Giuliani More of The Same On Iraq

Rudy Giuliani is a fairly divisive character when he's painted in a corner and the last week has been no exception as he's attacked other candidates instead of talking about Iraq. In the recent past Giuliani has avoided saying anything about Iraq.

The Democratic Party just sent out a document with Giuliani's record on Iraq. Some of his comments from the release are below.

Giuliani Iraq Policy: Nothing More Than Stay The Course. "Indeed, none of the three front-runners -- Mr. McCain, former New York Mayor Rudy Giuliani or former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney -- offered much more than a stay-the-course line on Iraq and the general war on terrorism."

Giuliani Does Not Have Insight Into What Will Happen In Iraq. In an interview with MSNBC, Giuliani said, "Iraq may get better, Iraq may get worse, we maybe successful in Iraq, we may not be. I don't know the answer to that."

Giuliani Has No Plans of Having Specific Plans For Iraq. The New York Times reported, Giuliani said that the "fluid situation there [in Iraq] makes it hard to speak in specifics about the war."

Giuliani Doesn’t understand the facts on the ground in Iraq. Giuliani said, "For me, the Iraq war was about removing a pillar of Islamic terrorism, Saddam Hussein…Iraq, in the present condition that it is in, cannot offer the kind of support to Islamic terrorism that it could in the past."

It's hard run on 9/11 and dodge all the bullets in Iraq which has nothing to do with 9/11. His foreign policy is to avoid it.
