Roe is still there so why should I think that any Republican will bring it down?
I live in New York State and it is run by power hungry whores. Republican and Democrat. They are all corrupt and everyone else in the USA should not vote for any politician from New York State. They are all bought and paid for by New York City cronies. I hope the rest of the country does not vote for the New York City liberals, Rudy or Hillary.
“If a candidate can’t respect the life of a little baby, how is he supposed to respect ours?” Fr. Frank Pavone,
It’s not what I’m looking for.
I’m looking for a total rejection of the evil that has overtaken both political parties. And there is precedence. I believe the Republican party itself was the product of such circumstances. When the culture of evil, death and slavery completely dominates both of our major political parties, then they both must be soundly rejected and defeated. If there are any good men remaining in either party, they must denounce the evil. We need a new birth of freedom in America. It must come from within.
“All that is necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men do nothing.”
A noble but dangerous idea. Right now it looks like it will most likely be Hillary v. Giuliani in 2008 and, if so, the Conservative movement in the United States risks tearing itself apart.
We can be reasonably certain that Democrats will vote as a solid block. We can also be reasonably certain that a large percentage of independents and even ‘moderate’ republicans will vote against whoever the Repubs nominate, simply as a repudiation of the Bush administration. It’s looking more and more certain that whoever the Dems nominate will take the White House.
If we conservatives are going to hope to remain in a position where we will have any chance of stopping the liberal agenda, it’s going to require us to act as a group, not tear ourselves apart over our candidate.
I’m not saying that people should vote against their conscience, however, if the issue of abortion does cause the right-wing to split into two parties, one of them occupying the far-right and the other the center-right, the almost certain outcome is both parties being whoppingly defeated by the single left-of-center party.
If the schism were to get severe enough, the Democrats could be looking at a solid eight years of dominating both the executive and the legislative. Imagine how entrenched they could become in that time?
Don’t vote Giuliani if abortion is a make-or-break issue for you. But don’t fool yourself into thinking that making a moral stand on this issue will definitely result in positive change for the conservative movement.
Good observation. Roe is something like a political cicada that is shaken out of the trees every 4 years as 'boob bait for the bubbas'.
What will destroy the country is Rudy destroying the Republican party. If Giuliani is nominated the party will become a permanent minority. Before the rise of the Evangelical right, which majors on the social issues, the Republicans were a Congressional minority for 40 years. Without their votes we would be talking about Presidents Gore and Kerry. So before you pull the lever for Giuliani remember it is the Giuliani supporters that will bring defeat to the Republican party for a long, long time. Giuliani is the only Republican candidate that would signal a retreat from long held conservative principles with regard to the social issues and the second amendment.
Right. Don't cut and run from life.
” Either of these two power hungry liberal whores would lie, steal, cheat and sell their souls to take the White House.”
Rudy and Hillary are the most power hungry candidates I have ever seen, and yes they are evil!
Why? For FReepers sake, he's a pro-abortion New York liberal. He doesn't have a problem with killing. Why would have have a problem with lying?
If Giuliani picks a pro-life running mate, that gives him the edge. Of course, are there any left? Maybe Tommy Thompson. Or perhaps Engler. Maybe Santorum. Possibly Cornyn, although you don’t want to lure him away from the Senate.
No way. The abortionist Giuliani must be soundly rejected or the Republican party is dead. Period.
Thanks for the remarks. Reagan wasn’t perfect, but he followed his head and it lead him in some great directions over all. I believe he changed his stance on issues as he learned or thought more about them. He had fortitude, and real character. He was worthy of respect.
You take care.
How else can we destroy the party. First Bush and the last Republican Congress helped define the party as the party of big spenders. That should alienate the fiscal conservatives. Next we nominate an anti-gun, abortionist, gay rights, cross dresser to alienate the social conservatives. In the future, to finish to destruction of the party we have to nominate someone that is anti-military - any thoughts?
Yeah. No more.
