When Worlds Collide: Giuliani Speaks at Robertson's College

We knew that Our Man Rudy was brave when he led NYC through 9/11. But he was never more brave than yesterday, when he spoke on the campus of Regent University, where Pat Robertson, World's Most Embarrassing Christian, is chancellor.

WaPo's summary of the speech is here. Rudy managed to do 30 minutes , take questions, and never mention abortion.

We'd say more abut the speech, but you've read it all here before. Our Man says he's The Man because the defining issue of our day is the war on Islamic terrorism. So say we too.

Is this really the sort of feat we should appreciate in a politician? I would feel more comfortable if he was honest and offensive or simply refused to speak there at all.

Charm and diplomacy count for a lot. It always has. Politicians need friends so that they can fight their real enemies.

I'll admit that my praise is a little ironic here, but this is a better outcome for all parties than something more "honest" and hostile.
