GOP candidates should ideally make their points by seeing who can mount the best attacks on Dem positions, instead of sniping at each other. Good for Rudy! I much prefer Fred right now, but Rudy’s off to a good start

Don’t you just love the reaction by the lefties when someone calls them out. The truth really hurts doesn’t it? Go Rudy. Amen.

"Sens. Hillary Rodham Clinton and Barack Obama laced into Rudy Giuliani yesterday after the GOP front-runner sparked an uproar by declaring America would be more vulnerable to a terror attack with a Democrat in the White House."

Well, it's true. Shame he didn't add that the Gestapo tactics of the Clinton administration didn't stop terrorist attacks either.

[Cincinatus' Wife]

Indeed! He certainly called them out for their support of defeat and for their undermining of our national security.

[Beckwith]

So are a whole bunch of people in this forum.

[Cincinatus' Wife]

It’s nice to have someone get in their faces = leadership.

[Cincinatus' Wife]

I’m trying to remember how Rush puts it.

Something about, “America isn’t ready for a Democrat in the White House.”

[mainepatsfan]

Smart move by Rudy. Drawing fire from the Dem candidates can only help him.

[Cincinatus' Wife]

You noticed?

[Cincinatus' Wife]

He knows politics and he’ll know how to use the bully pulpit.

[mainepatsfan]

It’ll be interesting to see if this comes up in the Dem debate tonight.

[Thrownatbirth]

Aw, Rudy. He would have homered if he called the Dems anything but “patriotic”.

[mainepatsfan]

This will probably lead the other GOP candidates to ratchet up their attacks on the Dems as well.

[cake_crumb]

I like the way he pointed out that Democrats want to “wave the white flag”, which is ALSO absolutely true. So far, ALL the Democrat contenders have indicated their “new direction” for the war on terr it to surrender to the terrorists. In guiliani’s case, even many Denocrat voters are taking note. Most Americans DO NOT want us to surrender.

[Cincinatus' Wife]

He hit them where they live and they really squealed.

[Cincinatus' Wife]

I certainly hope so.

[WorkerbeeCitizen]

Conservatives don't like him either.
My views are 180 degrees from his and he couldn't get my vote on a bet.

This aught to good.

U.S. House approves Iraq pullout date, despite likely veto

Only hours after General David Petraeus, the commander in Iraq, told lawmakers he needed more time to gauge the effectiveness of a troop buildup there, the House voted 218 to 208 Wednesday to pass a measure that sought the removal of most combat forces by next spring. Bush has said unequivocally and repeatedly that he will veto it.

Yes he has said that. He's right.
