NYC group calls Giuliani comments on AIDS 'hypocrisy'
"Charles King, president of Housing Works, the New York-based service provider for people with the illnesses:
"[In his eight years as mayor of New York City, Giuliani] showed absolutely zero concern for people living with AIDS and HIV. We had to litigate against him from the beginning of his term to force his administration to follow New York law with regard to the provision of services and care to persons with AIDS and HIV."
He called Giuliani's declaration "gross hypocrisy." Giuliani's administration pulled his group's city contracts, he said, as retaliation for their frequent, very aggressive criticism of the mayor and his policies.
As mayor, Giuliani won plaudits in the gay community for his enactment of a 1998 domestic partnership measure that extended benefits to partners of city employees.
That's because Rudy LIVED WITH THEM!
As a presidential candidate, however, he has been criticized for backing away from his support for civil unions.
Yeah, 'cause Rudy is a flip-flopping liar!
Housing Works was among many groups to sue Giuliani's administration on free speech issues. In 1998, the group won federal court approval to use the plaza outside City Hall for the annual World AIDS Day observance. Citing terrorist threats, Giuliani had closed the area around City Hall to public gatherings but allowed exceptions for celebrations of a Yankees World Series victory and a ceremony to honor astronaut John Glenn.
We don't need a petty, vindictive asshole taking over from Bush!
Hard to believe, but Rudy would be WORSE!
King recalled that his group was "surrounded by police in riot gear" and confined in penned areas while police sharpshooters kept watch on the roof of City Hall during the event."
Rudy seems in his element when it comes to deploying the fascist forces of the police state, huh, readers?
