Former New York Mayor Rudy Giuliani led off with his strongest card, his terrorism-fighting credentials, before touching on healthcare, immigration and energy policy in a speech to a welcoming crowd Saturday.
"Sept. 11, 2001, taught me and I believe it taught a lot of people, including President Bush that we have to remain on offense," Giuliani said. "That means that we have to use our military. We can't show weakness."
Giuliani seemed to hit all the right notes Saturday, getting applause when he criticized Democrats' stance on healthcare and advocated vouchers for schools.
On immigration, he told reporters he doesn't support amnesty for illegal immigrants, but he could support a guest worker program if there were adequate border security and tamper-proof ID cards. He said that even if illegal immigrants "can demonstrate that they are lawful, that they are paying taxes [and] that they'll pay penalties," they still shouldn't be put ahead of people who go through legal channels.
"And citizenship here, if it's earned, should be premised on being able to read and write English and understand American history, so we restore assimilation to the process of immigration," he said.
"Nothing will unite the Republicans more than a candidate who can beat Hillary Clinton," Curry said.

Why do you want to limit or ban anyone who disagrees with you? What are you afraid of? I'm not afraid of anything; however, this is a conservative forum and many do not understand that.
And YES, I DO CONSIDER MYSELF TO BE A PROLIFE, PRO 2ND AMENDMENT, CONSERVATIVE REPUBLICAN
Then why would you vote for the MOST LIBERAL PERSON TO EVER seek the GOP nomination?

I'm not sure you are right about that but my reason is
very simple. He can WIN. He can keep Liberals OUT of the White House. No Hillary, No Bubba, No Obama and No Edwards!
Rudy is very conservative on fiscal matters, a tough law and order man, and one who would not kiss the butt of the Mexican Presidents while they send millions here to leech off the hard working taxpayers. Rudy is for BORDER CONTROL BEFORE A GUEST WORKER PROGRAM. I'm not trying to convince you to vote for anyone, but I really object to you wanting to ban me from this forum because I support Giuliani. You must be very much afraid of open and free expression.

Just because someone says they're something, doesn't mean they are.
There's a lot of that going around here.

Don't name throw at me. I liked his wife. Ted is an attorney. Get it? You are not a conservative, so cut the act. Most people on here see through you. You don't have to agree with me. the least you could do is be a cvonservative and quit pretending otherwise.
Aw, sit on it!!

I have ZERO respect for people (liberal or conservative) that lacks the courage of their convictions. If a person is a conservative, then they have no business voting for a liberal. If a person is a liberal and wants to vote for a liberal, then why do they insist on insulting our intelligence by stating that they support conservative principles.

Your method will INSURE that a liberal is in the White House. And in the process destroy the GOP.

Aw, sit on it!! Why thank you dear, you have shown your true nature. Such is the nature of Rudy supporters. If I were Rudy, I would tell people like you to Hush Up, you are an embarrassment and a detriment to my chances.

Intellectually dishonest, maybe?

They are rude and crass, they have no leg to stand on. Only insults.
I'll fight the vermin. How bout' you?
They are not welcome and need to be exposed.
They are so ignorant, they expose themselves.

I hope the media destroys Rudy
BEFORE he gets the nomination.
If he gets the nomination, the media will destroy him, and screw us all!
And you and all of your blind liberal Rudy clones will be to blame for President Hillary!
You want Hillary - nominate Rudy!

A little knowledge is a dangerous thing.
And they certainly know little.

Take a look at #555. I am not sure it isn't # 666. Am I seeing wrong?
