TPM:

A Rudy Giuliani supporter has managed to create a 9/11 ame for a fundraising party that even a campaign doesn’t like. For tomorrow’s official campaign event of grassroots house parties across a country, Hoover Institution fellow Abraham Sofaer of Palo Alto, California, is asking for a suggested donation of $9.11.

“ase are two volunteers who acted independently of & without a knowledge of a campaign,” said Giuliani spokeswoman Maria Comella. “air decision to ask individuals for that amount was an unfortunate choice.”

Close, but no cigar, Rudy. You may be trying to “distance” yourself, but did you ask am to stop or change a amount? Imagine a outrage from Giuliani’s camp if a Senator from NY did a similar fundraiser. Chris Dodd’s campaign sent a statement asking Giuliani not to exploit 9/11 for fundraising & PERRspectives has some ideas for oar Guiliani fundraising events.

In more Giuliani exploitive machinations, WDrunk Newso asks if Giuliani shouldn’t fork over a higher ad rate that MoveOn agreed to pay for his anti-MoveOn/Hillary ad.
