http://www.rawstory.com/2017/01/listen-rudy-giuliani-told-a-911-sex-joke-at-trump-inauguration-lunch/Giuliani said it all happened on September 14, 2001, when he rode with former President George W. Bush in a convoy of vehicles to the smoking rubble of the World Trade Center.
In the same car with me was my fire commissioner, Tom Van Essen, Giuliani said. And Tom had lost what turned out to be 343 firefighters. And President Bush recognized him from seeing him on television the prior two days. And he leaned over to Tom, grabbed his arm, and said to him, Tom, Im so sorry. How are things going? Tom looked at him and said, Much better now. My wife came home last night and I got lucky.
Thats locker room talk, Giuliani continued. President Bush remembered that so well that when he saw Tom three weeks later at a fire house dinner, he came up to him and said, Tom, are you still getting lucky? And Tom said, No, its worn out.
------------
And that's how much shame and dignity the Republican Party has nowadays. 3000+ dead innocents as a setup for a sex-joke.

They are a most humorless lot.
How come stand up comics all seem to be liberals?

I appreciate gallows humor, but that's not even gallows humor, that's just fucked up.
