Just what ARE Rudy's qualifications that make him the "BEST man to lead as CIC?"

Just what ARE Rudy's qualifications that make him the "BEST man to lead as CIC?"

Please, I'd really like to know.

Do none of our other Republican candidates even compare to Rudy's superior military/war experience and knowledge?

His liberal positions on abortion and guns don't phase me because the voters won't allow a repeal in today's climate. In fact, those liberal postions may give rise to the BlueDogs again.

As distasteful as it is to me, I must agree with you on this.

But he still scares the hell out of me.

If he makes it, I'm afraid he'll have a dim-controlled Congress and Senate.

Perhaps not enough to overcome a veto, but then, I'm wondering if he would use the veto.

I've not seen President Bush use it as he should have and no one has yet accused him of being a RINO.

At least not the sane ones.

I never said that, YOU are the one who decided that he is the most qualifed because of his "personal revenge" philosophy.

So, Rudy is to blame for 9/11 for not going after Bin Laden and McCain helped the VietCong while he was a POW prisoner in North Vietnam.

Vote Hunter!

I would be interested in Giuliani's response to this question.

Would you sign H.R. 1022?

"H.R. 1022: To reauthorize the assault weapons ban, and for other purposes"

"You bet I'd sign it!"

The Rudy supporters are the ones making the assertion. I'm just asking why? Why do you feel Rudy is the BEST man to be CIC? What possible qualifications does he have for the job?

Hint: dropping out of the AirForce ROTC program and getting a deferment to avoid military service during wartime does not count.

Now, what are Rudy's sterling qualifications to be the BEST man to be CIC?

1. His policies are not much different than Clintons.
2. The Socialist news media love him.
3. He is pro gay marriage.
4. The Log Cabin Repubs like him no doubt.
5.

Well actually all of these rule him out.

Everything I said was hypothetical, it was based on your absurd premise of revenge and making the war personal in #11.

McCain was in the military but was an incompetent who lost five of his own planes, was taken prisoner, and may have betrayed his country.

What the heck is wrong with some of you? Like I said, I'm no McCain fan, but to just keep throwing that out there is irresponsible. You're no better than the MSM.

I can only vote for Rudy if he is the last resort.

Then why wasn't Rudy DEMANDING that something be done after the 1993 WTC bombing?

I believe David Dinkins was mayor of NYC during the first WTC bombing.

He's not Hillary.

Other than that, not much, IMHO.

I agree with you, fwiw, and I'm about as far from a McCain fan as it can possibly get..

How about this then?

The 'gun grabbing', anti-gun bias of liberals like Rudy,,,,,WERE responsible for leaving our aircrews UNARMED and UNABLE to defend themselves and their passengers on that horrible day.

Dinkins apparently lacked Rudy's ability to extract "personal revenge."

Strange. Usually the Rudybots are all over these threads, boosting their boy. I don't hear an answer to your very reasonable question.

the best in all of the USA? no, I never made that claim. some others might have, but the context is important. not everyone in the US is running for president, so the scope of the question is important. that's why I said in my reply: Colin Powell is certainly more qualified in military and affairs of State, to be CIC, then Rudy Giuliani. I wouldn't argue that comparison (as an example). But Powell isn't running.
