"Giuliani, increasingly unpopular over a series of police shootings, faced off on his call-in radio program against Margarita Rosario, the mother of a young man who had been shot and killed by two detectives four years earlier. Rather than accept Rosario's version of events, Giuliani challenged her at every turn, carefully recounting the details of her son's encounter with the police and his long rap sheet. At one point, he bluntly suggested the blame for her son's death might lie with her own poor parenting: "Maybe you should ask yourself some questions about the way he was brought up and the things that happened to him."

The thing that gets me is that so many of the people that are so against Rudy are actually the ones that would love him the most if they saw him in action. The above quote is an example. What I always liked about Rudy is that he's an unapologetic, sometimes vicious logical thinker that doesn't take any crap from anyone.

I know it sounds crazy to some and I know he's weak on social issues, but I do believe Rudy's policies will be far tougher than Bush's. Not only in the WOT, but fighting the Dems here at home.

What the hell's he gonna fight 'em on? He agrees with their entire platform.

He already showed he's not afraid of terrorists and doesn't suck up to them by kicking Arafat out of NY and also shoving a $10 million dollar check in a Saudi Princes' face!

Exactly!

Throughout his terms as mayor, liberals were lighting themselves on fire and jumping out of windows with rage. Rudy made sure the body was ticketed for littering.

Takes no crap, never backs down, and does not pander. All the things most here want, but they've never seen him in action, so they just don't know.

So, they pull out their checklists and there position papers, not realizing Rudy is a unique character that's way above all that nonsense.

Says what he will do, does what he says, and ATTACKS the media/lib monster. You may not agree with all of it, but you will agree with the important stuff.

Mark my words, many here who hate him now will grow to absolutely love him if he wins.
