Read it again. By the way, I watched Rudy talking out of both sides of his mouth on Hannity and Colmes. He's pretty clever in the art of political doubletalk.


Here are some examples:

He says he hates abortion, but in the next breath he says, he believes in a womann's right to choose.

He says he was against the ban on partial birth abortion, but he's ok with it as long as it has an exception for the life of the mother.

He says he's against gay marriage but for gay unions and that we must protect the rights of gay people.

He says he understands the second amendment and knows that he can't just take the guns, so he must regulate them "consistent with the second amendment.



Check the Hannity and Colmes transcript if you doubt me.

He also has made statements to the effect as POTUS, he'd appoint judges who'd not make law from the bench then says he thinks abortion ought be a states' issue - yet the USSC said it isn't. If it's to be a states' issue, the USSC would have to rescind it's prior ruling and those "strict constructionist"? judges would have to make law from the bench.

I might not have my wording/expression exactly correct, but Rudy's double-talk has holes ALL in it and even I can see that.

Absolutely. Rudy is very liberal on all those issues, I fully agree with you. I just wanted to make the point that his statements about global warming where misquoted by CNSNews - the post is more about CNSNews than Rudy.

His supporters keep telling us that it doesn't matter what he did, since he's changed his positions. If he wants to lie about where he stands he should try to be convincing.
