I agree 100%. If the Islamofascists succeed in destroying our civilization, none of the social issues will even exist. The president's primary job is to lead our country to victory in this war. Everything else is secondary.
Rudy is a pragmatist. He does what he needs to get the job done. He fixed a city with a (legal, who knows when you include illegals) population that is larger than 38 of these United States, that was broken by more than 45yrs of liberal rule, all the time fighting a liberal city council and press. He had no problem throwing Arrafat out of a UN function at Lincoln Center. He had no problem throwing an eight figure check back at a Saudi prince. He lowered the welfare roles in NYC by more than 300,000.
