The Real Rudy

Rudy Giuliani had been speaking for six minutes before anyone in the audience thought to clap, which was exactly the way he wanted it. Talking to a political crowd in North Spartanburg, S.C., last month, the former New York City mayor and 2008 presidential candidate was not there to excite but to warn; he was less interested in making political promises than he was in sketching out the perils we face. He spoke in the hushed tones of the day that marked him for history, September 11, 2001, his voice barely filling the somber setting—not a hotel ballroom or a church basement, but a firehouse, festooned with American flags.

Rudy makes the cover of Newsweek in a 9 page spread.

Now we get to see him on the newstands all week!

Nice free publicity!

Rudy on the cover of Newsweek ping!

[SteveMcKing]

Newsweek obviously wants a weak right-wing candidate.

[69ConvertibleFirebird]

And most of us will be burnt out from this cr*p LONG before the election. The prefect plan to get people to not turn out: Start two years before the election.

[madprof98]

Oh, oh, oh, hurry out and buy lots of copies! Golly, maybe next he'll make it onto the front page of The Nation or Rolling Stone! Praise the Lord!

[FreeInWV]

Wow. Its Newsweek's favorite candidate.

Thats all I needed to know.

[the invisib1e hand]

The man who stood up to the leftist elites and said "Not in my city!" when they wanted to display a statue of the Blessed Mother defiled, wins my vote. Period.

[zbigreddogz]

LOL!!!

At least you admit he's right-wing.

I suppose all the polls that show him crushing all D's are 'fake', and we should ignore those polls and nominate...oh, I donno...Tancredo or something, becuase he's a 'real conservative' who would win easily, right?

"Most of Clinton's policies are very similar to most of mine." - Rudy Giuliani

Freedom is about authority. Freedom is about the willingness of every single human being to cede to lawful authority a great deal of discretion about what you do and how you do it.
Rudy Giuliani

We don't have to accept liberal Rudy. There are other options. This fellow may be the best one:







"How can I help?"

Get informed: Duncan Hunter on the Issues

Sign up: Freepmail me to join the Duncan Hunter Pinglist

Or Freepmail seanmerc to join the Veterans for Hunter Pinglist

Put your money where your values are: Contribute to Duncan Hunter's Presidential Campaign

Help spread the word: Purchase "Hunter for President" items. Proceeds go to the Hunter campaign.

The man who stood up to the leftist elites and said "Not in my city!" when they wanted to display a statue of the Blessed Mother defiled, wins my vote. Period.

Even though he supports the butchery of 4000 American children every day, and thinks racist eugenicist Margaret Sanger was "respectable." Alrighty then...

[Liz]

Heheh......n-i-c-e zinger.

[Hydroshock]

Newsweek likes him, another black mark for this liberal.

[flashbunny]

"At least you admit he's right-wing. "

But rudy doesn't think so...

Meet The Press:

Tim Russert: "Whether it's gays in the military, gun control, campaign finance, late term abortion - you and Hillary Clinton are in sync on those issues."

Rudy Giuliani: "Well then maybe the other side should stop the 'He's part of the vast right wing conspiracy'."

[Blackirish]

Too bad Hunten Dunker can't get on some magazines he might even break 3%.

[zbigreddogz]

Oh yah, that's proof Rudy doesn't think he's right wing.

NOT!!!

[DBrow]

I wonder what other amendments he does not understand?

[FreeInWV]

Actually, if you want to see the real Rudy, he's right here.

[nj26]

With Rudy v. Hillary, the left-wing MSM wins either way. Abortion-on-demand and the dismantling of the 2nd Amendment.

[WhistlingPastTheGraveyard]

Seriously.
