I'd sooner trust a suicide bomber with his finger on the plunger who kept saying, 'only kidding', than Rooty with power over our Rights and Constitution.

I'll go you one better---I'd rather be on a talk show with Rosie O'Donnel than trust Rooty with my gun rights.

He wants to suck up to the NRA now, why did he not suck up to the Christian Republicans???

I can`t stand the guy!!! But I would sooner he said he had a phony conversion to the Pro Life/pro family/pro God side, then what he says now.

Yes if he had claimed a phony Christian conversion to the pro life side, he would be more acceptable to me then he is now.

I have no faith in either the NRA nor Rudy Guiliani when it comes to my right to own firearms, so this isn’t surprising to me.

Rudie and his bots believed he could win being pro abortion, pro gay, and anti-gun. Rooties handlers have since had a change of direction. What’s his FFPM up to now?

Heheheh. See for yourself.

" P-l-e-a-s-e make me look conservative.
Man, they're killing me on FR just b/c I had three wives, several mistresses,
was honored by NARAL, donated to Planned Parenthood, and marched
for gay rights under the NAMBLA banner, and appointed
gays and pedophiles to top city jobs."

"Sheesh. And my stupid advisors told me I didn't need those dumb,
pro-life Christian conservatives to make a primary showing."

There hasn't been a gun confiscation law that Giuliani didn't absolutely LOVE. He bragged, as mayor of NYC, about how many thousands of guns that HE had confiscated. And then when the first attack from an islamic terrorist hit NYC while he was mayor he took that opportunity to gather gun-grabbing liberal Democrats together and to call for more gun laws to include supporting Bill Clinton's efforts for national gun control.

The bottom line is that he purposely took guns away from New Yorkers, making them unable to defend themselves against violent criminals. And for those New Yorkers who died because of his efforts to take their guns away, Giuliani has their blood on his hands.

“We take into consideration a candidate’s past record and what they’re saying now and what they’ll do in the future,” said NRA spokesman Andrew Arulanandam.

I read that a guy once sued a politician for not keeping his campaign promises. The suit was dismissed, and the judge essentially said “Only an idiot would believe a campaign promise.”

Must have been a Clinton appointee.

He actually uttered that statement? Or did you paraphrase it?

That alone disqualifies him from public office.

No doubt. What I see, since Rudy's lead is dropping in almost every poll, is he is trying to re-invent himself, again.

He was riding high until Fred joined the campaigning, now all of them, Mitt, Rudy, McVain are all scrambling to get more face time.

This is not an endorsement of Fred, even though I am a supporter, it's an obervation of what is clearly going to become a race for three names, Rudy, Mitt, Fred. The others are just garnish for the moment.

Just think of what a President Giuliani could accomplish with all of his liberal buddies in Congress.

From the New York Times, March 8, 1994----

Democratic lawmakers praised the Mayor's push for gun control. "It would be great if Mayor Giuliani could become the point Republican pushing comprehensive gun control legislation," said Representative Charles E. Schumer, the Brooklyn Democrat who is the leading proponent of handgun control in the House of Representatives.

A liberal President Giuliani and Chuckie Schumer will have LOTS of chances to work together in a bi-partisan manner (with all of Rudy's other liberal buddies) on this and so many other issues. /s

Rooty's version of the Bill of Rights
  1. Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.

    BUT if I feel like ignoring the above I will. It's to keep you safer plus you people don't know what's good for you.

  2. A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.

    BUT if I feel like ignoring the above I will. It's to keep you safer plus you people don't know what's good for you. And it worked it New York City so it will work anywhere. Who 'needs' a gun anyhow? We have 911 for safety and all the food you need is in the stores.

  3. No Soldier shall, in time of peace be quartered in any house, without the consent of the Owner, nor in time of war, but in a manner to be prescribed by law.

    BUT if I feel like ignoring the above I will. It's to keep you safer plus you people don't know what's good for you.

  4. The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized.


    Oops sorry for laughing. In New York City I regularly seized peoples property who were convicted of NOTHING. I know what's best for you. You people are dumb, leave me alone. And all your stuff belongs to me!

  5. No person shall be held to answer for a capital, or otherwise infamous crime, unless on a presentment or indictment of a Grand Jury, except in cases arising in the land or naval forces, or in the Militia, when in actual service in time of War or public danger; nor shall any person be subject for the same offence to be twice put in jeopardy of life or limb; nor shall be compelled in any criminal case to be a witness against himself, nor be deprived of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor shall private property be taken for public use, without just compensation.

    BUT if I feel like ignoring the above I will. It's to keep you safer plus you people don't know what's good for you. I'm a Crime Fighter dammit!

  6. In all criminal prosecutions, the accused shall enjoy the right to a speedy and public trial, by an impartial jury of the State and district wherein the crime shall have been committed, which district shall have been previously ascertained by law, and to be informed of the nature and cause of the accusation; to be confronted with the witnesses against him; to have compulsory process for obtaining witnesses in his favor, and to have the Assistance of Counsel for his defence.

    BUT if I feel like ignoring the above I will. It's to keep you safer plus you people don't know what's good for you.

  7. In Suits at common law, where the value in controversy shall exceed twenty dollars, the right of trial by jury shall be preserved, and no fact tried by a jury, shall be otherwise re-examined in any Court of the United States, than according to the rules of the common law.

    BUT I never liked this 'so-called' right. As King I hereby abolish it!

  8. Excessive bail shall not be required, nor excessive fines imposed, nor cruel and unusual punishments inflicted.

    As I once said after losing a case in the Supreme Court, "Oh, yeah, just watch me!"

  9. The enumeration in the Constitution, of certain rights, shall not be construed to deny or disparage others retained by the people.

    "RIGHTS"?!? You have no rights. All rights are given to you by the gubmint - deal with it you schmucks.

  10. The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people.

    This is getting old, get over this 'rights' thing will ya. In New York there were no 'rights' and things worked out okay. I got rid of the Squeegee Men!

Rooty needs an Island where he can be King and Chief Cop - and kept away after the WH and the US Government in general.
