And this interesting tidbit from Giuliani:
WASHINGTON, June 12 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- Once again, Rudy Giuliani showed why the more people learn about his real record, the less they trust the Republican presidential candidate to lead our nation. This morning, Giuliani told Granite State voters that he would lead America toward energy independence.
But unless "leading American toward energy independence" means continuing the failed energy agenda President Bush and Dick Cheney crafted for their special interest friends or putting the interests of his clients in Big Oil ahead of the American people, Rudy's rhetoric just doesn't match his record. Not only did Giuliani's first quarter fundraising report show him accepting more campaign cash from the oil and gas industry than any other candidate, but a review of his business ties shows him representing major domestic oil companies and refineries as well as Saudi Arabia's Oil Ministry and international energy giant, Citgo, which is controlled by Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez. In fact, the real Rudy Giuliani has been so busy cozying up to Big Oil that he's actually been called an "honorary Texas oil lawyer." [Time, 4/2/07]
