Durham, NH — Rudy Giuliani said he does not believe it was a mistake for New York City taxpayers to pick up the security tab associated with visits related to his then extra-marital affair with Judith Nathan.

Following a town hall at the University of New Hampshire today, he took questions from the media where the issue hounding him all week inevitably came up.

“I think everything was done quite appropriately. All this has been answered. I think all this was answered 4 or 5 years ago. I looked at the newspaper accounts back 4 or 5 years ago. So this is a way of rehashing something that’s already been asked and answered,” Giuliani said.

Giuliani has called the reports this week that showed “obscure” city offices were billed for some of the security costs instead of the NYPD a “hit job.” He argues that since he received 24/7 protection as mayor, it is completely normal that all security costs were picked up by the city (the NYPD reportedly reimbursed city offices for their tab)–even his personal trips.
