mbush40 - we are not at war. We are in an occupation. We won the war 4 years ago.

All the Republicans candidates except for Romney have been divorced.
All the Democratic candidates have been married to the same person for decades.
And somehow the Republicans keep getting away with the fiction that they support marriage and family values.
How dumb are Republican voters anyway?

Nope. I've been married 4 times. The number of times I've been married hasn't affected my ability to manage business, make money, make friends, join a church or anything else. It is a null issue for me.
I won't comment on the pro choice thing. Too volatile a topic.
Gay "rights". Hmmm. I would think they should have the same rights as any American. A person's religion, ethnicity or sexuality shouldn't have any bearing on what rights a person has. Again, to me, it is a null issue.
If they don't have rights, then I have to wonder what other rights they (and all Americans) don't have that they should have.
When one group seeks to limit the rights of another group when all are supposed to be living under the same freedoms I have to wonder about who gets to call the shots. It isn't democracy that give rights. ie. The majority rules (Most people are heterosexual and therefore the majority gets to rule as to what rights homosexuals get to have) concept breaks down immediately when you are in the minority, even though you are supposed to have the same rights.
If a homosexual exercises his right to civil union (call it marriage or whatever) with the same rights as a heterosexuals civil union, what rights of others are harmed?
Having an opinion is a right, but the expression of the opinion does not then become THE right by simple majority rule.
That is a very slippery slope to go down and someday you might find that the majority of Americans think that the money you work for should in part belong to them...as a right. When you are in the minority and can't protect your interests and rights because no one will listen to YOU, what will you do then?
Careful. Be very careful.

to not point out he has been divorced at 2 or thrice! he's a likable guy yet come on, i'm slightly disillusioned interior the Republicans not having all of their geese in row understanding that, thank God, that yet another Bush won't be able to be elected in 2008! And as a sidenote, polls do not mean diddly squat. suitable now that is too early. plenty can take place between now and while the accepted season starts off early next 3 hundred and sixty 5 days.

It also doesn't seem to bother the Repubs that Rudy tried to move his wife out of the Mayoral mansion so that he could move his girlfriend in while they were still married.
Funny how Newt & Rudy & McCain always take shots at the Clintons, who, for better or worse, have been married to each other for 30 years.
The Republican motto - "Do as I say, not as I do."

The marrige part, not so much. The other stuff, not as important at this day and time. That's for a time when we are not at war, or have a border issue. He has also stated that he would elect judges baised on conservative values and not on his own. He's saying he would nominate judges that are against Roe v Wade. More importantly Fred Thompson is waiting in the wings. That's where you libs need to start your worries.

Here is an example of how I see it all. I knew a fellow who worked in a small radio station in Texas, right there in Bible thumping country. He was telling me a story once that he used to sell commercials for the station and that one of his clients was a liquor store (package store there). One day he asked the proprieter if she ever got any preachers in the liquor store. She responded with in the front door or the back?
He said front and she said none. Then he said back and she said nearly all. Is this the hypocracy of the Bible thumpers and those who claim to be one of them? Most seem to be on the right side of the American political spectrum.

Why should it when he'll be running in the primaries against John McCain and probably Newt Gingrich who have also both been married three times!

they are more concerned with appearances than aptitude.
they also are against equality and want the bible to replace the constitution and other existing laws- after they tear out all of those pages about peace and love and not judging.
The candidates are not looking good- they're isn't one that appeals to voters on a universal scale.
(marrying cousins, be it 1st 2nd or 3rd is taboo, but legal.
1st cousins have a 2% chance of having a child with abonormalities. 2 and 3rd have hardly none.
you can't fault someone when they did nothing illegal or unethical)

Not really. It just means that he won't get my vote.
Mostly for the pro-choice, the marriage deal doesn't bother me, nor the gay rights really.

To be perfectly honest Guiliani is also only a Republican because he switched parties to get on the mayorial ticket in NYC.
