Hippies in Recovery

What last hurrah? Many write back. Also: Gilmore's man. What Rudy gaffe? Harry's slippage. Feeling very much alone. Lousy chicken. Plus more.

Great article Mr. Klein. Rudy sure managed to receive a lot of coverage on this one. As long as he wasn't promoting abortion, he was still viable. Now, it looks like he's jumped the shark. So, Lisa Fabrizio, Ken Shreve, et al., I'm off the Rudy band wagon, and on board for Fred, even though he hasn't formally announced, though now, it looks like he will, which is a big difference from where we were several weeks ago. After all, we can't really support someone for POTUS who isn't actually running, can we (Newt comes to mind)? IMHO, Rudy had the most potential of the three, Rudy, McCain, and Romney, until this fiasco. Now, Fred better run, or we might as well not have a candidate if we intend to put the wood to Hillary.

p>Just a side note, Dick Morris mentioned in one of his recent articles he wrote for NewsMax that it would be Hillary/Obama. I believed this from the very beginning of Obama's candidacy, even maybe that the Clintons were behind his effort. So, just in case Morris is right, and Fred loses, I'm getting my bags packed for Australia. br> -- Mike Showalter br> Austin, Texas /p>

Since Giuliani seems to think a constitutional right warrants public funding, I'm wondering, at what point in his prospective presidency would enact the program to ensure that everyone who wants a firearm has one?

Unfortunates for Giuliani, a constitutional right does not require dunning the public to support my desires. The major problem with the idiotic left (and Giuliani is a full fledged member) is they think we have to fund everyone's desires so they can exercise their rights, or that we must establish some sort of Federal/State/Local government charity. The Constitution, actually, allows exactly the opposite.

p>It has generally been agreed that Roe v. Wade was a decision that was created out of whole cloth. It was anti-constitutional in its effect and intent. If "America's Mayor" wants to get the Republican nod, he'd better clean up his act, or reassume the label that actually describes him -- Democrat. br> --
