They are so blind that they can't even see that every time they call us "one-issue voters" they are just proving that they are totally out of touch with reality. They are twisting and contorting to defend Rudy no matter what the topic.
I'm in total disbelief that I'm on a thread on FR and "so called conservatives" are insinuating that Bush was a draft dodger or that his service to our country wasn't honorable. And, others are telling us that we should just not even take in to account a candidate's honorable military record or the circumstances of their non-military record. It's just freaking insane.
They are not being blind. They are, IMO, being deliberately obtuse by taking each of Rudy's liberal positions and acting like it's the only flaw in Rudy's GOP demeanor. It's completely dishonest.
And I figured it would be a matter of time before they turned on Bush and Rudy turns on the Iraq War. He's already positioning himself for that turn. He and his cult of personality seem to have no core values - just a fawning pursuit of power. And that, quite frankly, is Rudy's most liberal trait - the lust for power for the sake of power and his own ego.
You didn't quite just join yesterday, but I'll explain. FR is an open forum. Anyone can join and promote anything they like. Heck, they can even pretend to support things they don't like, just to cause an adverse, and divisive, reaction.
Proof should be in action, but here action is unprovable. Here, our words must speak for us and we must consider our own goals when we write them. Sometimes our rants can be seen as embarrassment, and even quoted other places solely for the embarrassing intent. We should seek to coalesce, not divide, but that cow has already left the barn. We are fully infiltrated with those who want nothing but division. I say pay attention to the words which inspire and coalesce and promote our points of view and not fall to the temptation of illogical ranting, division and ridicule of our points of view.
