Personally, I prefer Tancredo although I admire "America's Mayor," and this article sheds some light on Rudy's little known conservative and courageous accomplishments.
For protection against homosexuals? :0)
It's not that they can't see it - it's that they DON'T WANT TO see it!
Rudy was so liberal, according to these purists, that Reagan appointed him to serve at DOJ. Doesn't say much for Reagan's judgment does it? LOL
Means maybe you should like him too. And no, Rudy is no liberal. He is a fiscal, domestic, and foreign policy conservative that supports strict constructionist judges.
You are tho thilly!
As Tom Bevan of RealClearPolitics has pointed out, Rudy is an adherent of the same approach to illegal immigration that John McCain, Ted Kennedy, George Bush, and Harry Reid have championed:
"While McCain has taken heat for his support of comprehensive immigration reform, Rudy is every bit as pro-immigration as McCain - if not more so. On the O'Reilly Factor last week Giuliani argued for a "practical approach" to immigration and cited his efforts as Mayor of New York City to "regularize" illegal immigrants by providing them with access to city services like public education to "make their lives reasonable." Giuliani did say that "a tremendous amount of money should be put into the physical security" needed to stop the flow of illegal immigrants coming across the border, but his overall position on immigration is essentially indistinguishable from McCain's."
That's bad enough. But, as Michelle Malkin has revealed, under Giuliani, New York was an illegal alien sanctuary and "America's Mayor" actually sued the federal government in an effort to keep New York City employees from having to cooperate with the INS:
"When Congress enacted immigration reform laws that forbade local governments from barring employees from cooperating with the INS, Mayor Rudy Giuliani filed suit against the feds in 1997. He was rebuffed by two lower courts, which ruled that the sanctuary order amounted to special treatment for illegal aliens and were nothing more than an unlawful effort to flaunt federal enforcement efforts against illegal aliens. In January 2000, the Supreme Court rejected his appeal, but Giuliani vowed to ignore the law."
If you agree with the way that Nancy Pelosi and Company deal with illegal immigration, then you'll find the way that Rudy Giuliani tackles the issue to be right down your alley.

Far FEWER people vote on FR polls than are members!
BUMP 412
"If Rudy is the nominee, the money I usually contribute to the Republican Party will all go to the NRA. If Rudy convinces them he deserves it, maybe they'll give him some. I hope that's all the support he'll need."
Donate your money as you see fit.
"If Republicans unenthusiastically acquiesce, and the 'Rats turn out as usual, you get a repeat of 2006. (and Hillary/Obama/some other Maxist totalitarian to be named later.)"
Anyone who is unenthusiastic about defeating those scumbags should vote for them. They are no better.
Sorry. I don't pay enough attention. I'm sure you're right. :)
He favored anti-gun policies, he favored making NYC a 'sanctuary' for illegal aliens, he is a public adulterer and a liar. He supports every kind of abortion. He is a liberal.
I have no idea what you're babbling about....
Legally? And how come the right to own them for newcomers is gone? What makes NYC safer without allowing law abiding citizens to own guns? Every report I have read where gun rights have been reinstated have shown reduced crime. Also, crime rates decreased nationwide at the same time they did in NYC, so how does rudy get all the credit?
lol
What's bothersome about the Rudy threads is the paucity of reasoned debate.
Maybe you're just a far right wing extremist which would explain why you think someone right of center is liberal.
Here's a few for you:
and
Well, there is the Republican party with some conservative members and some not so conservative and then there's the evil Marxist liberal socialist Democrat Party. I'd rather have a conservative Republican in office, but I'll take a not so conservative Republican over any evil Marxist liberal socialist Democrat any day of the week. And I might express my unhappiness with some of his policies but I think I've learned my lesson about irreversibly trashing the Republican office holder or the Republican base or the party itself (at least not too much trashing). As they say, the alternative is unthinkable.
and one more:
We're all conservatives here. We support our country, support our president, support our military, support our constitution and support our traditional American values. Thank God for America! Down with tyranny and tyrants the world over! Thank God for Liberty!
Because that is what libs and rinos always expect as if they are entitled. Conservatives just need to tell'em to go pound sand.
Your presence here on this particular thread, and vigorous defense of Mr Pro Gay/Pro Abortion/Anti-gun/cheat-on-the-wife is clearly support.
