I sure wish he'd speak to abortion according to the faith we share. Catholics are totally pro life, and thus I will have a heavy heart when I vote for him if he's the GOP nominee, but I will vote for him as it will be the only way to vote against Hillary or any other damn democrat.
It gets tiresome, Peach. It's an invite to flame wars.
No problem. But Giuliani actually believes and preaches that abortion is a constitutional right. That partial birth abortion is a constitutional right. To say that our great God-fearing Christian Founders would actually write something like abortion rights into the Constitution of the United States and then tell us the importance of maintaining a moral society as this Republican form of government will fail under any other is absurd. Not only is abortion evil, but to suggest that these great Godly men would hide abortion between the lines of our now sacred founding documents is the evil lie in the extreme.
I'm really amazed watching them throw conservatives like Rep. Sessions and Ted Olson and many, many others under the bus.
That's really good, Phil and too damn true.
Let's hear again from those who say there's no differences between the two parties.
Hillary as CIC or Rudy, or McCain? I'll take either of the latter two, thank you very much.
Within minutes, running to defend Peach. And you call me a kiss up. LOL
Look, I've had it with all you phony baloney, self professed conservatives. You're a bunch two-bit losers. Jim comes out from behind the curtains for a few weeks, speaks the truth and you all start climbing the walls. Afraid of losing your website to promote your wishy washy politics and soap opera antics.
The term used for both Sessions and Olson is "sell out."
Oh yes - I've seen some freepers suggest their vote was "bought".
I don't think there's a conservative alive that some freepers won't denigrate.
I am not aware that I inferred that the RNC 'picks' Republican candidates.
Where did I go wrong?
Please advise so I don't make that error again.
Thank you.
Climbing the walls? LOL
What planet do you live on? Those of us who like Rudy are rejoicing at his climbing poll numbers which eclipse any other Republican, announced or unannounced for the presidency. But carry on; I couldn't pay for this kind of amusement.
Defending my friend Peach is kissing up?
Get real. YOU pinged Jim to your post and that my dear, is kissing up, --- a practice I might add, you've mastered.
My politics are not wishy-washy. I make informed decisions and I take my time. I do not have a candidate at this juncture.
I forgot to ping you my post wherein I mentioned you.
Have you noticed that 4 freepers who supported Rudy have been banned in the last week? Another one today. We're being picked off one by one.
I hope they enjoy the echo chamber they're creating. LOL
Which four?

No, I haven't noticed. I doubt I can name his supporters other than PhiKapMom and Areafiftyone and they're both still here, (I think).
If Rudy is the nominee, I will vote for him, but it won't be because of his views on social issues.
In fact, on Sept. 10th, 2001, I would never have considered voting for Giuliani.
I am a Sept. 11th voter, and I understand what changed that day. Rudy Giuliani proved himself during that crisis. I want a Proven Leader as President.
The only political machine that can come into power here and immediately stop all abortions is the Taliban. I'm afraid there are some here that would cheer that on as acceptable as opposed to incrementally reducing, changing hearts and mind, like mine was changed.
The Big Picture
Hillary plans another Nam
So does OBL
Perot '08 will put OBL in the WH

Who does OBL and Hillary fear in '08?
Does America need a historian or a tough street fighter?
