“Can you name a SINGLE ONE [achievment] that appeals to conservatives?”
Read my post that gives you a rundown on his career. He’s for school vouchers, for instance. Did you know that? He rejected the arguments for terminating Terri Schiavo’s right to life. Did you know that? He sued the Brooklyn Museum for using public funds to exhibit anti-religious “art”. Did you know that? He’s a tax-cutter, he’s for workfare programs and cutting the welfare rolls, he’s against minority set-asides, he’s against changing job requirements to suit minorities or women. None of this is liberal. You need to be more fair in your judgment of this man—and better informed. I’m a native New Yorker—though I now live in PA. Believe me, he fought the liberal media tooth and nail to achieve what he did.
He made his statement the day AFTER she had died, I am unable to find any statement he made while she was being killed. That is not showing support as far as I'm concerned.
As far as everything else goes, it's mainly one time statements or decisions he's made. He hasn't suggested makeing any of this a part of his platform.
Let me suggest this unnamed hypothetical candidate to you:
- The candidate believes in the "right" to abortion, including partial birth abortion.
- The candidate believes in the "right" of homosexuals to have a legal union that resembles marriage.
- The candidate believes in the "right" of illegal aliens to illegally enter and remain in our country.
- The candidate believes government has the "right" to modify the Second Amendment of the Constitution at will to curtail the right to keep and bear arms.
If this was the ONLY information you had, would your conclusion be that this unnamed hypothetical candidate was a conservative Republican or a liberal Democrat?
