It's Wrong for the Right to be Rudyphobic

While Giuliani accepts a woman’s right to an abortion

That line in the article is the end of the discussion.

It means that I must choose between God and Rudy.

No contest.

I fear God more than I fear Hillary. If the Republicans choose to put a social liberal in as their candidate against Hillary and we lose, we will have deserved what we have gotten.

If they choose a social liberal as the nominee, I do not even so much as want to hear breathed the initials RINO on this forum ever again from those who support Giuliani.

We will not win anything by compromising our beliefs. In fact, we will lose everything.

If you want to keep Hillary out of the White House, you’d better get behind a conservative. There’s no way in hell that the cross dressing, gun grabbing abortionist liberal Rudy Giuliani’s ever going to sit behind Ronald Reagan’s desk.

[Jim Robinson]

B/S.

“And for my conscience’s sake, I could even decide that a Democrat presidency is a small price to pay to preserve my steadfast loyalty to my principles and beliefs.”

We’re all judged in the end by what we do now. I don’t think I want to mess that up.

I grow weary of this but it seems necessary.

The only difference between Rooty and Hillary is that Rooty has better legs.

LOL. They both have cloven hooves.

Me too, but here it is again and I'll say it on every Rudy thread I come across.

Rudy - not now, not ever.

“The most important ‘traditional value’ in this election is keeping the Clintons out of the White House,” says Greg Alterton, an evangelical Christian

The lesser of two evils is still evil.

"Exigent" circumstances by any other name stinks as much.

Pro-gun control, pro-illegals, pro-abortion, and pro-gay. Appointed liberal judges while mayor of NYC.

Nope, nothing there for conservatives to be afraid of.

[Rummyfan]

As Ann Coulter said, if it's Rudy versus Hillary, who cares who wins?

...flame suit on!

[Calpernia]

Very true.

[mad_as_he$$]

The attitude that we have to settle for the “better” of two very bad choices just makes me pissed. It is still early. Go find a better candidate. The recent surge in Rudy in the pools is a bump IMO.

[popdonnelly]

Have at it, Rudy haters!

[dforest]

Now you have gone and done it. You have given the Rooty toots two reasons to condemn you.

[Man50D]

This “Rudyphobia” ignores three key factors: Giuliani’s pro-family/anti-abortion ideas, his socially conservative mayoral record, and his popularity among churchgoing Republicans.

While Giuliani accepts a woman’s right to an abortion, he told Iowa voters on August 7:

How can Giuliani have anti abortion ideas while at the same time accept a woman's right to an abortion? Another example of Rudy's two faced lies in an attempt deceive conservatives.

[Einigkeit_Recht_Freiheit]

No is No.

Except when it is "maybe". Come on baby, I can tell by the look in your eyes that you want it.

[Einigkeit_Recht_Freiheit]

It just occurred to me that Rudy would be the most powerful cross-dresser since J. Edgar Hoover.

[longtermmemmory]

effete elites of NRO.

They want a NYC buddy.

They don’t give a poop about principles.

Heck they are not even counting the votes, which is why they are just writing instead of doing.

For every person that says Rudy is the only one who can beat Hillary there is someone else who says he is the only one who can’t. It is all a matter of opinion. I have said it before, I will say it again. If it is Hillary against Rudy, I’ll vote for someone else or not vote at all.
