Giuliani need not apply. Also: Media in decline. Liberal reader pounded. Axis of Allies. Plus much more.

p>I must admit that I am horrified by the possibility of Rudy
Giuliani winning the Republican nomination for president. Why would
anyone sensible even dream of nominating a pro-abortion Catholic to
any office, much less the presidency of the United States of
America? Such self-serving hypocrisy is so blatantly obvious, so
John Kerryesque! It is both sad and scary that some Republicans
want the party to self-destruct over name recognition. Principle
should win out. The true Republican platform is pro-life, against
tax and spend profligacy, pro-security, and in favor of legal
immigration. Such an agenda would win if only we could find
politicians who were not afraid of the
New York Times
.

Lisa Fabrizio has hit it dead center concerning Giuliani. Is this
what we really want? A Republican liberal who is just as bad for
our beliefs as a Democrat liberal? Teddy Roosevelt made a comment
in his inauguration speech as Governor of New York about how this
republic could not survive long without moral people in office. By
moral, he meant Christian morality over all. That transcended any
other "virtues" any politician had. Rudy Giuliani fails miserably
in that respect. Even our Founding Fathers warned against putting
people in office that didn't adhere to Christian beliefs. Each
state constitution usually addressed the issue of good morals in
office holders and cautioned against those who were intemperate in
their lives.
