President Reagan didn’t have cancer going it. The job is so stressful presidents get cancer. Just look at a before and after photo of every president. They age.
That’s why I won’t vote for one starting out with cancer.
WOW! Is that a shot across the bow?
Howdy!
You are right
“I expressed that I would rather not pay at all, but if I have to pay, I’d rather pay less than more.”
Actually what you said was you’d pay for a $500 abortion rather than...welfare payments that accrue...to 200K per life.
What you said was very clear...life means cost/benefit analysis to you. You may agree with other Giuliani policies.
Surveying carnage is some people's idea of fun, I guess. :)
Yep, that’s pretty bad polling, and it shows that the strategy of 2006 of running away from conservatism did NOT bring people to the party.
And it shows that Rudy has NO COATTAILS. Rudy is supposedly the savior, the consumate cross-over candidate that will entice people back to republicans.
Well, he’s got the most name recognition, he’s leading in the polls, he “beats hillary” in polls, and what has he done for republicans?
Given us polls that show that fewer people than ever plan to vote republican (except apparently for Rudy).
We need a candidate who, when he speaks, espouses conservative principles that will lead people back to what is right, and bring voters back to the party of principle, the party with the ideas that work, the party that will keep government off your back, keep your money in your own pocket, protect innovation, liberty, freedom, and the life of all people, born and pre-born.
Rudy gives no voter a reason to “vote republican”, since he isn’t very republican.
In classical Rome the </i>paterfamilias</i> held that power regardless of age, and did not need any reasons - drain, or no drain. Under normal conditions the cases of that power exercised were extremely rare. There are parental hormones - oxytocin, I believe. Besides, the children knew enough to behave.
I liked his show “Into the Woods”.
Somehow they think that we are just going to fall all over ourselves coming around to supporting Rudy. Never happen here at my house!
Good point. Yes, I meant something like that, but obviously something he did that made us safer, not less safe.
To be clear on my last post: It is common knowledge that Republicans voted for Perot more than Dems did. I don’t accept, however, that those Republicans were “conservatives”. I’m sure some were, of course.
Getting savaged by the press, and sometimes by members of your own party, is not something most people are not willing to endure. I think Fred Thompson is probably considering that very notion as we speak.
You said if Fred can get in there and motivate the base. Well someone better get in and motivate Fred. I don’t believe he wants to run. Just a hunch.
Who has said theyd vote for hillary?
hmmmm.... crickets.
You got a lot of responses, but none that asked this simple question:
Name one thing that Rudy Giuliani has accomplished to enhance National Security. And supporting the ban on assault weapons doesn't count, at least not here.
Serious. Give me a link to some legislation he enacted, some policy he pushed, something that improved national security. What experience does he bring to the table?
Papa Jim just gave her a dose of tough love.
