“If Rudy follows through on his promise to appoint Supreme Court justices in the mold of Scalia, Roberts, and Thomas, then I dont care what Rudys personal beliefs are.”
That’s one hell of a big “if.”
What if he appoints Ginsburg clones? Would you then back an actual conservative against him in 2012?
This thread from the paper of record with my link that means Hillary is toast, and we don't need Rudy to beat her?
Maybe Rootie is soft on blood diamonds and African despot dictators.
True, he deserves to be bashed hard on his weird prophecies, but he has accomplished quite a lot in his lifetime. For a man to create a conservative media empire in the middle of the liberal wasteland of media is no small feat; and his education of rank-and-file christians on political issues has been monumental over the last decades thru the christian coalition and his media pipeline. For these works he should be commended, notwithstanding the incessant hatred he's faced from the liberals and the conservatives like those on FR who follow their lead.
Pat's opinion shouldn't be discounted IMO. I find it very interesting that he's endorsing Giuliani. Huge plus for Rudy IMO.
Ping!
Guess who is supporting Rooty? Guess who is supporting Mclame?
I hope the next one won’t have them both in dresses, wigs and makeup!
So .. If it’s Rudy or Hillery , I guess your vote will be to stay home and do nothing ?
After this Congress , You have to vote - Your vote will determin the direction of the country.
The primaries are the play off’s - Your team win’s or doesn’t
The Super Bowl, Well thats the confrence ... Some what like minded people have to Govern. I hope it’s our side. What will you do ?
I ain’t voting for Rudy
If the choice is Rudy or Hillary the country is already lost
Well - What ever

Pat endorsed Dole in the GOP Primaries in 1996, Bush Sr. in 1992. In fact, he’s endorsed the most Socially Liberal Republican candidate in every election since Reagan - during the primaries, not just the General Election. He all but endorsed Rudy911 for President as far back as 2004 - this is no surprise. He has always believed the more Liberal the GOP candidate, the better his chances.
He opposed the Clinton Impeachment, opposes the Death Penalty, believes in Man-Made Global Warming,.........I mean seriously, the man is not a “Conservative.” You seem to confuse “Republican and Preacher” with “Conservative.”
He’s never been a very Conservative Republican, neither is his media outlet.
And for all of the achievements you point out as positives - they are all meaningless if he’s willing to sell out every principle he’s preached just because he really hates Hillary.
I think less of Pat after this, not more of Rudy911.
And I will still never, ever - under ANY circumstance - EVER vote for Rudy911. So help me God. To hell with the Grand New Party if Rudy911 gets the nod.
I’m for ignoring the media and getting behind who has the best conservative values.
Only one candidate fits, Duncan Hunter.
It is up to us to vote a true conservative in and ignore the spoon fed pablum the media throws at us. Otherwise, we get what we get.
One of the stupidest things I've seen written here.
Good thing there are smarter people out there than some found here.
One of the stupidest things I’ve seen written here-—”
Actually, the stupidest thing I see here is the following:
1.) The Democrats hate Rudy911.
2.) Conservatives hate Rudy911.
3.) Somehow, this translates into electoral victory in the minds of the Rudophiles. Go figure.
I’ll never vote for Rudy911, under any circumstance, EVER - So help me God.

I’m especially disappointed in Brownback. Does the pro-ILLEGAL immigration issue trump the LIFE issue for Brownback?
The LEAST Robertson could have done was wait until after the primaries.
While I don’t especially care for Pat Robertson, I figured we were on the same page on the life issue.
Pat Robertson joined the chorus in saying that even though Rudy belives in abortion, the only thing that matters is the WOT.
Somebody tell me, can’t a person be pro-life and still be excellent on fighting the WOT?
In fact, Rudy would be the WORST candidate to fight the WOT, because he is so pro-ILLEGAL immigration, and Rudy has no military experience, like Duncan Hunter.
I do hope Rudy is voted out of the primaries.
Since when do politicians keep all of their promises?
I don’t trust him to pick pro-life, conservative judges, because presidents always at least TRY to pick a nominee that matches their ideology.
Even Rudy admitted this when he said:
“Presidents, going back to the beginning of the republic, generally appoint people on the Supreme Court that they believe agree with them.”
