Rudy's National Security Credentials

Josh Marshall looks a little deeper into Rudy Giuliani's dubious commitment to figuring out the Iraq war:

Rudy has very consistently been ducking the issue for months. He's toed the party line opposing Democratic plans for a pull out. But he ignores the entire issue of Iraq whenever possible.
