"Great thread! EV will not support John Cox, and JR says Keyes would be nuts to run."

A. Who TH is John Cox?? And why would I care what EV thinks?,, and

B. Does he have to see him run for us to reach that conclusion?

;>)

[Jim Robinson]

I spun nothing. I simply posted the definition of the word and saw how it was being used.

[M. Thatcher]

And I for one won't forget it.

Ted Olson is just blinded by his personal friendship with Rudy, I think is the talking point of choice. But heck, there is no reason to totally dismiss the possibility out of hand that Olson is greedy, gay and Godless himself. After all, he is a very highly paid lawyer, and thus greedy, and a disproportionate number of lawyers are Godless, and has Olson remarried yet?

Your forget the conspiracy folks.

Ted was Johathan Pollard's attorney for over a decade.

I'm guessing probono, but I don't know.

This is where we yip follow the money, yap worldwide socialist conspiracies.

And of course, proRudys as traitors.

A traitor being defended.

It's important to libel an American like Ted Olson from every possible direction.

No Gladys, for that "babykiller" remark, you will not borrow a cup of sugar. Now SHOO! Tell Abner I said "hello!"

:)

[Jim Robinson]

No way Jose. That'd be walking through a mine field. This debate needs to run its own course.

[Jim Robinson]

Can't win them all.

[Al Simmons]

I like Justice Scalia, so it PAINS me to point out to you why you are full of ... shALE:

My first thread was a response to the same type of comments on a couple of earlier threads that then really "bloomed" with the "treasonous liberals" thread.

Calling someone, in effect, an irrational fanatic - which is what I did in my first thread - is not on the same order of calling someone you disagree with a traitor. Or a liberal.

[JCEccles]

Make your case, Al. Why must we elect Rudy or die at the hands of terrorists?

[sayfer bullets]

Is Driving Rinos out of the GOP Good for the Country?

Ummm...

Yes.

Or they can keep it as well.

Those of us that give a damn about principles can always do what the gipper did when he realized his original party choice deserted him.

[Torie]

Ya. "Rudybots are treasonous liberals." Kind of thin skinned for Rudy supporters to be angered by that, and rather anal of them to notice that the thread remained up, and that you then shared with the throng that "treasonous" just meant betrayal of trust, so what was the big deal.

[cicero's_son]

Thanks. I've had it with the hubris of these loons.

They represent a tiny fraction of the wingnut faction of our party, and they act like they are indispensable. LOL!

This may be our best opportunity in a long, long time to prove how insignificant they really are. Imagine how liberating that would be.

[SJackson]

????? In the primaries you vote choice in your party in the general you vote whoever. Most vote straight ticket in the general and are clueless about the primaries. Thats where Talking Head TV Party Leadership Shills come in. They do the thinking for you....

You missed my point. The campaign underway is a primary campaign. There are no straight party tickets, or they're all straight party tickets.

Rudy isn't the nominee.

[woofie]

I think Ted did get married again recently ...dont know is "she" was transgendered or not

[Al Simmons]

"I spun nothing. I simply posted the definition of the word and saw how it was being used."

It was perceived by some of us an as abdication of responsibility (to keep control of the kids in the playground)...

[spectre]

"It means that we have looked at the GOP field, have not found a Conservative who is worth supporting, so have found someone who gives us more than 1/2 a glass of what we all state clearly that we want from a president; a candidate who CAN beat any Dem thrown up against him."

You've found someone who you think can win a popularity contest against Hillary. And you may be right.

But Duncan Hunter "fills" your half full glass. He just needs name recognition and exposure. Unlike Rudy, he'll fight the WOT and the largely ignored one on our Border..

Just my 2 cents..sw

[M. Thatcher]

You are focused on lines that won't be crossed; well you crossed one.

[JCEccles]

It means that we have looked at the GOP field, have not found a Conservative who is worth supporting,

So you found a liberal you could support.

Incredible.

[wireman]

If the polls are legitimate, they're not meant to "hype" (your words) any candidate.

If they are tools to promote a candidacy I do not accept them. Anybody who doesn't know Giuliani's positions on major positions by now either doesn't care or is stupid.

Polls this far out from any electoral activities are meaningless anyway. They're of interest to paid political whores or people who are in dire need of a life.
