All day today we are covering speakers and panels at the 34th Annual Conservative Political Action Conference in Washington, DC. This morning, we'll hear from Republican presidential hopeful former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani. He will be followed by Reps. Scott Garrett (NJ), Tom Tancredo (CO), and others.

No, no. You don't understand. We just want to win and we're unprincipled. /sarcasm
Rudy is very bright and I was impressed he gave today's nearly hour long speech without notes.
LOL! I love that. :)
Hey, I'm a pro-illegal pro-drug-dealer anti-law-and-order poster because I won't jump on the "pardon the BP agent" bandwagon.
But I don't let it bother me. I'm here to argue ideas and philosophy, and what do I care what people I can't even see say about me when they don't know me.
If we would all remember that we define our own self-worth, and that we shouldn't give others power over our own feelings, the insults would just roll off and we could discuss the substance of the arguments.
As Rudy has pointed out, most major criminals in NYC, especially murderers, came from fatherless families. And "Thou shalt not murder" is one of the Ten Commandments, which the nation of Israel was commanded to adhere to, starting with each family. So, the idea of combatting murder, or abortion, first, at the level of the family, but also in churches, and in terms of community witness and service, has merit.
It's a shame the forum owner has decided to let so many of the more ugly posts stand and to permit spam. It's ruining the forum and the media will have a field day portraying Republicans in the ugly stereotypes that we've all seen before.
He's not feeling well. He looks tired and old. I'm praying for his health but do not fear his candidacy at all.
They are ecstatic that the general public is being given such a negative view of who and what conservatives are all about.
You can't say that we haven't tried to amke this clear. But apparently - ideological purity trumps character right now.
You expect the President to veto his own agenda?
That concerns me about those concepts about FR.
For some here though, I'm sure they are orgasmic to hear that.
My sympathy for your complaint about being called a traitor is slightly lessened when you call other people whiners.
When someone is clearly a man and clearly more men than women are the ones running crying to Jim, you think it's bitter for women to laugh at that? ROFL. Poor sensitive you.
Some of your pictures you have a dog humping a Rudy supporters leg. I presume an accusation of bestiality.
In some it's a dog humping Rudy at a charity event. I presume an accusation of homosexuality for male Rudy supporters, slutdom for woman supporters. Or lesbianism if they mistaking him for a woman.
Let me complement you, your's is some of the finest, most incisive political commentary on the site.
Have you considered submitting it for publication.
Given the level support for Guiliani, I'm amazed at the number of gays and beastialists (I invented a new word) in the Republican party. I'm glad to see the big tent is working.
If I'm mistaken, I'd love to hear just what message potential voters are taking from your artwork.
Evaluating a person's enemies is an excellent way to arrive at a decision.
That wouldn't really surprise me.
You're equating calling people who like a Republican you don't like treasonous with my calling men who ask Jim to ban Rudy supporters whiners?
Words have clearly lost their meaning around here.
Hey, congrats! I didn't see it. Maybe someone will post it or a link. Hint, hint(s).
ROFLOL!! I know!
As will all of us who care about this country, not just our own personal agenda.
The same could be said for the supporters of Mayor Giuliani that have posted vicious, shrill messages calling anyone who disagrees with their candidate names.
Look at the last 3 pages of this thread - even if someone questions the Mayor's positions on gun control, abortion, or McCain-Feingold, they get shouted down and called names.
One poster spits on those who think abortion is an important issue. Another one appears to hate those who put their religious faith above their political party and even gloats about it.
I think the supporters of Mayor Giuliani have been far more hateful and angry than those who question his positions and level of conservativeness (with the exception of MadIvan, who does post thoughtfully and argues facts, not emotions).
Good point, my friend, good point.
