Personally I think JimRob’s anti-Rudy campaign has been a bit overboard,

"Extremism in the defense of liberty is no vice!….Moderation in the pursuit of justice is no virtue!"

Barry Goldwater, 1964 GOP Convention.

JimRob hasn't gone overboard, he's just doing what any real conservative who owns a conservative web forum would and should do, acting to defend and protect our liberties and our conservative values. Giuliani is an enemy of both liberty and conservative values, and a conservative web forum should not allow his operatives to infiltrate the site with the intent to propagandize on his behalf. I commend JimRob for taking the steps he took, I would have done the same thing only sooner.

To the extent that certain posters were actually paid operatives of the Giuliani campaign, or really indistinguishable from same, I totally agree with banning them. However, the suggestion that Giuliani would be as bad a President for our nation as Hillary is overboard IMO. We face a genuine danger of having Hillary and her whole criminal political machine back in the White House, and we must be very clear on the importance of preventing that. We need an electable GOP nominee to keep Clinton out, and depending on how things play out, how the polls go, who jumps into the race and who jumps out, it’s quite possible that Giuliani will be the best option. It’s also quite possible he won’t be. But taking the attitude that he’s some sort of evil incarnate is just destructive hyperbole that increases the risk of getting ourselves another Clinton administration.
