It’s a laughably specious argument Giuliani supporters use that it’s either him or Hillary when in reality if it’s he that gets the nomination, Hillary is inevitible as literally MILLIONS of dispirited Conservatives stay home.

My dislike of Hillary is far greater than my dislike of Rudy.

I like Fred and what he stands for, I just wish he would show more piss and vinegar. I mean he announces spends a few days in Iowa and goes back to Tennessee. My perfect candidate would have Fred’s political views and Rudy’s spunk, he better have a rapid response team and be willing to slap at Hillary or she will eat his lunch.

It is simply not the time in our history to sacrifice the entire nation and perhaps the world on an issue of principle.

hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha.
This type of thinking reminds me of those liberals who said character "wasn't anything all that important" when it came to the 1992 election.
Guess what? We got B J Clinton, and his wifey, for the next eight years.

The United States is a nation of immigrants. Throughout our history, legal immigrants have brought energy, ideas, strength, and diversity to our country, our economy, and our culture. This must continue. But in the post-9/11 world, immigration is more of a national security issue. A government that cannot secure its borders and determine who may enter and who may not, abrogates a fundamental responsibility. I am committed to:

Securing our borders and enforcing immigration laws. Amnesty is not an option and the toleration of “sanctuary cities” must end.
Reviewing our immigration laws and policies to ensure they advance our national interests.
Uniting Americans by welcoming legal immigrants willing to learn English, assimilate into our communities, and become productive citizens.

I do not believe the intent of either side back then was to murder for reasons of a religious belief, each and every man, woman and child not only in this country but the entire world.

You’re only talking about half the problem. The political death cult of Islam is the outer force. The inner force is that about 40% of the country believes Bush is as bad as or worse than international terrorism. That’s the madness we face today. We’ll have to see which side is going to push us to that next civil war, and which side will prevail. It’s coming, and it’s only a matter of time.

[Eagles Talon IV]

You are probably correct. Just as it may take another terrible attack on us by the fanatics, it may also take a civil war to finally out and then route the America haters from within as well as from without.

It’s sad that a few thousand dead in NYC didn’t do the trick to wake America up, or at least shake the semi-informed loose from the moonbats (and let’s face it, 9/11 in the minds of that 40%+ is all but forgotten — except for those insane types that believe Dubya controlled the planes and loaded them up with explosives).

What the hell will be the reaction when somebody breaks in with a nuke and kills 10 or 100 times that number in a major city ? (probably NYC again or DC). This country is more obsessed with O.J. (again), Paris Hilton, Britney Spears, and Larry Craig’s “wide stance” than in demanding what is necessary from our elected officials to keep our nation safe and secure and battling international Mohammadanism (synonymous with terrorism). Those delusional folks are going to be in for a helluva shock. As far as I’m concerned, they’re aiding the enemy and helping to further their goals.
