Ted Olson Supporting Giuliani
American Spectator ^ | 2/13/07

Posted on 02/13/2007 12:34:44 PM PST by zarf

Theodore Olson, the stalwart conservative lawyer and former solicitor general for the Bush administration, told the Spectator he will be supporting Rudy Giuliani's presidential bid.

"I admire his character, his capacity for leadership, his instincts, and his principles," Olson said over the phone this afternoon. He said he will help Giuliani raise money as well as offer advice on legal issues and domestic policy matters that involve constitutional questions.

Congratulations Rudy! Ted Olson is a conservative thru and thru.

Next Newt Gingrich will endorse Rudy. Do it Newt!

If you can walk away smiling from the killing of 47,000, 000 babies on the basis of an implausible hypothetical medical situation, how can I believe anything you say?

If you think he was smiling on the morning of 9/11, you're dumber than I thought.

How about the ticket Guiliani/Olsen? That sounds like a winner. Only if Ted were 15 years younger.

Olson's great, but I don't see him being a VP pick. Politicos and policy wonks would love him, but he doesn't bring much to the ticket, especially on a Giuliani ticket, as both are prominent lawyers.

I do see Olson getting a high level cabinet appointment though. AG or Sec.of State.

Don't send me this vile stuff privately using FR e-mail:




You don't have a clue about my beliefs. You have taken comments and applied your own warped interpretations.

Nowhere did I even imply that I am a Rudy supporter. Nowhere did I imply that I support abortion or the gay lifestyle. Your sick mind made that up.

"I would love to have a national Republican candidate that upholds my conservative Christian values. However, I'm sure that any of the Republican candidates would be less destructive tham Hillary or Obama or Edwards."

"I just abhor when people post things in such a hateful manner as you. That is true fodder for the DU who lurk this site. I'm sorry for you and will pray for your hateful spirit."




I didn't e-mail you privately and except the same respect back. I say what I have to say in the open. Unlike you, I don't play juvenile games.

Now,

"You don't have a clue about my beliefs. You have taken comments and applied your own warped interpretations. "

You support of a baby killer advocate, ole Rudy tells me that you have no qualms about supporting MORE abortions. Your supporting of ole Rudy and his PRO homosexual stance tells me you agree - or if not at the very least a HYPOCRITE. Oh, I know, you or your partner, wife, spouse of whatever ... would never allow an abortion in YOUR life but it's okay for others ... isn't that how it goes - pure BIGOTED HYPOCRISY! No, it's OBVIOUS what your "beliefs" are. You SHOW it in WHO you support - Ole Rudy.

"Nowhere did I even imply that I am a Rudy supporter. Nowhere did I imply that I support abortion or the gay lifestyle. Your sick mind made that up."

Yes, you did either directly stated that or implied that YOU support ole Rudy. Look who's name calling now - YOU! Oh, I forgot, You have the "right" to be a hypocrite but don't dare call attention to that FACT. I'm not the one with a "sick mind". Perhaps YOU need to take a look in the mirror to find that hypocritical person.

"I would love to have a national Republican candidate that upholds my conservative Christian values. However, I'm sure that any of the Republican candidates would be less destructive tham Hillary or Obama or Edwards."

BULL! If you can't cut it with your day job there's always comedy ... . You'll support whoever appears to be popular. You are NOT a conservative - LOL! Dream on.

Yes the usual, trying to justify your support of ole Rudy with the lessor of the two or three evils argument - yaaawwwwnnnn. it's so passe. It doesn't hold water. It's like this for people like you, when you stand for NOTHING you'll fall for anything and then look for excuses to defend your lack of good values/beliefs. You're easily lead. You're easily compromised.

"I just abhor when people post things in such a hateful manner as you. That is true fodder for the DU who lurk this site. I'm sorry for you and will pray for your hateful spirit."

You know what I "abhor" dishonest hypocrites who call OTHERS what they ARE. Don't bother to "pray" for me. We don't have the same God. I don't "feel sorry" for you. You are making a conscious CHOICE in who you support. I don't need or want the pity or prayers of the ungodly. My "hateful spirit" is transference on YOUR part. I'm simply calling YOU on your dishonest hypocrisy and YOU HATE THAT.

Like other dumbed down people ... you're so unoriginal. DU is the forum for YOU! ========================================================== Send me no more of your childish text tantrums.

GROW UP!

Stand for something, for a change.

I would imagine it is critically important for someone of you caliber to have the last word - so have it! I will not be responding further. You've wasted enough of my time.

He supports a gun-grabbing, abortionist, homosexual activist, amnesty cheerleading liberal.

Your support of Giuliani proves that you support the homosexual agenda, gun-control, amnesty for illegal aliens and partial-birth abortion.

Rudy isn't even a RINO - Rudy is a raving liberal on every single issue, other than the WOT. He is just as far left as ANY Dem candidate out there....

I see you are back.
Just as I guessed you can`t even begin to understand the concept of "intelligent" discussion as evidenced by your posting history.

Here is just the first page for all that want to see.

http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/user-posts?id=26707

Maybe I should take the same attack as you and suggest that you are a liberal,sleeper troll,posting nonsense,insults and racist attacks to make FR look bad?

Jim,is this really something FR is proud of,knowing that the real enemy is scanning these pages every day to find anything to paint us and all Conservatives as racists?
