WARNING! APPROACHING EXPLODING HEAD ZONE-PROCEED WITH EXTREME CAUTION
Posted on 03/08/2007 5:50:47 PM PST by areafiftyone
Rep. Peter King (R-NY), former Chairman of the House Homeland Security Committee, has endorsed former Mayor Rudy Giuliani for President in 2008, according to the New York Daily News.
This is newsworthy because King co-chaired Sen. John McCain's New York campaign in 2000.
FROM THE NY DAILY NEWS:
Rudy Giuliani has wooed Rep. Peter King away from Sen. John McCain. King co-chaired McCain's New York campaign in the 2000 White House race, but the Long Island congressman says he'll now be lining up other House members for Giuliani. The ranking Republican on the Homeland Security Committee tells us he thinks Giuliani is "best qualified to fight terrorism." Giuliani and King got to know each other while serving as summer legal interns. "We'd both ride the Long Island Rail Road into Manhattan," recalls King. "Last Friday, we took Amtrak down to D.C. for a conservative conference. I said to myself, 'Forty years later, and I'm still riding the train with Rudy."

It's useless trying to convince them, Mom...one night I went on for hours debating how my carrying a gun in my purse on the 6 train would not stop a terrorist from blowing up the NYC subway system. (Beside the fact that the idea of me carrying a gun anywhere leaves me hysterically laughing.)
...yeah, they called Bill Bennett a RINO when he scolded Ann....when Bennett and King are labeled RINO's, I know some fine folk have escaped the farm.....
Where you are aware of it or not, the Log Cabin Republicans were invited and attended CPAC! Look like all the candidates were courting the Log Cabin Republicans as well as everyone else there.
You and me both on carrying a gun. I view my carrying a gun the same way!
Log Cabin's are NOT republicans. They are funded with the Rainbow Network monies David Mixner set up.
Of Course they were at CPAC. Soros took care of that!

George Soros Infiltrates Conservative Movement
Guess that makes President Bush a member as well as he met with the Log Cabin Republicans.
The Dems will go after him with everything they've got in 2008. Mejias was a weak candidate, but that's a very dangerous district for any Republican these days. Long Island is not a healthy place to be. He'll be gone after 2010, assuming the Dems take the Senate, given pending redistricting.
Before you post check your facts.
Peter King is my congressman, representing eastern Nassau County, not even close to Queens.
Met with is not the same as seeking endorsement or being a member of.
I'm curious....that link you posted talked about a speaker for "Drug Free America"....I did not see Log Cabin Repubs on the text....didn't want to go thru all the posts... Where are the LCR's in that mess?
That was about CPAC.
Gotcha....I read it as some speaker from the Drug Free America Foundation bowed out because of the link to Soros. Didn't take it as CPAC had a link
It was in response to this post:

But Rudy still has better legs!!!
....I took your post #68 to mean the Log Cabin Repubs were bought off by Soros....my error....
