Hi Melas... I think both you and Jim are correct. One difference does not a liberal make. I doubt that Jim or anyone here would say that Cheney is a liberal, even when he supports his gay daughter. But if someone like Rudy is liberal on several issues (gun control, abortion, gay issues, immigration), you just can’t call yourself conservative.

Would you agree with that?

Fair enough. I certainly don't disagree with it. I think I alluded to this in an earlier post, but lately I've been having some misgivings about Rudy myself. Not to the point where I'm ready to abandon him as a candidate, but Fred Thompson is looking awfully good to me lately.

However, I'm going to be perfectly honestly. I've grown to hate some of the anti-Rudy crowd so much, because of their own visciousnes. It's gotten to the point where I've gotten up from the computer and talked to myself about how much I'd like some face time with some of the more vile posters as I walked down the hall to get a glass of water.

I keep going back to this one, but what kind of coward of a man calls a woman a piece of ----? Worse, he got away with it, and not a word was said. I'd say I was appalled but the word fails to caputre the level of my contempt.

Jim. Time to tone it down a bit?

The rough language on both sides has been pretty heavy.

I think a lot of it has to do with the complete lack of good candidates in the Republican 2008 field, with any traction. I like Hunter but his numbers are abysmal. I like Fred but he hasn’t declared. Rudy and McInsane, the 2 frontrunners, are deeply troubling to me in many ways and I deeply hope neither become the candidate for Prez. I’ve really had to bite my tongue to keep my discussion civil, because I’m so troubled about this upcoming election. Where do we find the man (or woman) who has the stuff to take America into tomorrow, triumph over the liberal decay taking root?
