The Mayor of 9/11 Town Gets His Mojo Back

With all the fuss over his daughter's alleged shoplifting spree earlier this month, Rudy Giuliani has been unusually subdued about the proposed Ground Zero mosque and community center site, giving a lukewarm interview with "The Today Show." Is Rudy losing his zazz, his uncanny ability to turn every conversation into a symposium on 9/11 and himself?

Apparently not! After throwing out the first pitch at a Cyclone's home game last week, Giuliani was asked a straightforward question about which team he would be rooting for in the game, the Cyclones or their rivals the Staten Island Yankees, reports Brooklyn Paper. And he responded: “I remember I came here the Friday before 9-11...There was a beautiful view of the World Trade Center — there was a nice view of the towers from Staten Island’s ballpark, too.” Giuliani reminisced "a little more" about the sight of the buildings (as Brooklyn Paper puts it, "whose destruction made him a national star"), before coming back to the original question, and still not answering it. Here's a little song for you Rudy, Mayor of 9/11 Town FOR LIFE.

    Rudy's political career is dead. However, his lucrative security consulting services around the world, including Muslim countries, are still very available.
