RUDY DRAGGED DOWN

March 3, 2007 -- WASHINGTON - Rudy Giuliani's liberal stance on abortion, guns and gays wasn't his biggest problem yesterday as he addressed a conference of conservative activists - it was his having dressed in drag.

A whisper campaign targeting the front-running GOP White House contender's cross-dressing stunts at gala political dinners in New York and on "Saturday Night Live" was the hot topic among right-leaning activists.

Definitely not Uncle Miltie. He couldn't have worn a mini skirt.

[LoneRangerMassachusetts]

He is not a cross-dresser, he had some fun at 2 fund-raisers. So what? Some here carry intolerance to an extreme.

Dressing in drag as the court jester may be chic. But what leadership message does one get from the king dressed in drag? I suspect one that pulls out all stops on the hedonists. Just what we need, extreme perversity as diversity.

[silentreignofheroes]

I see you corrected that.

[tsowellfan]

Rudy is one of the least likely persons to be a cross dresser or a metrosexual that I can think of

I agree. It was more than at 2 fundraisers. Rudy often did that for laughs and to play pranks on friends (especially famous ones). The fact that he's the least likely to be a metrosexual is what makes it so funny. The irony.

Oh well, Rudy's not my favorite candidate but I think conservatives are being unfair with the crossdressing. If you have a problem with his stances on certain issues, then you may have a point.

[starbase]

Pro-gun control? Pro homosexual agenda? Pro abortion on demand. Endorsed Mario Cuomo? Etc., etc.

He doesn't pass my test, nor that of many other GOP primary voters.

I agree. I've always thought mentioning Ruddy as the GOP candidate was a total pipe dream. Slow news cycle, I thought, it could never happen. Maybe the media throwing it on the wall to see if it would stick.

Never include me with your us.

I will only call for a lynching of child molesters unlike you who are aiding and abedding.

The Clintons are affiliated with the same child molesters that Giuliani supports. I will stand by Duncan Hunter regardless of what any pole you whip out. I will win or lose without compromising my morals.

I wouldn't care if the entire field of candidates showed up in dresses at an event. It's for fun, laughing at themselves, doing something light-hearted. If they debated in them I might have second thoughts!

[tsowellfan]

Oh well, since it's before the primary I suppose it's not unhealthy to have the debate. I would pick Rudy anyday over Mcain.

I just hope all can unite behind the candidate after the primary.

[wireman]

You know, I'm not Rudy supporter, but the level of discourse (on both the 'pro-' AND 'anti-' sides) could really use some work.

Amen to that! But I seriously doubt that we'll see it anytime soon.

I'm not going to get on here and render a judgement about Mr. Giuliani one way or another, but let's not pretend there aren't some serious warning signs here, folks . . .

When it went from a joke to looking better than my mom and my mom's a pretty good looking lady

Thanks :) You gave me confidence about my sexuality. I never found Rudy or another man dressed as a female to be attractive.

[garv]

He marched in the "Gay Pride" parades in which NAMBLA was also marching. I doubt he literally marched alongside their banner. If he did and there's a photo he might as well drop out now, but I'm sure he's not that stupid.

He is, however, lacking in enough moral conviction to refuse to march in a parade that embraces pedophiles.

[Alberta's Child]

The fact that he's the least likely to be a metrosexual is what makes it so funny.

Really?!

On what do you base this observation?

[zbigreddogz]

Again, I want proof he marched along side NAMBLA. Not that he was at a gay pride parade.

[wireman]

Imagine these photos on large placards on "the Arab street" for the next eight years..

Yeah. They may stop loving us like they do now!

Ayup. And if anyone disagrees with you, just hit him with your purse.

[JennysCool]

So I'm guessing the Free Republic production of "Charley's Aunt" is pretty much out of the question.

[tsowellfan]

So going after al queda is a law enforcement issue?

You're putting words in my mouth now.

Fabulous tagline!
