Giuliani party seeks $9.11 per person

WASHINGTON - A supporter of Rudy Giuliani's is throwing a party that aims to raise $9.11 per person for the Republican's presidential campaign.

Abraham Sofaer is having a fundraiser at his Palo Alto, Calif., home on Wednesday, when Giuliani backers across the country are participating in the campaign's national house party night.

But Sofaer said he had nothing to do with the "$9.11 for Rudy" theme.

<SNIP>

Giuliani's campaign had no immediate comment.

According to the invitation, "$9.11 for Rudy" is an "independent, non-denominational grass-roots campaign to raise $10,000 in small increments to show how many individual, everyday Americans support `America's Mayor.'"

[NYC]

1. Tacky.

Probably Giuliani's idea.

[rusty quoin]

2. He should do the phone call from his wife thing again.

[Buzz Clik]

3. Giuliani has "9/11" tattooed on his ass.

His cat's name is 9/11.

He's looking for a home with the street number 911.

His AOL screen name is Rudy_911

His favorite movie is Fahrenheit 9/11 (no one accused him of being bright and informed)

His favorite bar is the Eel Even Inn (think about it...)

[yourout]

4. He is probably trying to trademark...911.

Talk about a one trick pony.

He has absolutly nothing of substance to offer.

[fenriswolf]

18. prob trying to get 911 for his phone as well

[Buzz Clik]

19. They should let him have it.

He'll get the impression that he's really needed...

[baby_mouse]

5. Classy!

Can't you just picture a fancy dress fund-raising dinner with Rudy as the towers mid-collapse...?

[gratuitous]

6. How about $40.98 per person?

Of course, that's just today's casualty number; they'd have to ask for more each day, and I don't think Giuliani's supporters are all that bright.

[NI4NI]

9. What next? $3000 a plate dinners

an amount equal to the number of WTC dead, or how about matching just the number NY firefighters who perished because the rotten son of a bitch refused them funding for better emergency radios.

I'm so god damn angry at this I want to break something!!!!!!

[JI7]

7. i have been wondering how low he will go in exploiting 9/11 for his own

purposes.

[NI4NI]

8. I hope KO reports this!

This is WRONG! Fundraising off the dead deserves a "special comment" from KO, IMO.

[Progressive Friend]

10. Heh, it makes sense: 9-11 was the best thing that has ever happened to him politically

[Cha]

11. Isn't that like having a staffer call when

he's giving a speech and pretending it's judy so he can say he loves her in front of the camera? And in parenthesis he's saying.. he's faithful now and he's not gonna screw over judy and bring someone else to live in their house when he's still married to her.

[Pastiche423]

20. He can't screw over Judi!

She'd kill him.

[Ninja Jordan]

12. This would RUIN a democratic candidate.

But for Republicans it's OK.

[provis99]

13. yeesh, what a ghoulish creep

Do the donors get silver "recovered from Ground Zero", like in those abominable television ads? Or a vial of blood from one of the victims?

[Skittles]

14. he truly is disgusting

:puke:

[Perry Logan]

15. The Republicans didn't know terrorism existed--till they found out they could get votes for it.

Bill Clinton sent legislation to Congress to tighten airport security. The legislation was defeated by the Republicans because of opposition from the airlines.

Clinton sent legislation to Congress to allow for better tracking of terrorist funding. It was defeated by Republicans in the Senate because of opposition from banking interests.

Clinton sent legislation to Congress to add tagents to explosives, to allow for better tracking of explosives used by terrorists. It was defeated by the Republicans because of opposition from the NRA.

[rucky]

16. Ghouly.

Capitalizing off of death.

[saltpoint]

17. Also featured this event will be the current Mrs. Giuliani torturing dogs.

Separate fee, of course.
