PRO-LIFE
I am 100% PRO-LIFE and completely ANTI-ABORTION.
It is a travesty that approximately 52 Million unborn American Citizens have been murdered in our country under the "Roe v. Wade" doctrine propounded by Supreme Court "Justice" Harry Blackmun. I personally pray that this MONSTER will burn in Satan's ovens for eternity.
I believe that the ONLY excuse for abortion is a situation where the mother's LIFE (ie., IMMEDIATE PHYSICAL SURVIVAL) is threatened by the fetus. (And that means no "Mental-Health" exceptions, either).
Therefore I am against all funding for abortion services, all transportation across state lines for this abomination, all provision of abortion to underage children, all abortion without maternal ultrasound, all abortion without "spousal" or parental notification; and I am against abortion for Rape or Incest. I am against all "morning-after" pills and IUDs (which cause early abortion).
In cases of rape or incest, I would encourage the mother to delay all action for an extended time-period while undergoing mental health counseling and targeting an adoption outcome. In the face of a valid psychiatric opinion that such a mother would be severely mentally harmed by carrying the pregnancy to full-term, I would authorize early induced, LIVE-BIRTH delivery (as late as possible) with intensive neonatal salvage-care for the pre-term fetus. (And let's have the Rapist or Incestuous family member pay that bill).
BUT NO ABORTION WOULD BE PERMITTED in "My America" except for "Immediate threat to life of mother." (And God bless the mothers I've known who declined even that termination to take a chance on a double victory!)

P.S. NO EUTHANASIA EITHER!
Moderates and libs will vote for Crist, and the good doc will not be a Senator. Rubio is your only option at theis point. If this Dr had done anything up until a month before the election, it could be different, but it is not. This guy is out Fred Thompsoning Fred Thompson, and that gave us McCain.

Wow. Marco Rubio blocked AZ-like bills when he was the LEADER in the FL House. Marcos Mel Martinez Montana.
“What have the Diaz brothers ever done for us?”

Can you find anything to support Rubio being pro-La Raza?
Thanks Dave...I didn’t even know about this candidate.
Rubio is definitely not who he claims to be...I have that from people that have worked directly with him in the past.
We have to stop supporting any career politician it is they who are destroying our country.
Exactly!
Your assumptions are without merit my friend.
We are in the PRIMARY, Dr. Escoffery has no intention of leaving the Republican Party even IF he is defeated in the PRIMARY. In fact I would personally encourage him to run again in 2012 if he is not successful in defeating Marco Rubio on 24 August 2010. Your comment is a poor attempt to "scare" folks into voting for Marco Rubio instead of Dr. Escoffery in the primary. I encourage the Republicans in Florida to compare Dr. Escoffery and Marco Rubio side by side and chose the MOST CONSERVATIVE candidate to face off with Charlie Crist. I believe that Dr. Escoffery is exactly the type of "non-politician" candidate that the people of Florida have been craving. Marco Rubio is very young and should use the next 2 years to get some more experience in LIFE, then come back in 2012 to take on Bill Nelson.
P.S. IMHO Marco Rubio will lose to Charlie Crist in November if he defeats Dr. Escoffery on 24 August 2010.
Is this another one of Palin’s endorsees?
Is being PRO-LIFE the end-all and be-all for you?
How far down the road of good intentions are you willing to travel to get it? Would you be willing to sell all Americans into perpetual slavery for it? How much of the Bill of Rights are you willing to force others to forfeit for it? How much of other’s paychecks are you willing to take by force? How much more government do you want to see to make this happen?ee
In other words, you need to go for the well-rounded conservative and not be fooled by a snake-oil salesman... or a PRO-LIFE communist.
I dsagree and here is why... the best chance of defeating Charlie Crist is to put a NON-POLITCIAN, yet extremely well qualified man like Dr. Escoffery against him... that is what I believe WE THE PEOPLE are asking for in 2010... Marco Rubio vs. Charlie Crist is poltician vs. politician —— IN CONTRAST... Dr. Escoffery vs. Charlie Crist is CITIZEN PATRIOT - American Dream poster child vs. Poltician <-— That’s what will WIN the election in Novmber ! The Conservative majority of the American people are sick and tired of holding their nose and voting for the “lesser of 2 evils” ! We have a chance to move our country in the right direction in 2010, and pave the way for MAJOR victories in 2012... Dr. Escoffery is the RIGHT PERSON and the RIGHT TIME.. Dr. Escoffery is real citizen/patriot that is putting himself on the line for us, yes his campaign is late getting his message out, but his message has not changed his entire life. there is still 3 WEEKS before the PRIMARY and if Dr. Escoffery is not successful in 2010 he will probably run again in 2012.. Don’t make the people wait until 2012 and miss an opportunity to send Dr. Escoffery to Washington in 2010. Marco Rubio can spend the next 2 years getting some much needed real life experience. Send Dr. Escoffery to the United States Senate in 2010. VOTE FOR Dr. William Escoffery III on August 24th, 2010
Are you kidding? Rubio is going to cream this guy. I'm not worried about him losing. I'm just pointing out the absurdity of FReepers here on this thread touting him.
The main problem such a challenge brings is that if Rubio takes it seriously (he should), then he might make a gaffe in campaigning. If he is impolite of perceived as such, he risks alienating some of his base. Most politicians (and especially their managers) don't like variables thrown into primaries. For us, it is a good opportunity to get him on the record on issues we care about.
He is on the record on the issues. He's been running for Senate for a year now. Obviously, you don't care about his record and would rather crash and burn pushing your 1%er.
Since you brought up the whole “impolite” thing... Marco Rubio has already gone there.. he has refused to attend at least one event that Dr. Escoffery was going to be present at in order to avoid going head to head with him. I do not have the details on this but I will get it if my fellow FReepers are interested.
That's fine. No one's calling for him to leave. Just hard to understand why someone, in this political environment where every seat is important, wants to throw a snit over a pet issue.
In fact I would personally encourage him to run again in 2012 if he is not successful in defeating Marco Rubio on 24 August 2010.
Again I have no problem with that. BTW, why doesn't he run for Congress first? The Senate is a huge leap for him.
P.S. IMHO Marco Rubio will lose to Charlie Crist in November if he defeats Dr. Escoffery on 24 August 2010.
Get real. All Rubio has to do is run another ad showing "The Hug" and Crist is toast.

if you are not worried about Marco Rubio losing why is he avoiding any contact with Dr. Escoffery, could it be that he KNOWS that Dr. Escoffery is a stronger candidate and is imtimdated by the fact that he might actually have to debate him on the issues.

To all the Marco Rubio fans out there please explain to me why Marco Rubio is aggressively avoiding contact with Dr. Escoffery..
I think you are a bit overly optimistic. Marco Rubio is going after the exact same voting block that Charlie Crist is.... the far left will go for the DEM, no question... the moderates/conservatives will go for Dr. Escoffery over Charlie Crist in November because he is EXACTLY what the people are looking for... When Dr. Escoffery takes on Charlie Crist and the Dem in a REAL DEBATE you will see the polls swing past the 50% mark IMHO.... I know you get it, you are just having a hard time admiting it.. IMHO

which tells me that you admit that Marco Rubio is relying on Crist defeating himself.... I am not disagreeing with you.. but based on your logic, voters will vote for ANYONE running against Crist... which there may be a degree of truth to that.. tell me how that "hurts" Dr. Escoffery if he wins the primary..
