Yes, Rudy Giuliani Is a Conservative
City Journal ^ | Jan.25, '07 | Steven Malanga

Posted on 01/30/2007 4:43:23 PM PST by T.L.Sink

Personally, I prefer Tancredo although I admire "America's Mayor," and this article sheds some light on Rudy's little known conservative and courageous accomplishments.

I've been sitting back, mostly not replying to them. Watching.

And they're still acting obnoxious so they can't blame us for provocation. The "second tier" of Rudy supporters has stepped up.

Very cool!

His position on that is not in line with mine. But it's not a deal breaker for me.

Not like Rudy's anti-gun position.

Who do I recommend to win this war? Duncan Hunter. As chariman of the House Armed Services Committee, he has far more experience with national security and military matters than a mayor.

(1995) Ten years ago this week, the UN was marking its fiftieth anniversary with a series of events around New York City, including an Oct. 23 invitation-only Lincoln Center concert performed by the New York Philharmonic for a glittering list of dignitaries and diplomats. When Rudy Giuliani spotted Yasser Arafat and his entourage making their way to a private box seat near the stage that evening, the mayor immediately ordered the Palestinian leader off the premises.

Rudy took a lot of heat for that, but it was the right thing to do.

Thanks Peach! Also don't forget Reagan signed the biggest no-fault divorce bill while governor!

You can't blame conservatives for sticking to their principles just because you have none.

We're ALL conservatives here; and frankly, I'm getting sick of seeing some of you all call some of us liberals just because we might not agree with your hardass vision of how things are suppose to be.

People who support a the most liberal major Republican presidential candidate ever can't lay claim to being conservative. I'm sick of all of the so-called "conservatives" here dumping their principles in the toilet to get behind that pro-abortion, pro-openly gay military, anti-second amendment, gun confiscating, pro-gay marriage, pro-amnesty north east liberal lawyer masquerading as a Republican. So, if you want to dump your allegedly conservative principles in the garbage and promote a liberal on a conservative forum, you're not going to be well received. Frankly.

I don't why I dont' believe you. Is it your anger...or lack of patriotism. You were on the 86th floor of the North Tower...you should be famous. Don't just speak to me...tell all of us.

Tell us all...if it is true.

Nor am I a liberal. Nor will I ever vote for a gun-grabbing supporter of partial birth abortion.

Oh, I did forget about that. Lousy legislation all the way around. But remember, Reagan is their hero. They've built up an entire myth around him that doesn't quite square with reality.

Truth is bashing??? Since when? I guess it's good for Rudy but not for Reagan. Look up his record as governor.

Here we go again. Rudy is NOT a conservative by standards established in the recent past...

What constitutes a conservative? As in education and so many other areas of our society, I see the bar being lowered in regards to this definition. Very disheartening.

"Many people vote their conscience in all elections. Of course, you wouldn't understand that."

If you "vote your conscience" and it isn't the Republican nominee no matter who it is, you have no conscience and you are no "conservative".

Pictures FROM A CHARITY SHOW posted repeatedly, is NOT just a "fact"; it is slimy innuendo and propaganda! And even after many posts explaining it all, they are spammed to thread after thread after thread, with some people stating, uncatagorically, that "He's a Queer."!

The same few posting some piece of offal, stating that Rudy was at Stonewall and engaged in the riots IS a lie and propaganda!

These things and many more are lies, propaganda, and NOT your so called "facts".

You don't like the facts, you'd much rather smear, all the while pretending to be oh so pure and at times, the victim.
