“I didnt know Hillary was advocating Federal subsidies for abortion.” .... Well, she wouldn’t publicly admit to it. That’d be immediate and instant political suicide for any Democrat.
***OK, then we have an instance where the public pronouncement of Hillary is to the right of Giuliani on abortion “rights”.

There is plenty of time to select a candidate that is more attuned to the principles of the party. Like it or not, the social conservative hold a pretty effective veto power.

BLAH, BLAH, BLAH . . . Hillary, a Stalinist who will sweep away our constitutional rights in a heartbeat . . . BLAH, BLAH, BLAH The only "constitutional right" you and your Rudybot allies actually seem to care about is the "right" to butcher your unwanted offspring. Hillary will take care of that for you. If you ask her real nice, maybe she'll even pay for you to do it, as your boy Rudy promises he will.

He just doesn’t get it. If he truly thought abortion was wrong, there’s no way he could see it as right for other people.
We see that, but he, in typical leftist fashion, believes himself superior in thinking to us “hicks” and can finagle his way around the issue.

Yeah, abortion... and his support for taxpayer funded abortion (socialism), support and activism for the murdering socialists at NARAL and Planned Parenthood, support and activism for the gay agenda, his support for hate crimes, thought crimes, attacks on first amendment, gun control, sanctuary cities, illegal aliens, welfare for illegal aliens, taking of private property for private developers, asset forfeiture, abuse of power, disregard for due process, disregard for the rule of law, contempt for the constitution, contempt for individual rights, etc.

Some damn leader Rudy is. All the bots told us was was a great leader Rudy will be. Bull. He is absolutely opposed to abortion (like I believe that for a New York nanosecond), yet he doesn't have the desire and/or skills to lead others to see that abortion is evil ... is murder. It makes me completely sick to my stomach that this piece of work is running for the Republican nomination while telling us conservatives that what we think is sooooo old school and that we ought to get with the new program.
Damn him to hell. I've had it with Rudy. In the past I was happy to let those that support him live with their delusions, but now I will actively work against this man at every opportunity.
< /rant > Thanks for listening.

"Do those freerepublic conservatives really have their thinking caps on?"First, its not only about abortion. It is about our 2A rights and no special rights for queers as well. It is about many things.
Yes, we not only have our thinking caps on, as you say, but we also have our core guiding principles intact. Winning an election at whatever the cost is not a conservative principle.
I'm curious as to how many and which of your core conservative beliefs you have had to compromise in order to support Guiliani.

And, consequently, have decided that Rudy must be defeated, even though that might give a victory to Hillary, a Stalinist who will sweep away our constitutional rights in a heartbeat and sell out our country to third world status in record time. Rudy's political views are nearly identical to Hillary's. Of all the GOP candidates, the only one who CAN'T BEAT HILLARY IS RUDY -- even he knows this as evidenced by his refusal to run against her in 2000 and 2006.
Do those freerepublic conservatives really have their thinking caps on?
This is a conservative forum, Rudy is a bleeding heart liberal. We support conservatives.

Yes Jim, however the "ect." is an even more concerning issue.
He really has grayed out the dogma of "Republicans" and of course it isn't what is best for conservatism that has prompted his directive as much as person priority is that has led him to do so.
But lest we forget, he is dead set on stifling those who we are at war with in the WOT.
It's (sadly enough) laughable.

Do those freerepublic conservatives really have their thinking caps on?I do. And I think Rudy will NOT be the Republican nominee.
IMHO, all of this is just window dressing. Fluff and nonsense. A mild diversion.

Rudy Giuliani stands squarely in opposition to your right to Life and Liberty, your right to Keep and Bear Arms, your right to political free speech, assembly, and dissent (he supports McCain-Feingold, thinks it should be strengthened), your right to freedom of religion (he supports enacting hate crimes and thought crimes against religious people speaking out against homosexuality as a sin using the Word of God from the Holy Bible), your right to private property and due process, your right to expect the government to defend the borders and you from illegal alien invaders, etc, etc, etc.

"Good question."Thanks, but I have little hope of ever getting an answer from anyone. This is at least the fifth time that I've asked that very same question. If you ever want to silence a Rudybot in a hurry ... ask that question.

I haven’t as yet thrown my support, however small it is, to any candidate, but I worry about the anti-Rudy positions taken here on freerepublic, many of them virtual suicide positions — not Rudy! —no matter what happens to the country! Somehow, a lot of good folks here think that, by denying Rudy, they are preserving the republic they believe in. But quite the opposite could be true. Look, you and I probably have many conservative views in common and, perhaps, we both might prefer a candidate with clearer conservative positions on several issues, but given the circumstances of national politics, both of us may have to make smart compromises for the good and the security of our country.

If you ever want to silence a Rudybot in a hurry ... ask that question. It's a tough question and one requiring some thought.
To many, that's too much to ask for....

Good points. He really should be running as a Democrat. He agrees with them on more issues than he does with us. And as you say, his pro-liberal/anti-conservative candidacy itself is a threat to the continuance of the conservative coalition, which would be a threat to the viability of the GOP, and thus a threat against the successful execution of the war.
