Not happy with Rudy Giuliani for this little statement
From Drudge, Jim Geraghty highlights this statement from Rudy:
Do I have any plans on killing McCain Feingold? (laughter) Gee, why don’t you ask Senator McCain that? He knows more about McCain-Feingold… Let me tell you a few things. This is not personal at all, because I happen to be a very big admirer of Sen. McCain. And I can tell you quite honestly that if I weren’t running for president, I would be here supporting him. In fact, if for some reason I made a decision not to run, he’d be my candidate. I really admire the man tremendously.
That does not make me want to vote for Rudy. John McCain doesn’t deserve to get anywhere near the White House. McCain-Feingold is a speech-infringing piece of legislative crap and Rudy should have come down squarely and plainly against it. The personal support of McCain is another problem. McCain, save for one thing, his support of finishing the job in Iraq, is on the wrong side of virtually every issue these days. If Rudy supports all the same crap...he’s going to lose my vote.
At this stage I literally cannot find anyone I like running for President. I almost like Fred, but we all know he’s not really running. Yet. ;)
Looks like another election where we vote for the least worst. When did we decide we needed a royal class of politicians to replace the bluebloods of England? Why do we keep electing these do-nothing, substance-free idiots that coast through life playing at politics and golf while establishing nothing more than piles of wealth and power bases? Why are we so content to be ruled by an elite class?

We seriously need a common sense party with the platform of “mind your own fucking business” and “parents are responsible for raising their rugrats, not the state.”

Yeah, but the problem with that is when you say the words “common sense”, most of the people currently active in politics (and a good number of their constituents) have very different ideas of what that means.

I think he said this largely because he knows McCain is toast, and wants McCain’s support after McCain drops out.

Awww, crap!
Now ya gone and done it, Jim.
That paragraph is like a mating call to nut-roots
wackos.
Once again, to badly paraphrase a scene from 300;
<rumble rumble>
“?!?… Earthquake!”
“No....”
“What, then?”
“The Ron Paulites are on the march!!!!”

Jason was saying to me earlier today that we are getting closer and closer to the need to push that “Constitutional Reset Button”.
I’m beginning to agree.
That “Tree of Liberty” is looking awfully parched these days. Downright arid.
