Rudy fundraiser asks for donations of $9.11

[yurbud]

Maybe they will start selling the rubble of the World Trade Center too.

A spokeswoman for Rudy Giuliani says it is unfortunate that a supporter throwing a party that aims to raise $9.11 per person for the Republican's presidential campaign is asking for that amount.

Abraham Sofaer is having a fundraiser at his Palo Alto, Calif., home on Wednesday, when Giuliani backers across the country are participating in the campaign's national house party night.

But Sofaer said he had nothing to do with the "$9.11 for Rudy" theme.

"There are some young people who came up with it," Sofaer said when reached by telephone Monday evening. He referred other questions to Giuliani's campaign.

3. They really should be asking for 23 dollars...

You know, 23 as in the 23rd floor of the WTC building where Rudy insisted the emergency ops center be located.

What a dope.
