Oh, is that what you think you accomplish? It's not. Unless the mission of this website is a suicide one. What you accomplish is to disgust a lot of decent people, many Freepers, and any lurkers who are curious about Conservatives and Republicans. You justify every criticism of us. You do nothing good. And you failed to take exception to my belief that you would prefer a Democrat to Giuliani as the next President. Which makes you a fool- under the very best observation.

I didn't see your stupid belief because I only skim the garbage that you post. All I see is "blah blah blah conservatism is bad. blah blah blah liberal candidate is good. blah blah blah less conservatism, more liberalism blah blah blah."

Criticism of conservatives? I remember when FReepers would counter the liberal line at every turn. Now I hear people like you and the other Rudytards parroting the very same liberal lines, mantras, and arguments about conservatives that the liberals have always used. "You conservatives are too angry, implacable, intolerant, bigoted, unwilling to compromise, fanatical, overzealous, self-righteous, holier-than-thou, etc, etc, blah, blah, blah conservatism bad, liberalism good."

The very fact that you're here stating that conservatism is a failed set of values and that more liberalism is better - to water down conservatism with a bunch of liberal Koolaid - means that you're on the wrong website. Whether you've always held these liberal views or that you've rationalized them and adopted them for the sake of political expediency is irrelevant. The fact of the matter is that you're trying to convince FReepers to adopt a more liberal mindset and become more tolerant of failed liberal values. More liberalism...less conservatism. And you're doing it for just one stupid liberal candidate. Giuliani is NOT the savior of anything except for liberal, Rockefeller republicanism that was rejected decades ago by Reagan Republicanism. And there's no reason that FReepers should have ANYTHING to do with the liberal garbage you and people like you are trying to sell here.

Uhmm...step away from the broad brush...

I am part of the “anti-Rudy crowd” and I do not think these will hurt him. I think they will show one of his few positive traits - a sense of humor.

Maybe it is you who has bad judgment?

“Conservatives can’t get a joke. Conservatives are stupid and humorless prigs.”

Well, well, well. You’ve pretty much revealed yourself for who you are with that comment. And yet, here you are, a liberal, playing among us stupid, humorless prigs. Life must be pretty boring for you liberals to have to spend your time dissing conservatives here. Why don’t you go hang out with your intelligent, humorous liberal friends over at DU? It seems you have a lot more in common with them.

These radicals are only a small minority of the Republican party.

The website you're posting on is part of your so-called "minority" too.

Why can't you guys just start up a RudyRepublic.com website. We're CONSERVATIVES here. Do you even know what conservative means? Are you even allowed to use the computer? ROFL

“......My biggest concern about these cross-dressing episodes is that they — in combination with other aspects of his personal life — paint a picture of a person with some pretty serious psychological baggage.......”

No, J. Edger Hoover had serious psychological baggage. Rudy has a sense of humor and is very secure in his manhood.

Go Rudy!

In George Orwell’s “1984” folks got their aggressions out with “2 minutes of hate” With some of the RudyHaters....I wonder if some of them even have a life it seems hating Rudy is all they have.

That is precisely the same language that liberals used to condemn FReepers for attacking Bill Clinton. You've been rationalizing your support of the most liberal Republican presidential candidate for so long that you've morphed into a liberal and are parroting their thoughts and statements.

“What you accomplish is to disgust a lot of decent people, many Freepers, and any lurkers who are curious about Conservatives and Republicans.”

It’s amazing that you’ve been a member of FR for a long time and yet you seem to know very little about it’s mission. Maybe this will help...
____________________________________________________________________________
I’ve already stated that FR will probably become even more conservative than it already is, through attrition if nothing else. Besides continuing to champion the defense of America, FR just might become the “Conservative Conscience of the Republican Party,” ie, we may become a real thorn in the side of moderate/liberal Republicanism. Someone has to try defend the party from completely tossing out traditional American conservatism. Might as well be us.

How many times must I say FR is a conservative site? We do not support abortionism, homosexualism, feminisim, environmentalism, gun control, liberalism, socialism, etc, etc, etc. When I say I suspect we will become even more conservative than we already are, possibly via attrition if nothing else, what do you think I’m referring to? When FR starts pushing hard and I mean hard against abortion, gay marriage, homosexual education forced on our school children, pandering to illegal aliens, gun control, McCaine-Feingold type usurpation, global warming, etc, etc, even if supported or advanced by the GOP, then I fully suspect certain types of moderate/liberal Republican supporters are probably going to be a little uncomfortable here. We will be fighting for traditional American conservatism no matter who we have to fight against and I’m afraid that’s going to piss off some folks.

And I’ll borrow a slogan used by the NFRA that I realy like:

“We are the ‘Republican’ Wing of the Republcan Party!”

~Jim Robinson~

Now, who’s disgusting who?

I’ll pass on the guy in the weird underwear. Mormons are secretive and cultish and their rites in the Temple to ordain their “priests” borders on the occult. Give me a guy whose life is an open book.

Slick Willy's life is an open book. Maybe the one bent left can do a roadshow with the gun grabber in a skirt who claims a rightward tilt.

"A political party cannot be all things to all people. It must represent certain fundamental beliefs which must not be compromised to political expediency, or simply to swell its numbers.

I do not believe I have proposed anything that is contrary to what has been considered Republican principle. It is at the same time the very basis of conservatism. It is time to reassert that principle and raise it to full view. And if there are those who cannot subscribe to these principles, then let them go their way."

-- Ronald Reagan, March 1, 1975

“.....We’re CONSERVATIVES here. Do you even know what conservative means? Are you even allowed to use the computer? ROFL.....”

I’m a pro-life, 2nd Amendment conservative who believes that ex-cons who have committed violent crimes SHOULD NOT have their guns rights restored, and I’m a conservative who believes that Marriage is for one man and one woman but gay taxpaying citizens also should be protected with equal rights under the law in the form of civil unions. You see, Conservative Republicans come in all forms. Some are more tolerant of our fellow human beings than others. I think Jesus would approve.

OK, you say you are a conservative, let’s pretend for a moment that’s true. Now answer this, why does a conservative vote for a liberal?

.....goofball LIBERALS like Kerry in the "bunny suit", Dukakis with the oversized helmet on in the tank turret, and RINO-rudy in his various cross-dressing outfits that have the bad political judgement......

When Kerik gets indicted, this pic of Rooty with his buddy, former bodyguard, driver, mobbed-up Police Commissioner, and flopola Homeland/Sec will get a lot of play:

Buddies forever.

That picture of Rooty with Kerik will remind everyone how much he likes to hug and kiss other men.

Gee, That will really go over well in the heartland./sarc.

What in the hell was that???

Does Rudy dress in drag a lot?

I honestly thought it was a one time SNL thing that everybody is all up-in-arms about.

You are right Liz. Rudy has been given a pass so far. The media is waiting for the “stoopid Repulicans” to cast their vote for a liberal Rudy.

After that, they know its a sure shoot for Hillary.

Don’t settle for a liberal. It will be the undoing of the Republican Party.
