Rev Al showed this clip on his show yesterday. People keep asking what happened to Rudy, he's the same POS he's always been.

When former New York Mayor David Dinkins supported an independent civilian complaint review board in September 1992, police protested violently and engaged in actions, according to a police department report, that were "unruly, mean-spirited and perhaps criminal."38 An officers' protest, sponsored by the police union, involved thousands of officers demonstrating at City Hall, blocking traffic to the Brooklyn Bridge, and shouting racial epithets; current Mayor Rudolph Giuliani participated in the protest.

Some officers involved in the protest's offensive acts were disciplined, and the police commissioner stated that the nature of the demonstration "raised serious questions about the department's willingness and ability to police itself."40 If further evidence of violent propensities were needed, an incident right after the City Hall protest provided it. As police were leaving the protest, several off-duty officers, all in civilian clothes, assaulted a man on the subway who had stepped on one of the officer's feet. The man claimed that when he attempted to apologize, the offended officer tried to punch him, and that in self-defense he then pulled out a razor and cut the officer's face. Six officers then reportedly beat and kicked him, and he suffered a broken jaw; several witnesses went directly to the police station to complain. In this case, the department did provide some accountability. Two of the officers were charged with felony assault, leading to one conviction on a misdemeanor charge that led to the officer's dismissal.

1. My friend, a musician hired to be at that rally, was there.

He said Giuliani was screaming into a bullhorn "BULL SHIT! BULL SHIT! BULL SHIT!"

Totally unhinged at stage. The Police were digging it, BTW.

8. Lynn Samuels on WABC, Jay Diamond on

WWOR, and Grandpa Al Lewis on WBAI were NYC liberal talk radio hosts.

10. Didn't know about Jay or Al. Did listen to Lynn...

so for me it felt like one against rush, grant, m savage for a good while.

11. I was blown away when Lynn would say on air about how shy she thought Rush was off the air.

And how she was the music coordinator for Sunday's Drudge Report. (She played mostly techno music.)

And c'mon! Do you remember how she'd always describe Giuliani as "vile" and "despicable"?

2. He's always been a POS. He made 9/11 much worse than it already was by his boneheaded

decision to locate the EOC in WTC #7 and his refusal to upgrade FDNY communications equipment.
