2008 Candidates Travel: Rudy Goes Native in Philly
Former mayor and GOP flip-flopper Rudy Giuliani was in Philadelphia recently to beef up his (non-existent) anti-illegal immigration credentials. And since he used to lord over New York City--a place not exactly known for its above board labor force--where did Rudy get a bite to eat while still hammering home his message that illegal immigration must be stopped? Geno's Steaks, of course.
The cheese steak palace is probably just as famous these days for its xenophobic signage as its Whiz-drenched subs. Giuliani did take a moment to explain his position on immigration:
Immigration is wonderful...We need people who are going to inform us, give us new ideas, but it has to be legal. Illegal immigration is a bad thing.
We'd love to know if Rudy picked up one of Geno's shirts with the slogan "I'm an American so I order in English" to go with his dinner.
