Looks like Ed has had a foreign policy epiphany. We won't hold our breaths for a domestic one though.

Koc is an old fashioned liberal...a member of the LOYAL opposition.

[AM2000]

I do not agree with him on any major domestic issue, from tax policy to the recently enacted prescription drug law. These issues, however, pale in importance beside the menace of international terrorism

Well. Madonna disagrees - "Our greatest risk is not terrorism, and it's not Iraq or the “Axis of Evil.”"

I think I'll go with Koch.

[Phantom Lord]

Koch, while wrong on so many things has always been a straight shooting, honest man from all that my memory tells me.

[dawn53]

This bears repeating!

I will do so despite the fact that I do not agree with him on any major domestic issue, from tax policy to the recently enacted prescription drug law. These issues, however, pale in importance beside the menace of international terrorism, which threatens our very survival as a nation

[JohnGalt]

They are pushing us out to make room for the liberals. ;)

LOL with this post, BTW. We can tell each other by the styles in which we employ humor--it's on a whole 'nother level.

I always did like Hizzoner the Mayor. At the very least, you always knew where he was coming from, and didn't have to parse the words out.

[JohnnyZ]

But the radicals who dominate the primaries love the red meat that is thrown to them, even when it comes from a mad cow.

Aw geez.

[MattinNJ]

Agreed-Koch was a straight shooter, even if you disagreed with him. I think a very effective ad with both Koch and Guiliani speaking on behalf of Bush would force the Dems to spend heavily in an area they should have locked up. The GOP won't win NY, but the Dems will be forced to spend heavy there with money they don't have.

[Blueflag]

Definitely worth reading bump

[Arkie2]

Hmm. Go figure. I understand Zell Miller's frustration with his party but Koch surprises me. Wonder how many Jewish voters will follow him into the Republican camp?

[Bilbo Baggins]

Now I understand why so many Democrats refuse to even think about becoming Republican or voting for one.

Our philosophy is: "If you need a helping hand, we will provide it." The Republican Party's philosophy, on the other hand, can be summed up as: "If I made it on my own, you will have to do the same."

If that is what they think about Republicans, they see us as selfish, possibly even hateful, and thus they can't stand us from the get-go.

At least this one, Koch, says he will vote for W.

In contrast, President Bush has confronted the terrorist threat head on. Immediately following the September 11 terrorist attacks, the president presented the core principle of what has become known as the Bush Doctrine, an articulation of American foreign policy that rivals in importance the Monroe Doctrine, which barred foreign imperialism from the Western Hemisphere, and the Truman Doctrine, which sought to contain communism around the world. The Bush Doctrine, simply stated by the president, is: "We will make no distinction between the terrorists who committed these acts and those who harbor them."

BUMP for Koch!

[Eva]

This is pretty amazing, thanks for posting.

[Cinnamon Girl]

Wow.

[areafiftyone]

WOW!!!
