Rudy to Bernie - Will they both take a polygraph on this?

I can't agree more with this letter to Editor at The New York Times:

To the Editor:

Re "The Natural: Giuliani Plays the Role of Backer With
Relish" (news article, Aug. 31):

As the World Trade Center was falling, do you really think that Rudy Giuliani said to the police commissioner, Bernard Kerik, "Bernie, thank God George Bush is our president"?

I'm a New Yorker. Puh-leeze.

I think Rudy actually believes he really can make a legitimate run for the presidency in 2008. And offer us what? Patriot Act XX?
