Remember this one, probably the most offensive thing from Rudy and still some defended him rabidly. Some defended Margaret Sanger rabidly. :

Opening Remarks to the N.A.R.A.L. "Champions of Choice" Lunch

The Yale Club, Thursday, April 5th, 2001

Thank you very much for inviting me to say a few words of welcome. This event shows that people of different political parties and different political thinking can unite in support of choice. In doing so, we are upholding a distinguished tradition that began in our city starting with the work of Margaret Sanger and the movement for reproductive freedom that began in the early decades of the 20th century.

As a Republican who supports a woman's right to choose, it is particularly an honor to be here. And I would like to explain, just for one moment, why I believe being in favor of choice is consistent with the philosophy of the Republican Party. In fact, it might be more consistent with the philosophy of the Republican Party. Because the Republican Party stands for the idea that you have to restore more freedom of choice...

These are a few quotes from Sanger:

"The most merciful thing that a large family does to one of its infant members is to kill it." Margaret Sanger, Women and the New Race (Eugenics Publ. Co., 1920, 1923)

Margaret Sanger (1883-1966) On blacks, immigrants and indigents: "...human weeds,' 'reckless breeders,' 'spawning... human beings who never should have been born." Margaret Sanger, Pivot of Civilization, referring to immigrants and poor people

On sterilization & racial purification: Sanger believed that, for the purpose of racial "purification," couples should be rewarded who chose sterilization. Birth Control in America, The Career of Margaret Sanger, by David Kennedy, p. 117, quoting a 1923 Sanger speech.

On the purpose of birth control: The purpose in promoting birth control was "to create a race of thoroughbreds," she wrote in the Birth Control Review, Nov. 1921 (p. 2)

On the rights of the handicapped and mentally ill, and racial minorities: "More children from the fit, less from the unfit -- that is the chief aim of birth control." Birth Control Review, May 1919, p. 12

On the extermination of blacks: "We do not want word to go out that we want to exterminate the Negro population," she said, "if it ever occurs to any of their more rebellious members." Woman's Body, Woman's Right: A Social History of Birth Control in America, by Linda Gordon

On adultery: A woman's physical satisfaction was more important than any marriage vow, Sanger believed. Birth Control in America, p. 11

On marital sex: "The marriage bed is the most degenerating influence in the social order," Sanger said. (p. 23

Hope the mods don’t yank this thread...

Before reading this important thread I had no idea Gouliani was such a foul, despicable person. It is important that you inform all of us who might generally be unaware of his vile unconservative actions the impact his left leaning, anti-family stance would have on the American soul.

By the way, if you have any openings for Moderator jobs, I’d be happy to help out.

This is quite a bit of oppositon research for the Democrats to sue here when Rudy wins the nod.

Thanks for posting this. We do not need a liberal in the White House.

Ooh! Charts! And quotes! (nevermind that some are over a decade old)...

The only problem with these anti-Rudy hit-threads is... what are you going to say and do if/when he’s the nominee? Stay home and let Her Highness take control?

If somehow a complete loss is more noble to you than a partial loss, well - I hope you can live with it when the unthinkable happens and we have to relive the horror of the Clinton years all over again.

Problem is that Rudy may be the most electable Republican out there. If conservatives always play the “take my ball home with me” game, and stay away from the voting booth if any candidate isn’t just perfect, they lose their power. No matter how vocal they are, if conservatives stay home they lose their place at the table. If the rest of the Republicans who will vote for a pink elephant before they vote for a Democrat believe that the poll numbers favor this man, he will be the nominee. The rest of the party has no choice if the real conservatives don’t make a total commitment and work their hearts out.

I have lurked here at FR for many years and have posted only one time. That time was to get permission to use a quote that I really liked. I would like to post here and share my opinions but I take boo coo oxycontin for pain and concentration is barely at a minimum. It took me almost forty-five minutes to type this one. I am not able to debate anyone who has something to say to me. I am not a hit and run coward.

Well, here goes….

I am a disabled Vietnam Vet who is sick and tired of the slow road to H—L. I have tried very hard to believe in the Republican Party but all I see are crumbs from the table for Conservatives and a major butt kissing for the slime-liberal-baby-killers.

I am really sick of hearing people tell me they are willing to give a pass on his abortion stance because they think he will be great on the WOT. Anyone who is more afraid for his own safety over the life of an unborn child is a coward.

Also, anyone who thinks the cross-dresser did such a wonderful job of cleaning up crime in New York should just go ahead and admit that they believe gun control to be a necessity for the good of all mankind. If it worked in New York it will world all over America, Right!

I will not bow nor will I bend my knee for anyone who does not cherish our precious Constitution.

Please forgive all errors.

Basically swap out the red for Rudy’s support of Iraq, Afghanistan and the Patriot Act... and replace it with red regarding Trump’s support of the Republican Platform on immigration and you’re done.

The new graphic can be in pink in honor of Trump using the Code Pink talking points on Saturday.
