Dear MadIvan,
"Getting rid of abortion is going to require having appropriate justices in the Supreme Court to overturn Roe vs. Wade, a promise which Rudy has made,..."
Sorry, but that's a lie, MadIvan.
Mr. Giuliani didn't promise justices who would overturn Roe.
He promised "strict constructionists."
In that he believes that abortion is a woman's constitutional right, and that Roe was rightly decided, the most reasonable interpretation of "strict constructionist" for Mr. Giuliani is "someone who would uphold Roe."
If Mr. Giuliani wishes to explicitly state the contrary, he is welcome to do so.
Otherwise, a vote for Mr. Giuliani is a vote to uphold Roe.

Overturning Roe v. Wade is necessary, but it will not stop a single abortion.
"Getting rid of abortion" will require legislation in all 50 states, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico and the territories - and without a massive and unprecedented change in public opinion, it will never happen.
Rudy is not just "pro-abortion." Rudy is joined at the hip to the most radical pro-abortion elements---NARAL, Planned Parenthood, and the rest of the abortion-on-demand-with-the-govt-picking-up-the-tab crowd.
Giuliani used his Mayoral term to advance abortion EVEN THOUGH, AS MAYOR, HE HAD NO LEGISLATIVE OR OFFICIAL MANDATE TO DO DO SO.
From the FEC database: 04/24/1999 Donations
NEW YORK STATE NARAL INC WOMEN'S HEALTH PAC
NARAL donated exclusively to Democrat candidates with one exception----Rudy Giuliani. Giuliani accepted $1,000 from NARAL in 1999. NARAL gave $250 to Hillary Rodham Clinton. NARAL gave $1000---4 times as much-----to pro-abortion Giuliani.
Clearly, NARAL trusted Rudy's pro-abortion credentials, and Rudy's willingness to advance NARAL's radical abortion-on-demand agenda, NARAL Honored Mayor Rudy for his efforts---he was the honored guest speaker and made The Opening Remarks at NARAL's "Champions of Choice" Luncheon. He has also publicly praised eugenecist Margaret Sanger (PP founder)
In a CNN interview, Giuliani indicated he does not support even a modest ban on the gruesome partial-birth abortion procedure saying, "No, I have not supported that, and I don't see my position on that changing." Giuliani also indicated he would have upheld President Clinton's veto of the partial-birth abortion ban. Mayor Rudy told Phil Donahue he'd give his daughter the money for an abortion (to get rid of his own grandchild).
==================================================
The pro-abort savages have commenced the killing of the innocent----who knows where it will end, with Rudy at the levers of government, and NARAL whispering in his ear?
It's worthwhile to note that pro-lifers are merely treating Rudy the way he's treated unborn children-------as a disposable nuisance.
He said would appoint judges in the mould of Scalia and Alito, who do not believe in the constitutionality of Roe vs. Wade. Ergo, he would appoint appropriate justices. Your suspicion of his motives is one thing - calling him a liar is quite another.
