You don't agree that supporting a ro-abortion candidate is supporting abortion? Hmmmm.
You could have supported Hitler with that lack of conscience! You keep on like Rudy is God's gift, and still manage to hold your nose at every new revelation, and think that everything is still OK. When do you plan to see the light? How long after it's too late will you wake up to the fact this guy is BAD!
Just stop it man, you are going way over the board.
You just don't get it do you? The more you act like an extremist the more people are turned off by you and your kind.
By those two nasty comments you made to me you have PROVEN to me that it is not RUDY who is bad it is YOU who is BAD!
"You could have supported Hitler with that lack of conscience!"
Hitler outlawed abortion on paper (of course the ban only applied to the Aryan women). Osama bin Laden would outlaw abortion without waiting for the Supreme Court to overturn Roe v. Wade, but that doesn't mean that freepers should vote for bin Laden for president.
I would like to remind everyone involved in (yet another) debate about Rudy's qualifications, that the primaries haven't even started yet!!!
Why are we being "told" to support Rudy during a period (the Primaries, or of course, BEFORE the primaries) when we are supposed to be choosing the MOST conservative candidate?
The greatest argument for Rudy that everyone slings around is his "electability". Is that really what the primaries are for? To select a candidate based on how well he (or she) appeals to the OTHER side? Granted I suppose that could be ONE reason, but is it the ONLY reason?
Here's a notion to consider: The only reason Rudy is riding so high now is because most are under the (MISTAKEN) impression that no one else could win. It's mob mentality plain and simple, with everyone following along because no one wants to loose the "team player" label.
If everyone who is truly conservative would act on their conservatism, NOW, and support a truly conservative candidate like Hunter, or even Gingrich, then we wouldn't be having this conversation. This isn't a lecture about "voting your conscience" or "the GOP has failed us". The time is NOW, to get off our behinds, and support a candidate IN the GOP, and MAKE the GOP work for us. That way we won't HAVE to be left with the dreadful choice of "Guiliani or Hillary" November 2008.
Or don't we here, on FR, TRULY believe that the majority of this country is conservative? Has that been something we've said just to make ourselves feel better? If not, then let's ACT like it's the TRUTH and quit worrying about "electability".
