Rudy/Time/More


Romney and Giuliani's solution: when asked about Iraq, they talk about terrorism. Writing in Foreign Affairs, Romney argued that "whether or not the current 'surge' in troop levels in Iraq succeeds," the U.S. faces "challenges that go far beyond any single nation or conflict." Giuliani told Fox News's Sean Hannity, "Whether Iraq turns out successfully ... we're still going to be at war." Romney and Giuliani also bash the Democrats as defeatists who don't recognize the jihadist threat and who want us to leave Iraq with our tail between our legs. In this way, they emphasize their antiterrorism toughness while keeping their Iraq views fuzzy. This gives them room to embrace a significant troop withdrawal next year once they have their party's nomination in hand.

And an inventory of Rudy's lies on his self-proclaim, untrue success as a crime-fighter is here.
