On the Road to Political Irrelevance with Rudy Giuliani

February 22, 2015 By steven-j-gulitti

Another famous New Yorker, Yogi Berra, once said, “We may be lost but we’re making good time.” That pretty much sums up the current state of Rudy Giuliani’s political reality and doesn’t bode well for his future. When it comes to Rudy … [Read more...]

April 26, 2014 By steven-j-gulitti

December 6, 2013 By steven-j-gulitti

Why don't the landlords demand that govts put the houseless/homeless in their rental properties since "give them a house" is too much?
