You asked me these questions last night?
And read this, too.
And assuming that you didn't notice them last night, you had the chance today to reply to my post above. Let's try one more time:
1) Cite the case where federal funding for abortions has been eliminated.
2)Which candidate do you support?
I'm going out so I won't see you answer until tomorrow, or should I say... not anytime sooner?
You are right. I looked it up in the Constitution, and it is a couple of paragraphs under the right for some bimbo to abort an 8 month old unborn child.
As for your second question . . .
Who do you support, AC? Please, tell us who is your choice. I'm not taking anything less than a name, not... "I wish a true conservative comes along," or some ambiguous statement like that.
Why do you insist that I have to openly support a person right now? I don't cast my lot with a "person" -- I vote based on principle. And any candidate who doesn't meet my standards doesn't get my vote . . . it's really that simple.
Having said that, I would point out that almost every other Republican candidate is more acceptable to me than Rudy Giuliani. If the Republican primary in my state were held tomorrow and I was able to vote in it, I would probably cast my vote (among candidates who are more or less "real" candidates with campaigns in place) for Sam Brownback. Tancredo and Hunter would likely be my second and third choices, but this is not a complete list of those candidates who I would find politically/philosophically acceptable.
Well, you said that Rudy isn't doing anything to curtail federal funding. So I posted that no GOP president since Hyde Amendment passed in 1977 has sought to change it, and subsequently I asked you to cite the case where federal funding for abortions was eliminated. The fact that federal funding was never eliminated and has been in place since 1977 is proof that Rudy isn't the one creating a problem, but simply following the lead of 18 years of GOP presidential watch.

That pretty much reminds me someone saying, “we don't vote for a candidate just so he can win, we vote issues not people.” All I can say to that is that politics goes beyond ideology and pragmatism and reality is central.

Thanks. See, that wasn't difficult. :-)
Get a new one. I’ve seen that one about 100 times before.
And you still embrace the gun-grabber? Wow.
Embrace is a strong word. I just don’t believe your spin, sorry.
The republican party is not GOING to split its already split.. into smithereens.. Bush did it or started it with the immigration fiasco.. Sandy Berger.. and a hundred other things.. The tax cuts just threw a bone to the base.. Tha base is starting to get it.. Consider.. that there is no longer any organized right wing, evident.. They are hiding or watching..
Something is happening I don't know what it is..
Civil War war brewing maybe.. Many, like me, have about had it with the republican party.. we are just treading water.. The boats done overturned and on its back.. makeing funny sounds from the boiler room..
