Presidential Frontrunner Fabrications: Ms.Clinton & Giuliani

"Sir Edmund became famous only after climbing Everest in 1953. Mrs. Clinton, as it happens, was born in 1947."

"For more than a decade, one piece of Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton's informal biography has been that she was named for Sir Edmund Hillary, the conqueror of Mount Everest. The story was even recounted in Bill Clinton's autobiography."

"But yesterday, Mrs. Clinton's campaign said she was not named for Sir Edmund after all."

Rudolph W. Giuliani

9/11:

Giuliani spent 29 hours total at Ground Zero yet said he spent as much time as recovery workers in the weeks after the Sept. 11 attacks:

Profited from 9/11:

"Rudy has used the horrible events of September 11 to create a persona that is an elaborate fabrication," says IAFF General President Harold Schaitberger. "He is nothing more than a shameless self-promoter."

Excellent YouTube video of firefighters against Giuliani:

From wiki:

"Additionally, there has been debate as to whether or not Giuliani profited from the tragedy. Before September 11th, Giuliani was estimated to be worth a little less than $2 million, but his net worth could now be as high as 30 times that amount.[citation needed] In the past year alone, he has collected $11.4 million from speaking fees.[81]"

Then the fake, planned, staged phone call from his wife in the middle of a NRA meeting. Ironically, the same type of phone call from his wife happened at prior meeting and got a lot of applause. The NRA folks were not amused and were skeptical. We all know in an important meeting you turn your cell phone off especially if you are the main speaker.

I have critiqued Ms. Clinton before in other threads so I will not add that information again.

On Democrat, One Republican; neither of which are fit for the presidency of the U.S.

Mr. John Edwards is the most decent and the most honest of all the candidates and I will vote for him although I am a Republican and always will be. The country needs Decency and Honor first. A forthright leader will foster others, here and abroad, to follow the ideals we Americans once had and can once again gain and redemonstrate to the world.
