You seem to agree with the Left. They say Giuliani is a budding fascist. If you read Leftist blogs, they say similar things to "respect for our constituional rights would never be recovered." The Leftists say that if he's elected he will become a dictator. I remember them saying the same things about Ronald Reagan. They were wrong about him and they're wrong about Giuliani. I lived for 8 years with Giuliani as my Mayor. Never did I see him as a fascist. The DemonRats and Radical Leftists did. His initiatives helped to clean up this city. People felt safe to visit and do business here. Times Square was transformed from a dangerous human cesspool into a clean, safe and vital area. I never feared him and I have no reason to fear him now. I don't support Giuliani for President. I don't agree with his views on abortion, guns and many other things. At the present time, I support no one. I'm certain of one thing. He is no fascist.
This is a pathetic defense. The left hates everyone to the right of them, no matter how small the substantive differences really are.
He is no fascist.
The hell he's not. Virtually all of his policies reflect the kind of state control specifically exerted by Italian fascists in the 1930s, and were sold with similar justification, principally public safety and order.
Ronald Reagan believed in people possessing the ability to defend themselves. Giuliani wants the police to have that exclusive power while disarming the citizenry, nor is he shy about trampling the Constitution to get there. The two are miles apart.
N.A.R.A.L. had Rudy as their speaker at their "Champions of Choice" Lunch. They love him.
