Do we want someone who is busy revamoing all of his positions, or soemone who sticks to a core set of beliefs.
so only those who have served in the military may be C-I-C?
Of course not, but it should not be immaterial either, especially if you are looking to force feed the military a bunch of political correctness.
Giuliani favors extended civil-rights protection for gays and lesbians. Giuliani urged, by letter, to the New York Senate Majority Leader to pass the state's first ever gay rights bill, but did it privately.
"I am writing to convey my support for the current legislation to prohibit discrimination against gays and lesbians, and to urge you to allow the bill onto the floor of the Senate for prompt action."
"...It is my belief that we can penalize discrimination [against gays] without creating any potentially objectionable special privileges or preferential treatment."
--New York Post, June 5, 1993
Now Rudy Giuliani has jumped on the bandwagon, pressing the state Republican Party to release a gay-rights bill to the Senate floor for a vote. Marching in Sunday's [Gay Pride] parade, he has enlisted in the struggle to destroy the family. What a perfectly abominable springboard to seek high political office.

Giuliani said homosexuality is "good and normal."

On Gay Domestic Partnership:

Rudy Giuliani: The Knight and The Queen 11/28/2001
According to The London Times, New York City Mayor Rudolph Giuliani gives kisses before he leaves every morning, but to neither his estranged wife, nor his girlfriend. Instead, says The Times, Sir Rudy gives a peck on the cheek to the two homosexual men hes living with. We always get a little kiss, its cute, says wealthy car dealer Howard Koeppel, with whom Giuliani has been sharing an apartment since June. When Giuliani was recently knighted, Koeppel tells The Times that he told Sir Rudy to call him Queen Howard. Koeppel (63) and his homosexual lover Mark Hsiao (41) have been comforting Giuliani, and trying to make him laugh, in the aftermath of the September 11 attacks. On the way to a recent fundraising dinner for the pro-homosexual state lobby group, The Empire State Pride Agenda (ESPA), Koeppel ribbed Giuliani by saying that if the ESPA was able to raise $100,000 donation for the homosexual victims of the September 11 attacks, Giuliani should agree to appear on Showtimes controversial Queer as Folk dressed in drag. Surprisingly, Giuliani agreed. Marty Algaze of Gay Mens Health Crisis once summed up Queer as Folk a show that touts graphic sexual activity as one of its biggest draws as one that would shock a lot of people. Showtimes Queer as Folk was inspired by the original series in Britain, which featured a storyline in which a 29-year-old man has a sexual relationship with a 15-year-old boy. The propensity to shock people is not new to Giuliani, who likes to dress in womens clothes as a stage act, and even did so once at a Pride Agenda fund-raiser. According to the Times, Giuliani has attended every gay pride parade in New York during his eight years as mayor. In 1992, during his first run for mayor, Giuliani took part in a homosexual pride parade that included a contingent of pedophile activists marching behind a banner for NAMBLA (North American Man/Boy Love Association).

I wonder how that compares to the rate of other types of discharges? It seems like a small number.
so I guess you also have a major problem with VP Cheney who received 5 deferments.
We don't keep track of such things. We have more important things to worry about. The gays aren't a problem -- they're good soldiers. The Arabs are the problem.
"Isn't it possible that Giuliani will revamp his position on this issue (assuming that the posted article is correct) now that he's not mayor of NYC and is campaigning for the presidency?"
Are you saying that stated positions don't matter? That his is in flux and that's ok. That a candidate can say absolutely anything to get himself elected? Have we turned into the people who say that "principles don't matter"?
"First Lady"?????
NEVER WAS..............never will be.
This article is from a paper in Milwaukee published in 1999 quoting unnamed aides of Giuliani as saying he opposes "Don't Ask, Don't Tell."
Oh but it's a smoking gun that will destroy the Giuliani candidacy.
BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!
"taking note of the fact that there had been an increase in the number of gays expelled from the military since the policy was put in force."
Because of their orientation or their actions? Hmmmm.
See post 39.
Rudy is a RINO writ large...
Semper Fi
A RINO with a big FR fan club too, apparently.
I like the guy. But he should be running a butcher shop in Queens, not be CIC
Knock yourself out proving that Giuliani is actually for "a gay in every foxhole."
Did you know that Rudy once wore a dress?
That is called a strawman.
