If Ye Love Wealth...

Republican ex-mayor of New York City Rudolph Giuliani won backing for his 2008 presidential bid from billionaire publisher Steve Forbes, who will also help lead his campaign, Giuliani's team said.

Forbes, editor-in-chief of Forbes Magazine which publishes an annual list of the world's richest people, will act as co-chair on the national campaign and as senior policy advisor to Giuliani, who is favorite to win his party's nomination for the presidency early next year.

Sorry, Steve. Back when you were campaigning, you touted yourself as a friend of gun owners.

You've just shown us you consider us unimportant and expendable if abandoning us will help advance your true priorities.

It's a false alternative, people. We don't need to choose between between guns or the economy. Prosperity comes from freedom. It always has.

Those that serve "mammon" are We The People's historical enemy. They have been ALL people's historical enemy. One of the purposes of the fed was to keep those that serve "mammon" on a tight leash. We've all seen how well that has worked out. Power, regardless of the form it assumes, corrupts. And, absolute power corrpupts absolutely.
