Standing ovation to start and end his speech.

Excellent! This is what I saw as well.

Thanks for the report.

When Rudy states in no uncertain terms that he will veto HR 1022 and any other AWB as well as all other forms of gun control I'll listen to what he has to say. But tell me you're going to ban my guns and I'll fight you all the way.

[Maynerd]

The bullying has been 90% by the RudyHaters. Rudy is plenty conservative enough. He accomplished more in NYCity in a few years then Hunter in 20.

Amen bruddah.

Rudy's cleanup and turn-around of NYC is nothing short of amazing. He has accomplished more as DA and then mayor of NYC than all the other presidential candidates {repub and dem} combined.

The freepers demanding conservative purity are disregarding an incredibly accomplished man. He doesn't just talk like Tancredo, McCain, Hunter, Thompson, et al; he has acted and delivered.

[politicalwit]

I'm tired of the RudyHater smears and won't back off.

Well, that least your support of Rudy lets us know you have no respect for the unborn. I guess your solution to abortion is to allow the queers to marry.

[RetiredArmy]

Rudy can woooooooo all he wants. This conservative is not going to vote for him.

[reasonisfaith]

Duncan Hunter is now in the game.

[DocH]

Rudy is plenty conservative enough.

TOTAL and UNEQUIVOCAL...

BULLSH*T.

We've listed, over and over again, ALL of his UNARGUABLY LIBERAL positions that point to the FACT that RINO-rudy is 95% LIBERAL... PERIOD.

Scummy comments like that is the reason your guy is losing

I didn't realize I had a guy.

Strange you refer to my comment as "Scummy". The fact still remains you are supporting an individual that supports abortion and gay marriage.

Truth kinda stings doesn't it?

[Blackirish]

The fact still remains you are supporting an individual that supports abortion and gay marriage.

Rudy has come out against gay marrage many times.


So you are either a scummy liar or just plain ignorant.

I'll give you the benifit of the doubt that your ignorant. So trying to explain Rudy's position on judges and abortion would be a little above your IQ grade.

Great posting, Flashbunny. I think you should add what I call the "no crickets" trailer because what I'm finding is that whenever I ask a rudy supporter a substantial question, I get no response.

Maybe your candidate is the one who's a liar. He certainly loses my vote.



Gay Rights:

CNN Clip:

Announcer: "As mayor he supported civil unions, and extending health and other benefits to gay couples."

ABC Clip: "I supported domestic partnership legislation and signed it"

Meet The Press:

Tim Russert: "So should gay people be openly allowed to serve?"

"I think people should be judged on the merits. And there should not be a specific focus on someone's sexual orientation."

[HANG THE EXPENSE]

Aint none of them wooing crap from conservatives.

Here's your proof for the frontrunner normally always winning. As far as your argument that the more people know about Rudy, the more is poll numbers will fall is a fallacy. Election coverage as greatly increased in the last month and this additional coverage coincides with Rudy's surge in the polls.

Here...Straight from the Queer's own news letter: "New York Daily News, March 8, 2004 Rudy opposes gay nups ban By James Gordon Meek, Daily News Washington Bureau WASHINGTON - Rudy Giuliani came out yesterday against President Bush's call for a ban on gay marriage. The former mayor, who Vice President Cheney joked the other night is after his job, vigorously defended the President on his post-9/11 leadership but made clear he disagrees with Bush's proposal to rewrite the Constitution to outlaw gays and lesbians from tying the knot.

Yet more...."I just don't see Rudy Giuliani being able to sway conservatives within the Republican Party," says Michael Long, chairman of the New York state Conservative Party. "The gay marriage issue draws a line down the middle of the street, and Rudy Giuliani is something of a champion of gay rights."

And yet more..."Leading contenders on both sides, such as Sen. Hillary Clinton (D-N.Y.) and former New York Mayor Rudy Giuliani (R), support civil unions and expanding other rights for gay Americans."...Southern Voice

Wait, there's more..."Rudy Guiliani said that he is "seriously considering" a presidential run. Those who think that the 9/11 hero would be a formidable candidate are forgetting about the 9/10 Rudy. Meaning, this is a guy who is pro-choice on abortion, pro-gay rights and moved in with a gay couple after a messy breakup with his wife that came as he was dating another woman.

If you would care for about another 900K pages of subject matter I suggest you simply go to Google.

My statement still stands with the required documentation. Appears your the apparent liar and/or just plain ignorant.

[PhiKapMom]

Thanks! You just made me burst out laughing! Way to tell it like it is!

You don't have a clue -- he said it was not a federal issue and he was right. It belonged in the States not a federal marriage amendment to the Constitution. Our States have taken care of it as its voters have seen fit.

National Republicans can lump it if they don't like his new domestic-partners bill, Mayor Giuliani said yesterday. "I really haven't thought about what the impact is on Republican politics or national politics or Democratic politics," Giuliani said. The bill he submitted to the City Council would extend the benefits city agencies must grant to gay and lesbian couples. "I'm proud of it," Giuliani said of the bill. "I think it puts New York City ahead of other places in the country." Source: New York Daily News, reprinted in 3/25/05 NY Observer May 13, 1998

Your boy could care less about the republican party platform. BTW...you're the one that is clueless.

[flashbunny]

You said:

"The early frontrunner for the GOP nomination hasn't lost since 1952."

The article says:

"Among Republicans, Nixon in ’60 and ’68, Ford in ’76, Reagan in ’80, Bush in ’88, Dole in ’96, and Bush in ’00 were all front-runners going in and the nominee coming out. Only Goldwater can be said to have pulled off an upset in 1964 by toppling Rockefeller."

So you said since 1952, and "hasn't lost", as in never. Goldwater passed Rockefeller. And the article references a time since 1960, not 1952 as you stated.

And you seem to miss this important fact from the toe sucker: "The key for the candidates is to become the early front-runner and hold the position for the first three quarters of 2007."

We're not even out of the first quarter of 2007. There's still time to go. Time will tell. But if the reaction of the rudy fans here is any indication, the biggest threat rudy faces is the truth about his own positions, statements, and policies.
