President Giuliani in 2008! Law and Order. Solid Judges. Free Markets. Killing Terrorists.

If his past is any indication, we will have:

Law and Order... As long as that doesn't include immigration law, laws supporting the Second Amendment or any other laws Rudy personally doesn't like.

Solid Judges ... As long as the judges are liberals like he appointed in NY.

Free markets... Does this mean rent control for the whole Country?

Killing terrorists... He hasn't been involved in this or any other military activity in the past. He actively avoided the draft. But hey, he sure sounds tough.

Sorry, you are asking any conservative to swallow too much.

One, Rudy's economic policies are generally good. Rudy is an opponent of Hillarycare, is for school choice, cut taxes 23 times, and removed NYC's corrupt affirmative action program for businesses, among other things. I agree with you that rent control sucks, but in New York City, opposing it means losing the votes of elderly people and others dependent on it. There is a limit to how conservative you can be and still get things done, especially in New York City.

On war, certainly you know that ideas matter. If the extent of military service mattered, we would blindly support Wes Clark, who was wounded in 'Nam and became Supreme Commander of NATO. Understanding what Revolutionary Islam is about is especially important for the future of our country, and I'm surprised you don't take that as seriously as the obnoxious rent control policy.

On social matters, again, Giuliani has been fighting in the trenches, cleaning up the streets over the objections of clowns like Sharpton, standing up to anti-Christian publically funded art, cracking down on pornographers and prostitutes and so forth. If Rudy can accomplish this much in the most liberal city in the country, I'm willing to listen to his agenda for America's future.

Did you vote for Kerry?
