If anyone was hurt by my telling the truth about the results of letting Hillary in the White House, so be it.

There have been many 'rocks' thrown on this thread.

None by me.

“rooty tooty club”

I like that. After this day we call “the other sites”, Rooty Tooty Clubs. Now we need a logo and theme song.

This country needs a leader to focus on what matters – our security, pride, and prosperity.

Queers fornicating, unborn babies being murdered and all you think about is yourself. Your a weak, weak person.

Heroic is the wrong word. Too many acts are considered heroic today that I really don’t consider heroic. I apologize for using that word. I admire his leadership during and after 9-11. His words and actions during that attack meant something to me - his speeches were uplifting and filled with pride and a no surrender attitude that seems to be lost almost 7 years later. I admire what he did for NYC as Mayor: cleaned it up quite a bit, more cops, backed the cops when it’s so easy to trash a few that make a bad name for the majority in uniform, and was partly responsible for turning the city around economically too, at least in my opinion.

I don’t agree with his stand on abortion as I’m as pro-life as one can get - I don’t think there’s any reason to murder an innocent baby, and abortion is murder in my mind and heart. I voted once for a candidate that didn’t share my views on abortion (Christie Whitman) - the Dem candidate also didn’t share my views so I voted for the fiscal conservative republican candidate.

I don’t know enough about any of the current republican presidential prospects to make any decision but I do know that I will vote republican unless a dem nominee is pro-life, anti-gun control, pro military/supportive of our troops and our current involvement in Iraq, and not a socialist when it comes to healthcare and our economy, or a secular-progressive, etc. - in other words, I’ll vote for whatever candidate is the most conservative but not sure about the republican primary yet. I like some things about Rudy, some things about McCain, and I don’t know enough about any of the other prospects yet. I know I don’t like anything at all about Hillary, Obama, or Edwards. Not a thing. And I didn’t hate Bill Clinton, I didn’t like him but I didn’t dislike everything about him. Any of them (Hillary, Obama, Edwards) winning P or VP is something that really frightens me. Gore frightens me. Kerry frightens me. More than the other 3. I liked former PA Gov. Casey - he was pro life and the dem party trashed him. He was a dem but I liked him as Gov of my former state.

I have no idea who I’ll vote for in the repub primary (or who will be running by then, it’s too early for me). I need to read/hear/see more about them. I do know that I will support/vote for whomever is against the 5 dems I mentioned. I’ll never vote for someone running 3rd party because it only takes votes away from the 2 party candidates - we’re a 2 party government whether I like it or not - and a 3rd party candidate doesn’t have a chance to win, imo, yet. I wish that weren’t the case but I also wish I were a multi-millionaire so my wishing doesn’t mean much.

My ideal candidate is pro life, anti-death penalty, anti-gun control, anti-universal healthcare, pro military/pro troops, pro family, anti-nanny state, anti welfare (the current system), anti-Union, anti-homo agenda, anti illegal immigration, etc., someone who doesn’t give a damn about what the rest of the world thinks about Americans because my personal view is the world is jealous of our freedoms and economic success and I have little patience with this whole global crap.

I think our major problem is the media and hollywood - they control the show. And we continually allow them to control it. They’re liberal/leftist, anti capitalist as long as it doesn’t impact their income or way of life. Elitist mentality to the extreme. IMO.

I’m still reading this thread but have to stop and say how wrong you are about Howlin. Howlin supports Fred Thompson, not Giuliani. And so it goes on FR. I tell ya, this is getting downright embarrassing for FR. Can you imagine what the lurkers are thinking as they read through this thread? FR is starting to look like a clan of cannibals. Republicans aren’t going to stand a snowball’s chance in hell of winning in 2008 if we don’t stop eating our own.

"Why are you so concerned about my tagline?"

I'm concerned about you becoming yet another anti-freeper.

“Republicans” are not eating our own. We’re pretty solidly behind Guiliani at this point.

Wingnuts, on the other hand, excel at cannibalism. Fortunately, they represent a tiny, tiny minority within a minority.

you haven't even been IN this thread, but your first (ahem) 'contribution' is to accuse me of being an ass-kisser.

It's not quantity that matters, it's quality.

And from where I'm sitting, the poster.........

nailed it.

Sorry. Got it.

I don’t know if you want to add to your anti-Giuliani list that he hired 6 $100K+ bodyguards using public money to drive his mistress to the beauty parlor.

MadIvan, who was a very good and thoughtful Freeper started that other site....which BTW is too confusing for me to navigate.

I found it very oddly laid out. I couldn't figure out how to look at the latest stuff even with a "latest" button, and I'd search for names and not find them only to see them if I just went into a few discussions. I did better when people gave me direct links. But it isn't the best organized structure. Of course, I found the DU site was horribly laid out as well, but all of them think they have it great and FR is horrible, while I love FR. I think FR is better for people with brains who can remember what they read for more than 5 minutes so they don't need such visual "linkage" in the comments.
