurate description. Big surprise that this comes from the Jones Report. Quick, click the link on the right and buy some Infowars DVDs! - THX1979, on 10/11/2007, -6/+10"I--I went down to the scene and we set up headquarters at 75 Barkley Street, which was right there with the police commissioner, the fire commissioner, the head of emergency management, and we were operating out of there when we were told that the World Trade Center was going to collapse. And it did collapse before we could actually get out of the building, so we were trapped in the building for 10, 15 minutes, and finally found an exit and got out, walked north, and took a lot of people with us." - Rudy Giuliani
“But right before the south tower collapsed, I noticed a lot of people just left the lobby, and I heard we had a crew of all different people, high-level people in government, everybody was gone, almost like they had information that we didn't have.” - Joseph Pfeifer, Battalion Chief (F.D.N.Y.)
"WHEN WE WERE TOLD THAT THE WORLD TRADE CENTER WAS GOING TO COLLAPSE..." - TheLastProphet, on 10/11/2007, -0/+4The more he gets linked with 911 the harder the fall.
Ron Paul already bitch slapped him on national TV. Ron followed with "he absolutely showed his ignorance." Mr. 911 doesn't know jack about foreign policy or national security.
Why'd you cover-up the evidence dick head?
We haven't forgot that's a felony and you're guilty.
We haven't forgot and paybacks are hell. - THX1979, on 10/11/2007, -0/+4I don't blame you. Fighting the truth is a dirty, dirty job.
- conceptkid, on 10/11/2007, -3/+7All the people that died on 9/11 deserve to be called mr. or mrs. 9/11, not some idiot who was coincidentally "leaving" the building that day.
- Shiftyeyedgoat, on 10/11/2007, -1/+5because he's rational.
On Digg anyone who disagrees with the mantra of "FOX NEWS LIES" or "Republicans aren't ALWAYS evil" are instantaneously buried. - TheTorontonian, on 10/11/2007, -0/+4That was funny. The fact of the matter is that he was not a national hero. He was just the mayor of New York when 911 happened. That is like saying that if a guy cuts his own leg after a fallen rock traps him to be a hero. They are not, they were just doing what was needed under difficult circumstances. But that does not make a hero.
And the fact remains that Giuliani does throw the 911 pitch everywhere he goes. I mean, he is technically running his entire campaign on that. - foooey, on 10/11/2007, -0/+4Digg is biased, because it's used by a lot of smart people. People who are beyond fed up with the utter idiocy required to be complacent about the outrages committed by our current government. Believe me, if there were Democrats responsible for outright media manipulation, illegal and unconstitutional policies, and blatant cronyism on the scale we're seeing right now, they'd be just as vilified as the current gang.
- thcobbs, on 10/11/2007, -0/+4No, he won't. He won't be able to pull in enough the far-right because of his stance on abortion. He's even a risky VP choice because of that liability.
- thatsmyaibo, on 10/11/2007, -5/+8I know exactly what you mean. I have started to lose faith on digg since every front page political story started coming from rawstory. Everybody is just so one sided and instead of coming up with valid talking points they just bury people so that anyone who thinks against the digg mentality disappears and the one sided thoughts remain. I don't take it too seriously anymore since it is such a small percent of the voting population. Digg went from a democracy to an extremely biased site very quickly.
- mchinsky, on 10/11/2007, -7/+10I don't get it... Digg used to be pretty fairly split, maybe 60% left, 40% right. Now it seems to have been taken over by moveon.org? I can almost never find comments from anything but bush bashing left wing kooks. I understand that statistically tech people lean left, but this has gotten rediculous. Has there been some new "digg" like site where the right has gone? Considering elections seem almost 50/50 split for the last 25 years, it just makes no sense.
- raskali, on 10/11/2007, -0/+3Mr. 911 seems quite apt...he's a disaster waiting to happen.
- THX1979, on 10/11/2007, -1/+4"Don't believe everything you here" (sic) Trust me brother, I don't. But when a public official makes a statement like that, I take notice and it's difficult to forget. Giuliani said he was told the World Trade Center was coming down. That's an issue for me. I'm not some nut that's screaming about Bush planting bombs in the towers; I'm a rational scholar that has not heard any further explanation of this statement from Giuliani or his handlers. Maybe, for some unjustifable reason, you find a 9/11 FDNY fire chief lacking in credibility. Fine. Have you heard any other fire chiefs repudiate his comment?
- drmobutu, on 10/11/2007, -0/+3No, Cheney. Bush really was in the dark.
- eschompthis, on 10/11/2007, -3/+6when was he a hero? he was the mayor of New York when 911 happened, he calls himself a hero because of that
