If Rudy Giuliani was really and truly a Republican, the first thing he would have said, after being sworn in as mayor, would have been, "folks, you have some laws here that infringe upon the inalieanable rights of other New Yorkers, and I am going to work to correct this wrong. There may be some things that most of you want, but, you can't have them, if they ignore the rights of even the smallest minority among you"! Rudy never thought of this, he is just another democrat! Our source of freedom is our Republic, God save it, from all the craven democrats!
I suspect that there are several reasons for calling yourself "Republican", obviously, not everyone does so for the same reason we do.
"Republican" is more than just a string of letters, it has a concise and specific definition, maybe it is time to ask some folks just why they are hanging around!
Rudy has proven, over and over, that he hasn't a clue about the definition of the name he claims, how many chances do I have to give him?
Rudy left New York office with New York still in exactly the same European cesspool he found it in, maybe he should run for office in France!
"Rudy left New York office with New York still in exactly the same European cesspool he found it in" - Do you live in NYC ? Have you lived in NYC ? If you are such an expert on what Guliani has done there. If you have not lived in NYC and seen what changes the man brought to the city when he was mayor, don't talk to me about NY.
You don't know what the hell you're talking about. Rudy cut taxes and cut crime, dramatically. And, he led the city through the biggest crisis in its history.
I'd be willing to bet few NYers will trash Rudy.
You, as a New Yorker, have valid premises, but, valid only in New York! You are happy to exist under an edited version of the Bill of Rights, I will not!
Y'all wanna cut your crime big time? Try letting good folks fight back. If you think any of your gangbangers would last 15 minutes in my neighborhood, best you think again. Hell, I'll even send you the map coordinates, just load them up on a bus and send them down. You are held hostage by your lack of, well, I won't say it, but you can figure out what I mean. What y'all need to do is declare Rudy King of New York, and keep him there!
I really sympathized with y'all on 9-11, but it could have been worse, it could have been Palatka!
In spite of what you've been told, you are not the greatest city in the US, just the biggest.
I'm a Texan.
And I still support Rudy. There's nobody who can take on terrorism like he can.
Hell, Molly Ivins is a Texan! You want to see someone take on terrorism, vote for me, I'm a real Republican!
