Rudy Giuliani and wife Judi Nathan were enjoying the holiday weekend in the Hamptons yesterday when a publishing executive got in the face of the former mayor and gave him a little more than a piece of his mind. After stepping out of a Presbyterian church where he was attending an art fair, 69-year-old John McCluskey confronted the Giulianis on a Bridgehampton street, poked his finger in Rudy's chest and uttered a sentiment more than a few New Yorkers share, "You're the worst person in the world and I'm going to punch you out!"
Giuliani, not one to back down from a fight, stepped up to McCluskey "told him to bring it." The mayor, who will turn 65 this Thursday, fired back at his aggressor, "Alright, do it then!". While he was ready to go, his wife Judith repeatedly yelled at McCluskey, "I want him in jail!"
Police arrived quickly and did just that, charging him with second-degree harassment before he was released on bail soon after. McCluskey is also a documentary filmmaker, tarot card reader and author, who has written books such as "The Complete Book of Wedding Toasts" and "Amazing Mystic Tarot." He told Newsday, "I am not a respecter of him, and I told him essentially that he would prosecute and persecute a cheese sandwich if he got the opportunity."
The News calls McCluskey "an angry lunatic" and seems surprised when a witness describes him by saying, "He did not appear to be disheveled. [McCluskey] was dressed normally." The Giulianis have been vacationing together in the Hamptons for some time now, including before Giuliani had ended his previous marriage and possibly at one time on the dime of NYC taxpayers.

If McCluskey did this in NYC, I'm sure a group of people would be cheering him on.
I'm cheering him now. Go Big John!!
If only we had had four more years of Dinkins, followed by, I dunno, Al Sharpton or Fernando Ferrer, the city would be so much more beautiful today.
Well, it WOULD a lot less racist!
There would be a lot less Black and Latino men in jail for bullshit, there'd be a lot less racist harassment of people of color by cops, there'd be a lot less gentrification and yuppification of working class neighborhoods of color... and I could go on!
Sounds a whole lot better than what we got from Rudy and Billionaire Mike!
Would I be out of line in saying that I would spit on Rudy's grave....?
No, but please let me have a go dancing on it first.
Sorry - but you have to wait for me to piss on it first!
"I want him in jail!"
Nasty dried up skank.
Go Rudy! Way to not puss out in the moment of truth. The guy comes out of church all riled up to fight? Get a clue, Mr Tarot card reading dime-a-dozen wannabe filmmaker. And he didn't even have the balls to follow through on his threat. Sounds like Rudy pretty much punked him and had a good laugh watching him get carted off. Good riddance.
For serious?
Forty years from now, people will still be arguing about Rudy and his legacy. Even in Florida retirement homes, bluehaired retirees are gonna be scrappin' at the mention of his name.
But, but, but... no "real" New Yorker would ever retire to Florida!
Yeah, "real" New Yorkers just buy a winter home in Florida, establish residency to duck state income taxes, and then complain when the landlord of their rent stabilized apartment tries throw them out.
LOL

I saw Rudy in a midtown Barnes and Noble once and thought about letting him have a piece of my mind. A bunch of others noticed him too and I could sense them debating the same!
I would like to tape a sign to his back that says: "Spit on me: I am a repugnant slimeball".
That would be lots of fun.
REALLY want to piss off Rudy?
Go out and spend the $ 64 bucks [that's the Amazon price as of this morning] it would take to buy one of the 500 existing copies of HOMOTHUG, walk up to Giuliani and ask for him to autograph it!
Make sure you have your sharpie ready - and a friend videoing the action, so we can all share the fun on youtube!
Something tells me that "Big John" isn't a teetotaler.
