Agreed. I'm pretty sick of this "new tone in DC" crap. It hasn't gotten us anywhere except letting the left think they can lie with impunity and now they are even more outlandish and emboldened.
But as to a law and order guy, Rudy is all of that. And he doesn't take crap from anybody. Kicked Arafat out of a concert hall in NYC during a time when Arafat was being hosted as the most frequent visitor at the Clinton WH. Clinton was ticked. LOL
Anyway, Rudy did the same thing with Fidel Castro and refused to meet with race baitor Al Sharpton. One thing about Rudy, no matter how you feel about his position on social issues, he's got guts.
All they need is one or two "extremists" to run up the flagpole per cycle, and they get their way every time.
McCarthyism and HUAC did more to wreck the right, and move the bar far to the right than any commies ever could have imagined in their wildest dreams.
We need a president with guts!
Many years ago, when Rudy was mayor, I stopped to get a shoeshine in NYC. The shoeshine guy was an African American older gent, the kind of guy you wish was your granddad. We got to talking about Rudy, and he said "Guliani cleaned up the streets" and he loved him for that. Well, that is OK, but remember Hitler did the same things in Germany while outlawing guns for citizens. Rudy is a good guy, but he misses the point - guns don't create crime, people do - and I'm afraid that Rudy would be too quick to try the old failed policies of banning guns to prevent crime - what we need now are more armed citizens, not less.
Anyon who is such a wuss that they're afraid of scary looking guns does not have "guts".
