What's the tackiest thing you've ever seen?

This would be high on my list. (Wikipedia commons image.)

Rudy Giuliani solidifies nitwit image

The former mayor, who also ran for president in 2008, pivoted to Romney's business experience, saying it should be considered a strength and blasted Democrats for making it a target on the campaign trail. 

"They tried to humiliate him because of that. You know something, if Governor Romney can have the success for America that he had for Bain Capital, Thank God! Our people would be working again," Giuliani said, referencing Romney's former private equity firm. 

This guy is such a twisted character. When I worked in NYC government, my boss once told me to rush to City Hall to join a meeting with Rudy. I said, "Absolutely not. Fire me if that's what you have to do but I will not be in the same room with that man." I skipped the meeting and wasn't fired. To think of breathing the same air as Rudy Giuliani! Ugh.

Sign of the times

AP today:

In the unlikely location of a North Carolina jewelry store near the beach, a lavishly jeweled cross and a ring once owned by Pope Paul VI sit under lock and key, awaiting transfer to an even less familiar venue for symbols of Roman Catholic authority: an eBay auction.

 Ugh.

What is wrong with some men?

Saw this in the news today:

Premier Silvio Berlusconi doesn't seem to be letting his legal woes get him down, joking Friday to two young blondes that he'd like to invite them to his famed "bunga bunga" parties.

Ugh. Some men are just disgusting. I'm lookin' at you, Silvio. You belong in a carnival.
