he’s the exact same animal as Hillary only he wears a dress

I love what you two have done for this country, and most of the time we're on the same page.

But I don't agree with that opinion, and it's not getting any more traction with me through repetition.

I was brought up in NYC and I lived there during the worst of times.

It is inconceivable that if, by magic, HRC had succeeded David Dinkins in 1993 the incredible transformation of my city that took place from 1993-2001 would have occurred.

In fact, I'm quite sure that the rate of deterioration would have accelerated.

I am persuadeable that Rudy cannot be elected because his nomination would split the party, but the snapping and snarling we're seeing here haven't convinced me of that - yet.

And, without naming any names, the track record of Republican elected officials on abortion - not what they say, but what they do - has been fair to poor. That's because, IMO, they have to get elected, and the electorate's position on abortion is, "against it, but...".

I don't believe a candidate who is against it, and has an action plan that goes beyond getting Roe reversed can be even nominated, much less elected, without a moral change in the country first.

And, on top of that, someone who can be painted as running for President to initiate or to force that moral change can't be nominated or elected, either.

Moral change is something to pray for. Running the apparatus of government is something to vote for.

And, just in case this is post 10 000, here's a flag.

Your flag has 15 stars. The symbolism can be drawn by others.

“I’m really quite speechless. I just want to thank you each for your class and dignity.”

(meaning of course we should stop the battle and concede to the frontrunning liberal...and tht w are radical and without dignity...so I want to thank the vast majority of you that realize that some thing are worth fighting for.

I’m not even a member there, let alone a moderator. I didn’t even know it existed till this thread. I think you should look into this. That moderator hairofthedog that is a moderator on WA has a hubbie named ecurbh too, just like you. Has someone possibly stole your identity? Or would you be lying? Don't you realise it is easy to find out the truth?:) You have a right to be on any site you want, why lie?

OK - let's be clear... You said "WA". That's MadIvan's forum. I just went there for the first time today. I am not a member there, nor a moderator.

My husband does have a Rudy forum (here), and he did make me a moderator there (I think moderator privileges come with marriage), but it's not very active, I haven't posted there since March. To tell the truth, I split my time between posting here and at a horse forum. You're free to check out my posting history on either forum, my intent has never been to undermine FR. I wrote the 'policy' over there about badmouthing FR because the last thing we wanted was to be associated with, or attract, antifreepers. The jerks at the former CP don't like me, and I don't like them. They posted and laughed at my wedding pictures. I hate 'em. I really do. My husband merely wanted to make a forum to talk about a possible Rudy candidacy when it became unwelcome here. Of late... neither of us have been that interested in politics... The weather's been too nice and we've been trail riding. Lying, no. I'm not interested in lying to you.

A general dissolution of principles and manners will more surely overthrow the liberties of America than the whole force of the common enemy. While the people are virtuous they cannot be subdued; but when once they lose their virtue then will be ready to surrender their liberties to the first external or internal invader.

There is no difference between Hillary and Giuliani on abortion, partial birth abortion, the gay agenda, gun control, illegal aliens, etc. And she wears pants.
