Friday's Worst Person in the World segment was preceded by a correction and apology to Rudy Giuliani for inaccurately reporting a quote of his from an AP story. Keith Olbermann then promptly awarded Giuliani the Bronze for the corrected quote as it was equally offensive. In fact, Rudy was the recipient of the Silver and Gold awards for his own inaccuracies, in statements made about the last Democratic presidential debate and prostate cancer survival rates in the U.S. versus Great Britain -- the statistics he used, as it turns out, happen to be seven years old and completely bogus.
Ok, Rudy, Keith made his correction and apology...now it's your turn.
yay
Once the 9/11 fireman start talking, Rudy's presidential aspirations will be over. Done.
He won't make it to nomination.
This guy is a ghoul. Creepy beyond belief.
Pakistan is on the verge of civil war.
Man, the fabled Worst Person Triple Crown. That's quite an accomplishment.
Che's Lounge @ 4:
Well played!
Ghouliani, the Republican'ts last hope.
"Ok, Rudy, Keith made his correction and apology…now it’s your turn."
There is zero chance of that happening. I would be willing to bet that his inaccuracies will be repeated several more times, without correction.
Just what we need for president. A lying, cross dressing war monger. Even Bush can't top that. Man they must really WANT me to vote for Hillary. It's still no fucking way, even though she looks nearly as good in a dress. But she lies the same, and takes the same money from the same people while giving us the same BS. Some two party system! You call this a choice?
Vote the Kuch! See you in Denver next summer.
Gotta love Keith.
We must bomb Iran now to demonstrate to Pakistan how regime change is DONE!
Keith lures the wingnuts in...then lays it on their dense skulls good and hard.
RUDY CLAIMS U.S. HAS HIGHER ‘PROSTRATE’ RATE THAN GREAT BRITAIN
If you like Bush, You'll love Rudy.
A conservative politician apologising - unheard of, UNHEARD OF I say!
In unrelated news, flying pigs have invaded and caputured New York City's major air and sea ports and are demanding apologies and compensation from the Republican Party for insulting and demeaning them.
I worked in NYC for Rudy's 8 year stint as mayor. Every cop and fireman I knew hated him. He cleaned up NY is bullshit. He cleaned up 42nd street. Period. The rest of the city was the same. I hope he does get the gop nomination. Anybody should be able to beat him. Only half his baggage is known about. He really is a slimeball.
Has anyone else ever scored a hat trick?
theWalrus @ 2:
Oh come now, it's the REPUBLICAN party remember.
ah the crazy Mr. noun verb 9/11
If I was Republican I would dread Rudy getting the GOP nomination,
as a Democrat supporter, I say hes the perfect GOP candidate, he will rip them apart in 08.
so rah rah Rudy go for it.
In Rudy's topsy-turvy, unrelated-to-reality world, a #1 maxim is 'Bulls*it Always Rises to the Top', and he just proved it.
As a Democrat I dread getting Hillary Clinton, and I think Rudy is a blend of Hillary and Bush in a very disastrous transporter accident on the USS Enterprise.
Che's Lounge @ 6:
Musharraf declaring martial law is a dress rehearsal for Bush and Company.
nick @ 15:
Ain't that the truth.
Damn, he's ugly!! he looks like a death's head on a mopstick.
I cant imagine wanting money and publicity so badly that I would let that creepy ghoul touch me! I guess judypoody is made of stronger stuff than I...
Rudy Giuliani is so inconsistent - God-forbid he should be our next president!
With apologies to Lionel Richie:
"He's once, twice, three times an asshole!"
If you like Bush, You’ll love Rudy.
Giuliani = Mussolini II, Electric Boogaloo.
Plunger handles for all political dissents!
If I was Republican I would dread Rudy getting the GOP nomination,
as a Democrat supporter, I say hes the perfect GOP candidate, he will rip them apart in 08.
so rah rah Rudy go for it.
Especially if Mr. Paul decides to mount a third party challenge.
Anyone thinking Bill O' will be jealous now that he isn't unique with these awards on the three-fer?
Peter G @ 18:
yes. billo turned the trick two years ago i believe, right around his initial war on christmas.
It's hard to imagine a presidency worse than Mr. Bush,
but Rudy would certainly make it a race (to the bottom).
Rudy: Americas' suicide choice.
...
Keith is a bigger man than Rudy
surprised?
Rudy is ravaged by Capone level Syphilis
I'm going to guess that the only other time Rudy got three votes for Worst Person in the World is when each of his wives got to cast a vote...
What a smug, pandering douche. I hope people remember this kind of crap when Rudy tries courting moderates, once he's done giving reach arounds to the neo-cons...
Now, that was ingenious. Probably Keith's best Worst Person ever!
Rudy is just slimey. It's okay to oppose a candidacy, but to suggest that Dems. would invite Bin Laden to dinner at the White House is just slime. He can in this climate still get the uninformed folks to vote for him and that's ashame. They should look at the issues themselves and then make a decision. If Rudy wasn't wealthy, he wouldn't qualify for health insurance because of his prior prostate cancer.
My2Cents at 17 sez, "I hope he does get the gop nomination. Anybody should be able to beat him. Only half his baggage is known about. He really is a slimeball."
Lots of people said the same thing about George W about eight years ago--and, later, four--and look where that got us.
It's the whole "baggage" thing that's the problem. You might say that one man's baggage is another man's badge of honor--as long as the spin is done right and enough people can be suckered into buying into it. Recall the Rule of Rove: You only need 51 percent (and that only on a single day). In a country where almost a third of the electorate still think a confirmed loser like Bush is doing a good job, that's not a long shot by any means.
Rudy Giuliani,
GET OFF MY LAWN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Rudy is a war hero....
Peter G @ 18:
BillO I think
Someone should ask Old Bush if he remembers this wonderful treatment of the Iraqi back in his good old days.

“Where the hell are all the bodies?” Daniel said.
“What bodies?” the officer replied.
Daniel and the rest of the world would not find out until months later why the dead had vanished. Thousands of Iraqi soldiers, some of them alive and firing their weapons from World War I-style trenches, were buried by plows mounted on Abrams main battle tanks. The Abrams flanked the trench lines so that tons of sand from the plow spoil funneled into the trenches. Just behind the tanks, actually straddling the trench line, came M2 Bradleys pumping 7.62mm machine gun bullets into the Iraqi troops.
“I came through right after the lead company,” said Army Col. Anthony Moreno, who commanded the lead brigade during the 1st Mech’s assault. “What you saw was a bunch of buried trenches with people’s arms and legs sticking out of them. For all I know, we could have killed thousands.”
