I don't know what the gays see in him.
Rudy Giuliani emerged as a favorite among many members of the GOP's largest gay organization; they cited his record on social issues, taxes and defense.
However, delegates to the Log Cabin Republicans annual convention in Denver said Friday they also fear that the former New York mayor, in his bid to capture the Republican presidential nomination, might be waffling as he reaches out to the more conservative GOP voters who hold sway in the primaries.

Former Republican Sen. Alan Simpson, of Wyoming, the event's keynote speaker, agreed. He told the group of about 200 that he thinks the party is in a better place than it was after delving into issues such as the Terri Schiavo right-to-life case and gay marriage.

Aside from Rudy Giuliani's torturous explanation of his views on abortion, it was easy to discern after Thursday's debate that the candidates running for the Republican presidential nomination are staunch advocates of life, namely when it comes to abortion. In fact, they were passionate on the issue, and some made it clear that nothing is more important than life itself. Former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney: "Well, I've always been personally pro-life." When asked about the Terri Schiavo case, he replied: "I think the Congress's job is to make sure that laws are respecting the sanctity of life." California Rep. Duncan Hunter evoked the memory of a late president to explain his position: "Ronald Reagan said, on the question of life, 'When there's a question, err on the side of life.'" Kansas Sen. Sam Brownback was the most eloquent on the subject: "I believe life is one of the central issues of our day, and I believe that every human life at every phase is unique, is beautiful, is a child of a loving God, period." He later added: "Her life is sacred. Even if it's in that difficult moment that she's in at that point in time, that life is sacred, and we should stand for life in all its circumstances." On stem cell research, Brownback said, "It is not necessary to kill a human life for us to heal people." That last line caught my attention because that is often something we hear from victims rights groups, law enforcement and prosecutors when someone is put to death for committing a crime.
GOP isn't pro-life out of the womb

Today is Karl Marx’s birthday (1818) and I don’t expect anything else to go right either.
