The Stuff I Didn't Get To -- 12/21/07

Simon Bar Sinister from 'Underdog'
GOP Presidential candidate Rudy Giuliani


-Rudy's got a secret-
Actually, presidential hopeful Rudy Giuliani has about 2,000 boxes of secrets -- according to the report, "the written, photographic and electronic record of his eight years in office."

When Rudy left office, he took just about any evidence that he'd ever been the Mayor of NYC with him, in what AP is calling "an unprecedented agreement that didn't become public until after he left office."

"When Giuliani stepped down, he needed a warehouse."

Not only did he take his personal records, but those of "Giuliani's deputy mayors, his chief of staff, his travel office and [mayoral residence] Gracie Mansion." I'll bet the name "Bernard Kerik" comes up a lot.

Rudy's been telling an entirely different story on the campaign trail. "My government in New York City was so transparent that they knew every single thing I did almost every time I did it," he said in the last debate. "I can't think of a public figure that's had a more transparent life than I've had."

Apparently, Dick freakin' Cheney's had a more transparent life than Rudy Giuliani. Guiliani's national campaign chair, noted intelligence expert Secret Squirrel, could not be reached for comment. (AP)

-Headline of the day-
"TIME Fires Major Neocon Douches." TIME magazine let go Charles Krauthammer and founding neocon William Kristol -- presumably for never being right about anything. Reports Wonkette, "So who's going to defend America from Democrats, liberals and homosexuals now? Some other asshole!"

Said asshole being National Review editor Ramesh Ponnuru. Lose two assholes and get one to replace them?

I'll take it. (Wonkette)

-[FARK] headline of the day-
"Keeping a Bengal tiger in your backyard? Here's a tip: Don't take it for a little drive around the neighborhood. People will get suspicious." I don't think I've ever read a FARK headline that summed up the story so well. Actual story at KWGN-TV, Denver. (FARK)
