A break from the hostage situation in NH to get an update on Rudy's growing scandal.
This thing just keeps getting worse for Rudy as ABC's The Blotter gets more information that contradicts the former Mayor. This has become a textbook campaign scandal. Now, we're dealing with the lies and the cover-up of the original scandal about Rudy using taxpayer dollars to finance his extra-marital affair with Judith Nathan. Yesterday, Rudy tried to blame NYPD. NYPD's chief says otherwise. Lies and cover-up:
Giuliani said Thursday the unusual billing practice was not intended to hide anything but instead to speed payment of American Express credit card bills.
But the current New York Police Commissioner Ray Kelly said today he knew of no problems with the delay of payments before Giuliani was mayor, when Kelly served under Mayor David Dinkins, or since.
"I don't recall anybody, any statements about delay," Kelly told reporters.
He said all bills for the police details for Dinkins and now for Mayor Mike Bloomberg are handled directly "through the police department."
Back to you, Rudy. What's your lie to explains this?
Oh, wait. Rudy's not talking to the media today. Now we're seeing the pre-9/11 Rudy. That's the Rudy New Yorkers hated.
