Asked about abortion, he said, "Our party has to get beyond issues like that."

Stunning. Rudy has tossed aside all pretenses of being good for the pro-life agenda. He would be the most divisive GOP nominee ever.

Giuliani upset conservatives - and surprised supporters - by saying he favored public funding for abortion....His campaign quickly noted he wasn't proposing changes to current federal laws.

Rooty is the face of situation ethics---he will say or do anything that advances his political ambitions.The scumbag tries to have it all ways----he states a postion, then retracts, denies, or nuances the position within the next 24 hours. This way all sides of an issue can claim Rooty is on their side.

Rudy's Moral Compass

Roe v. Wade v. technology (Tony Blankley)


ROE, MEDICAL SCIENCE, THE CHRISTIAN RIGHT, ROSS PEROT + HILLARY CLINTON


Roe irrelevance via a medical technology pincer movement--Tony Blankley's point--was precisely my argument to a Christian Right friend a couple of years ago. (I had argued viability of fetus on one side and non-surgical intervention methods of terminating pregnancy by the mother on the other.)

The bottom line to my friend was twofold:

  1. that the Christian Right must think beyond an issue that will be mooted by medical science in the very near future

  2. that the Christian Right should not effectively play the role of Ross Perot in 2008 to elect another unpopular and dangerous clinton by a plurality.

The Christian Right--and all of us--must focus all of our energies on winning the war on terror so that all of our children--the born, the unborn, and the not yet even imagined--will live....

In order to do that, we must roundly defeat hillary clinton... or any Democrat chosen by a party who could not be doing more to assure America's destruction.

Yup. Where's the Rudy of January? The "he won't go out of his way to antagonize conservatives" or "he may be pro-choice but he's not Christie Todd Whitman about it".

Well, if the high heels fit, wear them Rudy.

What would we say about a guy who said “we have to get beyond that” if we were killing 4,000 ten year olds every day?

He is dangerous, and most conservatives who find moral values at the top of the list, won't vote for him. A Third party is going to emerge!!
