Many states, including California, have similar laws.

Really? I’m glad to hear the issue was actually addressed. Thanks for that.

I don’t remember the details of the case but I do remember the rulling being celebrated as a giant step for reversing Roe/Wade.

I concure. What a bunch of ninny brained twits. It’s like the leaky boat concept and out country is taking on water!

I’ve been campaigning for Rudy, yes. But only in the comment section. His position on abortion is still a thorn for me, however. He’s just the candidate I see the most promise in, at the moment.

I’m willing to change candidates, and that’s why I’m asking that more be presented. On Fred, I’d like to know more about him.

amerpundit on May 1, 2007 at 12:14 PM

Umm… you’d like to know more about him, but object to posts that serve the purpose of informing people more about him?

RINO Rudy has been campaigning for a long time, and much of what he does or says is already covered by the MSM. The Fred phenomenon is recent, and as such there’s a lot of buzz about him- he hasn’t even announced yet.

As it stands now, he looks to many of us like the most electable conservative in contention- a big deal for those of us disallusioned with RINO Rudy, “Maverick” McCain, or Mitt (who?) Romney.

Oh yeah. That’s how a president writes about world events.

Or at the very least, it’s how a president should.

Wolfman on May 1, 2007 at 2:41 PM

Agreed. A Fred! victory would be a kick in the teeth for the politically correct crowd. That’s also one of the things that I like about Rudy as well – back in the day, he had Yasser Arafat tossed out of a party he was trying to crash. However, I think Fred is a much better communicator, and after 6 years of an administration that may be right, but has declined to make their case to the public to prove it, a good communicator would be a welcome change.

Carbon offsets in the form of convicted murders saved from the death penalty.

I don’t disagree with your point at all. At risk of my commenting privilege, I suspect that Fred! fits a certain unspoken internal formula of the host, and that Tancredo, Hunter, Paul, et al, do not. If you’ve ever written for, or been quoted/endorsed by WorldNetDaily (Michelle excepted), you’ll get short shrift here. AP has an issue with WND, and with Joseph Farah in particular. Maybe it’s the evangelical Christian thing, I don’t know. But that’s how it comes off. How else to explain the constant parodying of Tancredo as Arthur?

If I’m wrong, I’m wrong, but since I’ve been reading here I’ve never heard a positive thing coming from AP about WND, and I find them quite excellent.

BTW, the partial birth abortion thing, made my stomach turn. How a doctor can live with him/herself after doing that to a baby?

amerpundit on May 1, 2007 at 12:19 PM

Probably by purchasing carbon lifeform offsets. And campaigning for feelgood candidates so he/she can feel better about their actions. Or they could just anesthetize themselves with drink, drugs, or they plain just don’t care.

Sad situation.

WHAT?!

If the woman he murdered could abort her own baby and it not be murder, then how can he be guilty of murder? Since abortion is a matter of civil rights, it seems as if the only law they should charge him with is denying her the civil right to murder her own baby.

Key word of today – electability – capable of, or having a reasonable chance of, being elected, as to public office
Entelechy on May 1, 2007 at 12:59 PM

I don’t know about others, but this is my point. Right now Fred is not electable because he hasn’t even declared yet. Once he does, I’ll reconsider.

It is just a hope, a faint glimmer right now, but what a pure joy it would be to actually vote for someone who is competent, holds the interests of the nation above all of the special interests, and has the wisdom, intelligence, and integrity to fill our expectations of the President of the United States.

What a pure joy it would be to vote for Fred!, a spectacular choice, rather than for the one who will do the least damage.

The Fred Thompson article dealt with complex issues, around the world, not only the important one in Mexico. No one so far, no one, not our current admin., not our media, no one has had the cojones to say those words, yet. Stones, indeed!

Gumballs?, perhaps?

I remember the herd on the Left, from 2004, and how entertaining it was to watch those debates. This time around is no different. I simply hope we’ll not offer the same from the center-to-the-right. Some on the list aren’t even worthy a mention. Others might contribute an idea or two to the discussions, but have no chance in heck of getting even close to being nominated.

AP is still for Rudy, as he stated in recent posts. There is a thread on Mr. McCain on HA right now.

This thread has been hijacked, again.

Utterly barbaric, in this instance, it’s hypocrisy to point at Muslim atrocities and at the same time allow the murder of a baby in that child’s most innocent and vulnerable form, near or at full term and sentient.

BTW, Edwards at about 10 to 1 is a strong indicator that his campaign may be over before it even gets going.

Have a good day!

This is a conservative website

Rudy’s not that conserative. Easy enough.

It would be a Newt(!) lovefest if he didn’t have so much baggage.

The political talk here is just that. There are no links to websites for just one side; all get mentioned, some good, some bad. The reception depends on the NEWS you generate. In the case of Fred Thompson, a lot of talk means more, not less coverage.

The group at HotAir do a great job of providing what’s hot vs. what’s not. IMHO

Welcome to the world’s first full-service conservative Internet broadcast network!

Fair enough. I stand corrected.

As to the rest of your points in the above post, I could not agree more. But like I said, I’m sure we will be seeing a great deal more about each of the GOP hopefuls in the very near future. It’s early yet.

Much respect. I gotta get some work done. I’ll check in later.

That must engender a real feeling of power diety with the “doctor”.

MUCH better.

I haven’t thrown my total support behind anyone yet because it is way too early, but I know enough about Rudy, McCain, and Mitt! to make a reasonable comparisons at this point in the race. Fred just has offered nothing substantial compared to those three a-fore-mentioned candidates.

That must engender a real feeling of power diety with the “doctor”.
