NYC Mayor Giuliani linked to NAMBLA

[pnwmom]

When they accuse Pelosi of supporting NAMBLA by (supposedly) walking in the same gay pride parade, then we should throw this in their faces:

Unfortunately, it's a restricted article from the NYT archives. But here's the juicy part.

Has the Mayor Made a Difference?

January 19, 1997

"MARY A. CUMMINS lives in Middle Village, Queens, and was a member of the District 24 school board. She was a leader in the 1992 fight against Joseph A. Fernandez, then the Schools Chancellor, over a proposed curriculum that included teaching respect for gay people. She resigned from the board in 1995."

“I EXPLAINED why I didn't vote for Mayor Giuliani in the last election. I look at the gay pride parade coming up the avenue and I see the gay activists and they are followed by a group from Nambla, the pedophiles. And in back of the pedophiles come, smiling brightly and waving their hands, the two aspirants to be my Mayor, Mr. Dinkins and Mr. Giuliani. I couldn't under those circumstances vote for anyone that would march in a parade with pedophiles.

“I, however, have to be fair-minded, and that was the only thing I had against the man at the time. And it is the only thing I have against him now. But I must say this: I think he should be congratulated on the job he's doing and the effort he's putting into it to change New York and do what he can, and I will be voting for Mr. Giuliani when his term is up, when he runs again. I really have to when I see what he's up against as far as the Democrats who have announced.

“I can't let just one item that I disagree with him on blind me to the good that he has done. “

1. I won't vote for Rudy for dog catcher, but

just how is he "linked" to NAMBLA by being in a parade?

Bit of a stretch ?

There are lots of good reasons not to vote for him besides him being in the strange part of a parade nine years ago?

2. It's called guilt by association

You and I are victims of it by being slighted as American for what our dictator does.

Spinmeisters are very good at playing with logical fallacies. Karl Rove and Ken Mehlman are quite adept. Rush Limbaugh is no slouch in that department, either.

That's why such people are called occupational liars.

3. As I said, the Rethugs are ALREADY accusing Pelosi of supporting Nambla

by walking in a gay pride parade. This is a response to those jerks.

The "link" with Giuliani is exactly the same that they're making with Pelosi.

Political pundit Pat Buchanan:

has marched in gay pride parades with the North American Man/Boy Love Association, NAMBLA. Which, who are pedophiles who are trying to get the laws repealed for sex between men and boys. If she’s been marching with pedophiles, is she credible standing up there saying I’m shocked, shocked that some Republican is after 17 year old pages?

SNIP

Political pundit David Limbaugh:

Does Mrs. Pelosi truly support the National American Man/Boy Love Association (NAMBLA) or just proudly march in parades with them and receive 90 percent approval from their enablers in the American Civil Liberties Union? Inquiring minds surely want to know.
