They haven’t, and it isn’t the time to get on the job training.”&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Oh, ok. Now I see that Giuliani has SOOO much more experience running a city, state, or government than any of his opposition. I mean, all that foreign policy experience being the mayor of NYC is just mind-boggling. I guess if you want to look at someone and say, &amp;quot;If you want to know what NOT to do, here's your guy.&amp;quot; He would be good in that capacity. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;He has way more experience than say, Joe Biden, who has been a Senator and a member of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee for THIRTY YEARS.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;The only thing Giuliani is qualified for is to be the FEMA director for the George W.

Not merely because Biden has proven he's an excellent debater, and has an unparalleled memory for facts, but the facts are also on Biden's side. Biden is the only candidate in either party who warned of our countries risk of a terrorist attack prior to 9/11. At least since 1999 Biden was given speeches on our misplaced security priorities and the countries need to protect against a terrorist attack, our countries most likely security risk. What did Rudy do prior to 9/11? His record won't stand up. Biden's got more knowledge, depth, and experience than Rudy on all issues (except divorce, marring your second cousin, announcing your divorce to your wife through the media, etc. Senator Biden has no experience on those matters)</description></item><item><title>Giuliani rips Dems on debate</title><link>http://firstread.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2007/10/31/441188.aspx#441593</link><pubDate>Wed, 31 Oct 2007 20:36:30 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">8a5d2dbc-a0e4-4c7a-979f-3188051f228e:441593</guid><dc:creator>IntheMiddle, TX</dc:creator><description>Marty, Memphis: Apparently you haven't done YOUR homework.

Well that's just Guiliani spreading lies. The truth: The plagiarism story is proof that the Swift Boat Veterans for Lies were nothing new. Biden always quoted Kinnock on the stump, but forgot to make the citation during an Iowa State Fair debate because he'd spent the previous few days working on the Bork hearings instead of properly preparing for the debate. Just once, he forgot to say &amp;quot;As Kinnock said,&amp;quot; and readily admits that he made a mistake in not gathering the reporters afterwards to say, &amp;quot;Hey guys, I messed up.&amp;quot; It only became a scandal when Dukakis aide John Sasso leaked a tape of the slip-up: reporter after reporter refused to print the rubbish, until Maureen Dowd took the bait and ran a hack job. The result? Dukakis *fired* Sasso, but most folks had already bought the MSM bull hook line and sinker. I also want to point out that this “scandal” dates back almost 20 years, to before Biden’s life-altering brain aneurysms and “long slog back to credibility.” Given the challenges we face in today’s world and the fact that people change with time, a non-scandal from a different era should not be an issue.</description></item><item><title>Giuliani rips Dems on debate</title><link>http://firstread.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2007/10/31/441188.aspx#442052</link><pubDate>Thu, 01 Nov 2007 00:59:46 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">8a5d2dbc-a0e4-4c7a-979f-3188051f228e:442052</guid><dc:creator>ken</dc:creator><description>Hey paul revere the north koreans are coming the north koreans are coming oh thats right they got the bomb under tough guy bush &amp;nbsp;way to stop them,meanwhile...................</description></item><item><title>Giuliani rips Dems on debate</title><link>http://firstread.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2007/10/31/441188.aspx#442624</link><pubDate>Thu, 01 Nov 2007 14:32:11 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">8a5d2dbc-a0e4-4c7a-979f-3188051f228e:442624</guid><dc:creator>Class Warrior, D.C.</dc:creator><description>Julie knows the fix is in, so he's already acting as if he and Clinton are the nominees, running a post-convention campaign against Hillary before the convention. &amp;nbsp;He's faced the facts the also-rans, Dem and GOP, won't face.</description></item><item><title>Giuliani rips Dems on debate</title><link>http://firstread.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2007/10/31/441188.aspx#442708</link><pubDate>Thu, 01 Nov 2007 14:55:56 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">8a5d2dbc-a0e4-4c7a-979f-3188051f228e:442708</guid><dc:creator>Virginia    Delmar,Delaware</dc:creator><description>Jerry:&lt;br&gt;Seems everyone but the Indian popukation in Delaware tried to make more of Joe's statement than was intended. &amp;nbsp;He in fact spoke the truth, Subways,Seven Elevens,Dunkin Donuts, Liquor Stores, Motels, Doctors, pharmacists,and on and on it goes for the Indian population in Delaware. &amp;nbsp;Truth is as he was pointing out Delaware has a very large population of sucessful Indian and Pakistani people who contribute to the state's growth.</description></item><item><title>Giuliani rips Dems on debate</title><link>http://firstread.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2007/10/31/441188.aspx#444304</link><pubDate>Fri, 02 Nov 2007 04:28:29 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">8a5d2dbc-a0e4-4c7a-979f-3188051f228e:444304</guid><dc:creator>Jen</dc:creator><description>Rudy's qualifications speak for themselves? &amp;nbsp;Really? &amp;nbsp; They should speak louder than, because I haven't heard anything remotely impressive. &amp;nbsp;I have heard him say things that my me question his sanity, so I guess that would make him an appropriate follow up to Bush.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Biden's comments were my favorite moment of the debate.
