Letter from Rudy

Got this e-mesage from Rudy Guiliana this morning. It starts off very well:

Dear MXXX, Last night, in Madison Square Garden, I took the stage at the Republican National Convention to speak to America about the threats we face in the world, the events we have been through together over the last three years,

But then he strays off course:

and the clear, steady leadership of President George W. Bush that has guided us through these difficult times.

Wait, he's back on track:

Millions of Americans tuned their TVs to convention coverage last night and heard my words. And many more will hear the words of others who will come before our convention. They will hear our story. Will you help us tell the story to those who don't tune in? www.GeorgeWBush.com/Rudy

Oh no, he's fallen off again:

President Bush has been the steady hand we need in these times of uncertainty and danger. He understands the stakes. He makes decisions based on deeply held beliefs, not the political winds. He chooses to fight terror in places like Baghdad and Kabul, rather than New York and Kansas. It is the right way to fight this enemy and it is a fight we must win. In order to keep the pressure on al-Qaeda, we must keep George W. Bush in the White House.

Wait, he's back:

In order to take the fight to our enemies, we must have the strength of conviction, and support for our Armed Forces. This is not a fight for those who talk tough, and then leave our troops unarmed. This is not a fight for those who talk about the need for better intelligence, but have a history of voting against it. This is not a fight that favors sensitivity and nuance. This is a fight that requires strength, determination and resolve.

Ohhh, darn, lost him again:

Will you help ensure this fight is won by contributing $1000, $500, $250, $100 or even $50 to the President's campaign? I hope I can count on you to help me tell this story. As you watch the convention tonight, you will know that you have helped us reach millions that may not be watching. You have spread the message to those who may not watch, but need to know. You will make the difference. Sincerely, Rudy Giuliani

Darn it, Rudy, you had me going a couple of times. Sorry, I'd rather give my entire life savings to Gay Hamsters of America than give one penny to your sorry political organization.
