Stephen A Smith went off on Rudy Giuliani while on Hardball. On the face of it, it doesn't bother me, but what does bother me is that he gave no real reason for why he thinks Rudy would be a dictator (LMAO). Just another Wilbon with a louder mouth.

When asked by Chris Matthews about what he thought of the former New York mayor's chances to become President, Smith blurted: "It'd be a disaster!....Giuliani is a dictator as far as I'm concerned."

 

The following exchange occurred on the January 21, edition of "Hardball":

 

CHRIS MATTHEWS: I have a man here who's a real fan of Rudy Giuliani's, Stephen Smith.

 

STEPHEN A. SMITH, ESPN: Oh please, don't get me started.

 

MATTHEWS: What do you make of him in a general election?

 

SMITH: No, absolutely not! It'd be a disaster! If he became the next President of the United States that would be an absolute disaster. And I'm a say it why. It's because of who's in office now. Considering Bush, you're following him up with Giuliani? There would be no foreign relations whatsoever. I mean it would be an absolute, we'll be hated by the rest of the entire world! You cannot have Giuliani in office....Giuliani is a dictator as far as I'm concerned. That's his mentality.

There'd be "no foreign relations"? Nice train of thought, Smith, well spoken.

In kkk's 8pm post I asked what his new job was. So in fairness, I'll partially spill the beans as to what I do.

I write greeting cards.

Just kidding.

I work on technical documents for Industrial Gas Turbines and Gas Generators. What are those? Do a search I don't feel like explaining it. I work for a giant (evil) defense contractor. I have to deal with people in a foreign country on a daily basis, which is just so much fun. I'm kind of both an editor and writer of technical documents.
