-Bad news for America's Mayor of 9/11-
Yesterday was a bad day for America's favorite crossdressing Nosferatu look-alike. In addition to the news that Rudy Giuliani was using the city of New York as his private bank account -- to help pay for the affair that ended his marriage -- the Hero of 9/11 has been connected to one of the big fans of 9/11.
According to the report, "Giuliani Security & Safety LLC, a subsidiary of Giuliani Partners, the consulting firm that has made Rudy Giuliani rich, worked for either Qatar's interior ministry or the state-owned company it helps oversee, Qatar Petroleum. The interior ministry is run by a member of the Qatar royal family named Abdallah bin Khalid al Thani. Giuliani went on Larry King with al Thani in late 2001 and vouched for him. The problem is al Thani is alleged to have strong terrorist ties."
In fact, the ties are to terrorism are so strong that al Thani "welcomed Osama bin Laden on two visits to [his] farm, a charge repeated as recently as October 10, 2007, in a Congressional Research Service study" and helped "spirit [9/11 mastermind Khalid Sheikh Muhammad] out of Qatar in 1996, just as the FBI was closing in on him."
Asked if there was anyone connected to the Giuliani who wasn't involved in criminal activity, Giuliani's national campaign chair, noted British scholar Professor James Moriarty, declined comment. (MoJo Blog)
-Bad news for Mitt Romney-
A new study by Mental Health America has found that Utah is "the most depressed state in the US," confirming what just about everyone knows -- Mormons are downers. This is despite the fact that Utah's favorite snack is fun, jiggly Jell-O. Not Jell-O shots, just Jell-O -- probably with shredded carrots floating in it.
*sigh*
See, that's why Mitt's not more peppy. He's not from Utah, but he's a Mormon, so he's a downer. (Salt Lake Tribune)
