Steve Forbes, former Republican presidential candidate, President and Chief Executive Officer of Forbes, and Editor-in-Chief of Forbes magazine has endorsed Rudy Giuliani for President of the United States. Mr. Forbes will serve as a National Campaign Co-Chair and Senior Policy Advisor:
“I am honored to support Rudy Giuliani for President,” Steve Forbes said. “As Mayor of New York City, Rudy Giuliani showed how exercising fiscal discipline – including tax cuts – lowers deficits, spurs economic growth, and increases revenue. It is time the rest of the country benefit from a true fiscal conservative leader who gets real results.”
“Steve and I share an economic vision that embraces supply-side economics, tax relief, and spending restraint,” said Mayor Giuliani. “I look forward to working with Steve and am proud to have him as a member of our team.”
Nice addition, as those of us who value economic liberty certainly look to Mr. Forbes as a leader on that front.
I know! I was getting antsy (sp?) w/o my news fix. :)
you know you are walking a fine line there. You could easily vote for Hillary because you will be getting Bubba as an advisor too.
That's what happens when people close their eyes and look for someone who is (currently) the front runner. If not for his Post 9-11 celebrity, Rudy would be as popular now as his soul mate, Mike Bloomberg.
Did you look at post #11? You OK with him suing the feds over welfare reform because it was too tough on illegals? Or suing the tobacco industy for extrotion $$? Or suing 24 gun manufacturers to put them out of business, that forced the GOP congress and President Bush to pass legislation shielding the gun industry from frivolous lawsuits?
—Rich Tafel, executive director of the Log Cabin Republicans, on Steve Forbes. Forbes’ father, Malcolm, was gay.
Why not post the quote? Seems that Forbes has already been skewered for being hypocritically anti-gay [from the same link]
Lately, some political observers have been questioning the ‘hypocrisy’ of Steve Forbes, who has taken several anti-homosexual stances, although his father was gay."
I have no doubt that the listlessness of the Hunter campaign is engendered by the intellectual dishonesty and silly invective adopted by his "supporters."
I would never vote for Hillary, or Slick. Or anyone with similar pedigrees, meaning a liberal.
Did I say anything bad about Forbes?
Which is a good thing...isn't it? I mean, isn't the goal to get as many people to vote for your candidate so that your candidate wins? Hey Democrats, Greens, Independents, Conservatives, socialists, Log Cabin R's, trolls, midgets, wrestlers...if any of you wish to vote for Mr. Giuliani, feel free.
Shhhh. Let's quit telling them the secret :-)
That's what I was led to believe for years and years.
Why don't you post a link to this anti-freeper site that we've gone to? Can't do it because it didn't happen. But it's not surprising to know you're going to push a lie to further your idiotic agenda.
Could you be a bigger dimwhit?
Jeeze by the end of the election I will wonder if they run out of names to call us.
This is the political equivilent of Gary Bauer endorsing John McCain in 2000. IOW, does the endorsed candidate no good, and seals the political destitution of the endorser.
Steve Forbes is a Log Cabin Republican. That is my point.
Mike Signorile covered Forbes at Log Cabin conventions at his site, signorile.com.
Every time I read something about Steve Forbes, I can't help thinking that an apple doesn't fall far from the tree. R.I.P., Malcom.
Bless your heart and all, but I'm still not appreciateing your personal attacks, and carrying them over from other threads, Peach.
Said by someone who endorsed Alan Keyes losing campaign. ROFL
BTW, my comment had to do with Forbes as a finance guy man, not previous presidential candidate.
