LOLOL!!! Exactamundo!!!!
LOL!!! Why are they so afraid of Rudy?
Seriously, all I've been seeing the past week has been thousands of anti-Rudy posts. The only thing I can figure is that some conservatives here are frightened when there is no reason to be.
I have to question any man who would pay for the 'death' of his own grandchild.
Rudy has crossed three lines here:
(1)RUDY's abortion position is in sharp opposition to the REPUBLICAN NATIONAL PLATFORM.
(2)RUDY would directly fund/pay for an abortion; in this case with his own money, for his own daughter. If that is the type of leadership our REPUBLICAN party needs...[complete the sentence yourself]
(3)RUDY takes the position that his daughters CHOICE takes precedent over the LIFE of his own grandchild.
Sorry, this guy is the modern day equivalent of 'Queen for a Day' TV show...we only need to watch him for one episode...
If this is how Rudy Giuliani deals with his own 'flesh and blood' how will he deal with the rest of the people?
[scratching my head in disbelief at his popularity]
Just my thoughts....
As far as I'm concerned, Rudy's support of the war is the ONLY thing going for him.
Because Rudy will cause a repeat of 1992 if nominated.
Ohfercryinoutloud!!!
If you want to know why our side loses...this is it....
So you want the team of Hillary/Obama Osama (Marxist Party)
We already tried that in 1992 in case you forgot.
Welcome to Hillaryland!!
Because social conservatives know that the vast majority of folks care about economic and national security issues over social issues that a President has little impact on. It's the equivalent of when the dinosaurs were thrashing in the tar pits.
"Because Rudy will cause a repeat of 1992 if nominated."
You mean he will easily win? I think that you mean he will be like another Bill Clinton. ???
"Because social conservatives know that the vast majority of folks care about economic and national security issues over social issues that a President has little impact on. It's the equivalent of when the dinosaurs were thrashing in the tar pits."
Makes sense.
I'm already starting to feel sorry for Rudy and nothing has really even hit the fan yet, you guys are brutal...
No, that he will run left and split the GOP as a result.
"No, that he will run left and split the GOP as a result."
The GOP is already split.
I agree. Let's all wait until the last minute to attack Rudy, everyone! It's more effective that way. /s
APf
"The GOP is already split."
And do you not think it will split much more if a leftist "republican" wins the nomination?
So the solution of the Rudy boosters is to split it even further apart?
Do you really think Rudy can foresake large swaths of the social conservative vote, and make up for it running leftward as a pro-war candidate into moderate independents and Dems who get signficiantly pro-war the more leftward one goes?
Or will you just follow the Rockefeller Repubican path of "leftward ho!" in your quixotic quest to restore the country club Republican vision of the perpetual minority party, but one that doesn't have to deal with all those annoying Bible-thumping pro-life and pro-gun rubes?
Please explain how a president influences the abortion issue? He signs bills written by the legislature. A president's primary function is the safety and security of our country. Personally, if we don't have SAFETY and SECURITY we'll all be wearing burkas and you'll still be talking about abortion??? We'll all wish we were dead.
Sure, Rudy isn't my ideal candidate, but who is? Bush has been rather liberal on most issues except the war and he's been too politically correct regarding the war. IMO, Rudy has more balls or is more assertive than Bush when it comes to getting things done.
No freedom, and you can kiss the abortion issue adios. Also, it's the Democrats that get abortions, and I want fewer of them. LOL
Oh, in 8 years of Clinton and 6 years of Bush, what piece of paper have they signed influencing Abortions? How have either of them either increased or decreased abortions? OK. Please someone give an answer.
