I’ve asked that you not ping me; a request you have ignored to date. I’ll ask again - take me off your ping list.

Why are people who call themselves conservatives supporting this liberal?

Maybe they ain't as conservative as they claim to be.

You may be correct about all of it. But since its a “I can’t recall” type thing, I won’t speculate.

Kerik is the least of his problems right now, though the dems are doing their research I’m sure in case he gets the nod.

“There were here illegaly but did not commit a crime.” lol.

Immigration and Illegal Immigration
Giuliani was criticized for embracing illegal immigrants.[44] Giuliani continued a policy of preventing city employees from contacting the Immigration and Naturalization Service about immigration violations, on the grounds that illegal aliens must be able to take actions such as to send their children to school, or report crime and violations without fear of deportation. He ordered city attorneys to defend this policy in federal court. The court ruled that New York City’s sanctuary laws were illegal. After the City of New York lost an appeal to the United States Supreme Court, Giuliani
vowed to ignore the law.[45] Giuliani also expressed doubt that the federal government can completely stop illegal immigration.[46] In 1996, Giuliani said, “I believe the anti-immigration movement in America is one of our most serious public problems”. In 2000, Giuliani said of New York City, “Immigration is a very positive force for the City of New York. Immigration is the key to the city’s success. Both historically and to this very day.”[47]

Michelle Malkin revealed, that under Giuliani, New York was an illegal alien sanctuary and that Rooty actually sued the federal government in an effort to keep New York City employees from having to cooperate with the INS:

“When Congress enacted immigration reform laws that forbade local governments from barring employees from cooperating with the INS, Mayor Rudy Giuliani filed suit against the feds in 1997.”

” He was rebuffed by two lower courts, which ruled that the sanctuary order amounted to special treatment for illegal aliens and were nothing more than an unlawful effort to flaunt federal enforcement efforts against illegal aliens.”

“In January 2000, the Supreme Court rejected his appeal, but Giuliani vowed to ignore the law.”

On the O’Reilly Factor 8/06, Giuliani argued for a “practical approach” to immigration and cited his efforts as Mayor of New York City to “regularize” illegal immigrants by providing them with access to city services like public education to “make their lives reasonable.”

Rooty’s overall position on immigration is essentially indistinguishable from the way that Nancy Pelosi and Company deal with illegal immigration. The way Rudy Giuliani tackles the illegal issue is liberal to the core.

Rooty might even be planning blanket presidential pardons for illegals sneaking across their border (paying for their passage by working for drug lords); using fraudulent documents to collect US government freebies; and falsified SS numbers to loot the US Social Security system.

I guess reading my entire tag line is beyond your reading comprehension capabilities.

And I see you are reduced to this kind of banal blather when you can't address the fact that Rudy freely allied himself with liberals and liberal organizations to counter federal efforts to combat illegal immigration.

But we've come to expect that from you. Maybe you should throw in an attack on Reagan's legacy for good measure, since this involves illegal immigration. Anything but address the actual topic of the post, namely Rudy's liberalism.

I can't recall was the classic Clintonian dodge. I'm sorry, but I think I'd remember if I was briefed that the guy I wanted for Police Commish might have mob ties. That would be like Bush not recalling a briefing that his choice for Homeland Security might have al Qaeda ties.

I’ll let you lead on that one. Sounds fishy, but unless a fish is produced, I’ll stick with his own proven liberalism. Maybe you’ll be the one to land the lunker.

It’s not exactly a lisp, its a sort van-shustereny “shuffering shuccatash” thing.
