While I haven't let Hunter supporters reflect on the man himself, I've had the same experience on Thompson threads. Even to the point of a Hunter supporter attacking my faith!
Do you realize that a good portion of Thompson supporters also support Hunter?? The attack tactic didn't turn me to Ron Paul either.
Well, isn't that special?
>I found out that Bracewell and Giuliani, Rudy’s law firm head-quartered here in Houston, TX – is legal counsel for Fox News. Yes, you read that right, Fox News is Giuliani’s client.
>Well, isn’t that special?
Yeah, it is. It’s a darn shame — use to be that Fox was the one shining beacon in the MSM — now it is clear that none of them are to be trusted. The fourth estate as we once knew it is gone — either for money or for currying favor with socialist, power-grabbing dirtballs. Or (usually) both.
Thank God for the internet and talk radio. That’s all I have to say. We are now the monks in the New Dark Ages keeping truth alive.
“Rush implies that Rudy and Romney are liberals”
BWAAAAAAAAAAHAAAAAAAAAAAHAAAAAAAA
((((RUSH IS RIGHT))))
Nice try but Rush specifically mentions CONSERVATIVE journalists overlooking lack of genuine conservatism in candidates from the northeast.
Since candidates is plural, he is obviously talking about more than one and since no conservative is claiming that Hillary is a conservative, he can only be talking about the two northeast Republican -- that would be Rudy and Romney.
THAT's what he meant by "two liberals" in the race.
WRONG! Rush specifically mentions CONSERVATIVE journalists overlooking lack of genuine conservatism in candidates from the northeast.
Since candidates is plural, he is obviously talking about more than one and since no conservative is claiming that Hillary is a conservative, he can only be talking about the two northeast Republican -- that would be Rudy and Romney.
or edit the title!

I realize that this does not fit your agenda, but this is the ONLY way to interpret what Rush said. Had he said ONE northeast candidate, we could argue which one, but he clearly spoke of more than one and since there are only two he must mean both.
As far as changing the title, FR allows parenthetical comments and these are accurate.
Hunter not physically attractive? Not that it should matter, but he’s second only to Mitt Romney in the looks dept. when compared with the other presidential candidates. Are you telling us that Rudy, Thompson and McCain are more attractive? Yikes!
But as far as being “bland”, I agree that he is somewhat tame in his demeanor. I guess he’s a man of few words. But his actions and accomplishments are significant, and I am praying for breakthrough in his poll standings.
I am really sorry to hear that. It is a pity things have come to that.
From what I've read the past couple days, it looks that I was lucky to not have been around the past few months.
I noticed several years ago that on days when Rush is on vacation Hannity seems lost on his show unless there was "obvious" news to talk about.
“I tried to sign up to volunteer and put up a sign, but apparently that website isn’t Mac friendly. (sad sigh)
You know SOME Mac users are conservative!!!!”
Maybe our friend Paperdoll could help you volunteer without using a computer. :)
He is assuming nothing of the sort. Rush was clearly talking about how CONSERVATIVE journalists were willing to over look "genuine conservatism" of northeastern candidates.
The ONLY logical conclusion is that Rush was talking about Rudy AND Romney (because the word candidates is plural). Now, you could try to say that Rush mispoke and meant to say candidate in the singular form, in which case we could debate whether he meant Rudy or Romney. However, there is NO WAY to reach the conclusion that he was talking about Hillary since conservative journalists aren't giving her a pass and nobody is referring to her as a conservative.
If you have a problem with the fact that Rush said Romney isn't a genuine conservative you should take it up with Rush, but don't blame us for accurately interpreting what he was saying.
“Just dashed off a LTTE to my local rag.”
WTG!!
If every FReeper who supports Hunter writes an editor’s letter, we can cover a lot of territory in our great country. I usually include www.gohunter08.com for readers to get more info. and DONATE.
Also, call a talk show. :)
I'd follow up on this, but I'll be away for a few days. Have at it, freepers.
Whaaaaat? He has never disclosed this.
Geez, unbelievable.
Giuliani's Firm Lobbied GovernmentAnd now I gotta go! Happy Thanksgiving, everyone!

WASHINGTON — Energy companies, FBI agents, a media tycoon and even a candlemaker: Rudy Giuliani's firm has lobbied for them all and dozens more in Washington, opening the door to a wide range of potential conflicts of interest should he become president.
If Giuliani were elected, his administration would be on the receiving end of regulatory requests, contract bids and policy proposals by the same clients of his Houston firm, Bracewell & Giuliani, that have contributed toward his personal net worth of millions of dollars.
(snip)
Giuliani's law and lobbying clients have included Saudi Arabia, Rupert Murdoch's News Corp., and chewing tobacco maker UST Inc.
Yep, there was an article in the Washington Post in May 2007 about this possible conflict of interest.
Looks like we know how and why Fox is in the tank for the liberal Rooty.
I heard that conversation I am a Rush subscriber and he has never said that about Mitt in any time I heard him!
