LOL--not hardly...
Why are we asked to compromise? Why not vote for McCain? Oh, you mean McCain-Feingold is more important than abortion? A stupid law concocted by Democrats is more important than the dignity of human life? I cannot agree with that.
I feel a historic remembrance coming on.
McClintock -vs- Shwarzenegger...
Quite fitting, as Rudy is as real a Republican as Pro Wrestling is a real sport.
Rudy isn't perfect, but he's got my vote.
The proper song lyric is:
A)
You can't always get what you want
You can't always get what you want
You can't always get what you want
But if you try sometimes you might find
You get what you need
B)
You, you got what I need but you say he's just a friend
And you say he's just a friend, oh baby
C)
I got what you need
So tell me what you need
or D)
I'll tell you what I want, what I really really want,
So tell me what you want, what you really really want,
I wanna, I wanna, I wanna, I wanna, I wanna really
really really wanna zigazig ha.
Posted this yesterday. Seems it's still apropos:
We ALL really need to calm down. The announced candidates have begun their campaigns (ie: fundraising drives) WAY too early. Some who may seem to have momentum at the moment will find America completely sick of them when it comes down to crunch time. Dark horses will surge only to fall back. Issues we haven't even thought of yet will be hotly debated. Gaffes will be made. Come November, 2007, or June, 2008 or, most certainly, November, 2008, things will be completely different than the way we view them now.
This preposterously early start for the campaign is, I think, an effort by the candidates to stretch out the fundraising "season" and the media to get more political bang for the buck, in controversy to feed their news programs, advertising for their bottom line, and advancement of their old-hippie agenda.
In other words, the politicos and the drive-bys are manipulating us AGAIN. Just look -- conservatives are already at each others throats -- just the way the media and the libs like it. Just like 2006.
We sheeple never, ever learn.
Pubs are in the same situation as the RATS in '04--hold your nose when you vote. Like the RATS in '04, the Pubs will lose the WH because of this fact.
This sentence assumes a great deal that may or may not be true. I personally don't believe that Rudy will survive the media onslaught which is coming the minute they believe he might actually win.
In point of fact, I don't think Rudy CAN beat Hillary for that very reason. I think even Romney has a better chance.
There are many MANY Americans who feel exactly like I do, and we are all entitled to a candidate that will support our interests as well.
The story isn't over because this guy (and apparently everyone else with a computer keyboard) says so.
Rudy Giuliani: Hillary Clinton with better dresses and better ankles.
"Maslow's hierarchy of needs is typically represented as a pyramid with the more primitive needs at the bottom and consisting of five levels: the four lower levels are grouped together as deficiency needs associated with physiological needs, while the top level is termed growth needs associated with psychological needs. While deficiency needs must be met, growth needs are continually shaping behavior. The basic concept is that the higher needs in this hierarchy only come into focus once all the needs that are lower down in the pyramid are mainly or entirely satisfied. Growth forces create upward movement in the hierarchy, whereas regressive forces push prepotent needs further down the hierarchy.
As you can see from the pyramid shown above, the first two levels of need are physical survival needs such as water, food, sleep, warmth and exercise and safety and security needs. The other more ethereal needs don't come into play until those two levels have been met."
The 2nd Amendment to the Constitution of the United States is all about SECURITY! My right to possess firearms for my SECURITY are not "ethereal needs". My security starts at home. Any people who depend on their government for "security" will not be "secure" or free. Rudy Giuliani will continue his pogrom against gun owners if he becomes president.
It won't matter what Giuliani thinks about about abortion if Iran drops a bomb on us.
It starts out with the claim that social policy doesn't cut it anymore, then devotes about one-half the commentary to Rudy's liberal social policies...
managed public works efficiently~~ made Times Square safe for theatergoers~~ aggressive initiative against drunk drivers~~ ban on sex shops~~ new parkland~~ "Public safety is a fundamental civil right..."~~ child welfare~~ crackdown on deadbeat dads~~ identified children eligible for health insurance
Dragging in Maslow's hierarchy.
Can't spell supersede.
IF you're a gun and 2nd Amendment-hating, abortion-supporting, illegal-loving liberal demonRAT or RINO.
Reminds me of the folks around here who claim we shouldn't worry about huge spending increases because the focus is on fighting terror. As though the president is totally incapable of dealing with more than one subject at a given time.
That kind of "logic" has never made any sense to me. There's no reason we can't fight terror, appoint strict constructionist judges, and protect gun rights at the same time.
Rudy Duncan --------------- ----------------------- Pro-abort Pro-life Gun grabber Pro-2nd amendment Pro-queer Pro-traditional family Pro-RINO Conservative Lots 'o baggage Just a small carryon :)Duncan Hunter is the ONLY declared conservative in the race.
Primaries are about philosophy, general elections are about parties.
There are FReepers on here trying to portray Rudy as a "conservative." In no way is Rudy a conservative. If elected there isn't a doubt in my mind that he would vigorously pursue the War On Terror. But his domestic policies, especially his social policies, would be a disaster for this country.
And for those who claim Duncan Hunter has no name recognition, let me remind you that Bill Clinton had no name recognition starting off either. It CAN be done. How 'bout, instead of complaining that Mr. Hunter has no name recognition or money, donating to his campaign and doing what you can to spread his name and conservative agenda.
