Tough talk from a man that’s never seen a day of military service.

Rudy, I say this most respectfully to you, you-re no Ronald Reagan either! You’re not even presidential material. You’ve flip-flopped on so many key issues since being Mayor of New York, many are confused on where you really stand. Hell, many are confused on your gender identification!

GOP presidential hopefuls take the credibility test on Iran

Rudy Giuliani addresses the Republican Jewish Coalition’s candidate forum in Washington Tuesday morning.

WASHINGTON - “I didn-t call for a team of lawyers,” Rudy Giuliani wryly told a meeting of the Republican Jewish Coalition in Washington Tuesday morning.

The barb was directed at Mitt Romney, Giuliani’s rival for the Republican presidential nomination.

Giuliani also mocked former president Jimmy Carter, for his handling of the Iranian hostage crisis of 1980-1981.

He ridiculed the entire field of Democratic presidential contenders, for not using the term “Islamic terrorists” because “they think it is politically incorrect.”

And he mocked Sen. Barack Obama, for saying that as president he-d meet without preconditions with envoys from Iran, Venezuela, and other foes of the United States.

As if lecturing the absent Obama, Giuliani explained that Reagan had deployed a new generation of offensive missiles in Europe before being willing to negotiate with Soviet leaders.

“I say this most respectfully, you-re not Ronald Reagan,” Giuliani told Obama.
