I've heard him explain it 1000 times. I even asked him myself and understand his thinking. All your protestations and arguments are swept away by his declaration of his choice for Supreme Court which is "strict constructionist" with examples of Scalia and Thomas as his models.

But my comment was in response to the remark about Rudy's crime record, which no matter what you say about him, you have to admit he turned New York into a livable city and drove the Marxist media to convulsions of hate.

A few vague statements about "strict constructionists" does nothing to change Rudy's record and continual reiteration of liberal social policies. He is a Euro-style statist who is culturally impervious it seems to AMERICAN-style libertarianism/conservatism. Nixon made similar statements, but remained a "moderate" during his period in the white house.

I don't care for Sarah Palin, but she is way beyond Rudy's learning curve about constitutional issues. Keep Greasy Rudy in New York where he belongs (I can always request another table when he sits near me in a restaurant).
