Giuliani's father, Harold, sounds a lot like the "Rocky" character in the beginning of the first "Rocky" movie starring Sylvester Stallone. Remember how Rocky's trainer (portrayed by Burgess Meredith) scolds Rocky because Rocky is a failure as a boxer and beats people in order to collect money for a loan shark - it sounds exactly like Harold Giuliani. The fact that Rudy Giuliani successfully prosecuted Mafia chieftains, drastically reduced crime in New York City, brought businesses and jobs back to New York City, reduced taxes and moved many people off the welfare rolls and into paying jobs is a remarkable achievement for any man. It is more of an achievement for Rudy Giuliani because of his father's "Rocky" background. Most Italian Americans are not affiliated with the Mafia. The numbers of Italian Americans involved in any crime are statistically low compared with the non-Italian American population. This Newsweek article was written by bigots for bigots. Newsweek has no credibility anymore. Rudy Giuliani will win for the Republicans in 2008. The liberals are most afraid that he will be the Republican nominee. That is why the liberal media and the liberals in general are after him. I am voting for Rudy Giuliani for President in 2008. He is a great man and he will be a great president. God bless America. It is, and always will be, the greatest country on earth.
