Playing the Giuliani gaffe right

The latest Rudy Giuliani story – his staff cancelling a visit to a farm because they found out the owners aren’t wealthy enough to be hit with an estate tax -- cuts different ways. Yes, it’s an embarrassment of sorts, but better yet, it demonstrates that a family has to be pretty darned wealthy to be worried about that tax.

In other words, as Ronald Reagan would have said, “There they go again, those Republicans. Rudy has a hard time finding a couple with an estate over $4 million dollars who need to worry one bit about the estate tax. And look at all the time and energy they spent looking out for wealthy people. Are you that wealthy? If not, do you think a Republican like Rudy Giuliani would get that worked up about protecting your interests?”
