9-11 is Reason Rudy took wife's phone call at NRA speech

[RamboLiberal]

For Rudy Giuliani, it's always about 9/11 - even when it comes to his wife's ill-timed phone calls.

Elaborating for the first time on why he interrupted a speech to the National Rifle Association this month to take a cell-phone call from his wife, Judith, Giuliani explained that, since 9/11, he and the missus always chat before flying.

"Quite honestly, since Sept. 11, most of the time when we get on a plane, we talk to each other and just reaffirm the fact that we love each other," the Republican presidential hopeful told the Christian Broadcasting Network.

"Sometimes if I'm in the middle of a very, very sensitive meeting, I don't take the call right then. I wait. But I thought it would be kind of nice if I took it at that point."

Not everyone agreed. A Fox News poll out this week showed that 81% of Americans - and 84% of Republicans - believe candidates should never take calls during speeches.

4. I hear ya!

I keep reading quotes from Mayor Nine-Eleveny and thinking, "This is from the Onion, right?"

WRONG! He's actually SPEWING this garbage - "And speaking of garbage, that reminds me of the brave first responders on 9-11 who had so much garbage to clean up after our city was brutally attacked ..."
