*YAWN*

Whatta joke!

[flixxx]

1. this columnist must not know very much about Bob Dole
2. The War on Terror is (in my opinion) what most people will have in their minds when the go into the voting booth for President...and I agree that Giuliani has the others beat on this...most certainly the Democratic candidates.

The last FReeper, "Jake The Goose," who posted this got the zot.
Not for the posting itself. He got it for his pro-RinoRudy comments, and for professing immunity from zots because he was a "donor."

The taunt did not impress the on duty Mod.

Bob Dole could probably takle security and take them down with one good hand.

Did he say that those opposing Rudy were ‘soft on Islamic terrorism’?

[HerrBlucher]

From another Fthread:

This is a no-brainer. You can’t invoke 9-11 forever. It’s like Chris Rock once opined, why is this guy a superhero for doing his job, going on television calming people down, assessing the damage and getting out there so that his city could see he gave a flip.

The only one to me who seems to understand it as Rudy does is Tom Tancredo and, unfortunately, he's not going anywhere.

Agreed...that is something that REALLY upsets me about his campaign against Clinton...he never played up his WWII experience...though Sen Dole was probably just not going to do that sort of a campaign...but then he did the Viagra commercials!!!!

Anyway, Dole was a hero and a pretty tough guy, and this columnist does not have a clue about that.

It is Verbotten to post pro-Rudy articles an FryRudyPublic.com

I would not vote for him in the primaries, but he handles himself very well and likes to stick it in the face of PravdABDNC.

Pray for W and Our Troops

Translation, Rudy is a Republican Hillary Clinton on the other issues so is acceptable to the Dinosaur media.

[P-40]

Giuliani is a talented pol.

That should disqualify him right there. We have enough of that sort already.

[George W. Bush]

Is he pro-choice? Is he pro-gay? Who cares?

Millions of GOP primary voters. As the leftwing mayor will discover.

[RabidBartender]

Meanwhile Mitt Romney - a member of both the Republican Party and a religious group best known for its history of polygamy - was elected governor of the bluest state in America"

How many wives does Romney have again?

And I wonder why the esteemed journalist failed to point out that Rudy's "religious group" stresses marriage for life (no divorce), yet he's been married thrice. I'm not jumping on Rudy for that, just pointing out intellectual dishonesty of the Boston Herald as I see it.

By the way - it's kind of funny he pointed out that Obama has never won outside of Illinois and then didn't mention that Giuliani has never won outside of New York CITY. Guess it doesn't take much talent to write for a newspaper - you just have to throw a few sentences together and parrot the talking points.

Propaganda. I spit on this hack.

"It is Verbotten to post pro-Rudy articles an FryRudyPublic.com"

This thread hasn't been deleted yet, although the poster has a very recent signup date. If it turns out he's a retread, I'd like to think he'd be banned for that and not for posting this rah-rah piece.

By the way, was 'Verbotten' a Nazi reference?

[ASA Vet]

Did he say that those opposing Rudy were ‘soft on Islamic terrorism’?

Nope. I think what did him in was repeating the

Is he pro-choice? Is he pro-gay? Who cares? He’s pro-kick-terrorist-butt, and he’s tough enough to do it.

By doing so he appeared to agree with that position.

Claiming immunity from zots was the frosting.

I don’t get the “barf alert”. Except for the line about Bush’s "ineptitude" I agree with most of this article. Many people thought Dole didn't exactly give it his best. I wonder if Fred will be simular. Whatever, we need a candidate that will pull from the demos.
