Let me just say that I’m making a judgement call on Rudy from a long ways away here in California. From what I have seen of Rudy, I don’t dislike the guy. Do I like all of his political stances? Not really. I do think he handled 09/11 well, but other than that I’m not a big fan of him politically.
I can’t vote for him, and I do see some of the same problems with Rudy that I do with Arnold. I don’t want to see him become the President. I’ve had enough of the down sides of voting for RINOs. Rudy is a RINO IMO. I won’t be voting for him.
When I say I like him, I like a lot of people. I sure don’t agree with his stances regarding abortion. I think his stance on that has been despicable. I guess I shouldn’t really like the guy, but I don’t operate that way.
Ted Kennedy I don’t like. Pelosi, Ried, Murtha, Sheehan, I don’t like. These folks are the ilk of the earth. Rudy is just a misguided fool on conservative issues, and I couldn’t vote for him period. I don’t see him as anti-American by any means, and so he resides in a different category then the people I mentioned above.
Our terrorist enemies have, IMHO, a three pointed attack on the West. They argue that it is legitimate to indiscriminately attack civilians, and that is a moral abomination. They say that Islam has a right to politically dominate the earth, and to suppress or kill those who will not ‘submit’, and that is a moral abomination. The third argument is that the West is totally corrupt and decadent. If the greatest power on earth makes it politically impossible to oppose the American Holocaust, then I think that the argument about moral decadence would be proved, and would lead to our defeat in the War on Terror.
If Gillian became President, only Republican politicians who are morally courageous would dare to remain pro-life, and the GOP would never nominate a pro-life candidate again. I do not believe that there are very many congressmen with that amount of moral courage. In such a case it would be necessary to sweep the Republicans into the trash heap of history, so that a truly conservative party could emerge, and again make the United States deserving to be saved. So that if the Republicans nominate Rudy, it is better to kill the party sooner rather than later.
As far as what will I do if Rudy is the nominee, that would depend on the existence of a creditable third party. If there is one, I will support it. If not it would depend on how close the contest is in Florida. If it is close, I will privately vote for Hillary, as the most effective way to destroy the GOP. If it isn’t close, I will write in ‘RONALD W. REAGAN’, and urge everyone else to do the same!
