I was directed to this today
"When you confront a problem you begin to solve it." -Rudy Giuliani
This from a man who used tax payer money on his affair of his wife with 2 kids, seems very contradictory to what the code is supporting, and yet they actually, quote him, also calling people "too stupid" to run for president

Boof My Dildo2 votesI guess if you really want to know
Boofing is the act, or art, of keeping the bow of your kayak from diving underwater, and it is without a doubt the most important skill to learn for paddling creeks. Most notably, you can boof waterfalls and steep drops, but you can also boof holes, pourovers, reactionaries, and even eddy lines.
jpguy9021 votesThats very informative, thank you.
VoidStaresBack1 votesSomeone's personal moral code doesn't detract from the wisdom of what they say. It may make them a hypocrite, it may be strange that they said it in the first place, but it's the words that are important, and they are merely crediting their source.
BrawlinHarry1 votesTheres some great quotes from nazis, war criminals and murderers. Should we use them or look for similar quotes made by better people?
I think theres only one answer: yes. I am offended by rudy guiliani and his work with donald trump. I would very much like the quote to be swapped with another.
SaberRattler1 votesThen let's go to the extreme. Organic farming has its origins in fascism. Scientific breakthroughs in both medicine and space were made by helping extremely questionable if not outright criminal scientists in Op Paperclip. I suppose we should discard those.
This is a rather benign quotation by a certainly debatable if not often controversial politician, but let's leave it at that. There's no reason to make a mountain out of a mole hill.
If someone across the political spectrum says something that's not inflammatory, just take it and run. Otherwise we're going to start crossing a lot of names off lists, including people of interest that you may agree with. There isn't a single person that hasn't said something at least dumb or controversial at least once. If we're talking about politicians, each definitely has more than one "moment;" albeit some more than others.
This isn't one of those times. Leave it.
