Rick Perry endorsed Rudy Giuliani, campaigned for him in some of the primary states, went on Fox News and other media and talked about how wonderful Giuliani was. Does this mean that we should all support Giuliani?

I wouldn't support Rudy Giuliani even if he had the endorsement of Sarah Palin, Ronald Reagan, and the United Federation of Planets.

I wouldn't support Rudy Giuliani even if he had the endorsement of Sarah Palin, Ronald Reagan, and the United Federation of Planets.

One thing I don't understand, and I'm not accusing you of this since you feel about Giuliani the way I do, is that I see people who loathe Giuliani, whether for his liberal views on relations with Mexico, his pro-abortion stance, his pro-homosexual stance, or what have you, but they'll turn around and support somebody like Rick Perry. Perry went on national TV telling Americans that Rudy Giuliani was the best choice for President. He stumped hard for Giuliani.

Maybe a lot of people don't care about things like abortions, but I never could understand how a supposed pro-life supporter like Perry could campaign hard for a pro-abortion candidate like Giuliani.

I can come up with excuses - friendships, partnerships, that kind of thing, but I still come back to how can somebody who is pro-life campaign hard for somebody who is pro-abortion. In my youth, I didn't care as nearly as much about abortion as I do these days, but after my daughters gave me grandchildren, my attitude changed drastically.

I have acquaintances and family who are pro-abortion, but I could never support them for a political office, especially one like the Presidency.
