DING DING DING DING DING!!!!! -13.... How High can this go???
Yeah Mike, It was hot. You covered all the salient
points with your usual expertise. Glad someone
was taking notes, I was checking everyone out,
By the way folks, Judith is much better looking
than her photos. I found Rudy personable and
outgoing. This republican party is blessed with
a wealth of fine candidates, some are even true
conservatives. But face it. They are too polite.
Rudy is a street fighter and won't take any crap
from Hillary. And he could very well capture a lot
of the blue eastern states. Although Thompson
with his "gravitas" could just pull it off.
Saved you a copy of the picture of you and Rudy
in the local paper.
I forgot to mention - I was disappointed Rudy
didn't mention the illegals invasion. But I
suppose it was so hot he wanted to get the
hell out of there.
Scarlett: You must have been busy doing photos as he did mention the illegals. He said we need LEGAL immigration, not illegal.
It was towards the end and he was trying to cram a lot in before the locals beseiged him.
I guess i didn't hear that. I was waiting for
him to say, WHERE'S THE FENCE?
I was surprised you didn't shout "WHERE'S THE FENCE!"
Rudy is strong in his stance on the war on terror. That gets major points with me. Plus - I have a soft spot in my heart for him after he refused that money from the Saudis after 9/11.
He's too soft on border security and I don't like his stance on gun control. Two MAJOR minuses.
In short - we could do worse. We could also do better.
Exciting to have been able to meet him. Thanks for the report!
I think Scarlett said it best with him being a street fighter. This mentality may be the characteristic that pushes him to the top.
Great Pics Mike, and excellent coverage on Rudi's visit.
I especially liked the Sam Donaldson moment. Way to go.
I did not know he was in Myrtle Beach until it was to late to go. I would have liked to have been there.
Thanks for your work and compliling this detailed report about the visit and Rudi's stances and remarks.
"Something has to be done. Iran cannot be allowed to get nukes."
Mike, I agree, and I emailed you may long letter to the American people on this subject, it was also posted on My Republican Blog http://myrepublicanblog.blogspot.com/ yesterday.
It is my hope that as many American's as possible read the letter. We face a great challenge and it is time for we, the people, to demand the Press present the truth.
Ken: I wish there had been more time to examine Rudy's other issues, like what he would do with Iran, in greater detail.
But it really was way too hot.
The visit here wasn't publicized much. I found out from two of my GOP friends.
Rudy's doing alot of visits in Florida and they are getting lots of publicity on the radio that his visit here did not get.
Probably the reason you didn't hear about it in Myrtle Beach.
Bad News: Rudy's wife looks like an older Spice Girl. Fold 'em, bring him home!
(sorry just aping Ken for fun!)
Cheers!!!
"Aping Ken?"
You'd have to have a gorilla suit to come anywhere close to the original!
I forgot to mention I have the picture of you
and Rudy which appeared in the local paper.
Do you want me to save it for you?
No. I can get a digital copy from the paper.
Did you check your email?
Rudy or Fred are the two that can beat Hillary. That's what really counts because she is the lock for the dems. Obama Hussein can raise as much money as he wants it makes little difference.
If Rudy would step away from his illogical stand on firearms he would fair much better with the conservative base. We'll just have to wait ans ee how Fred Thompson shakes out.
Giuliani disqualified himself when he showed his abject ignorance when reacting to the Patriot-next President-Ron Paul's assessment of 9/11 as blowback for US misdeeds abroad.
And Paul is tougher on immigration than milquetoast Rudi, who wants to be tougher --on the Saudis-- (he refused their sympathetic gifts after 9/11 for fear of alienating the Israeli Lobby.)
KKK Ken: If you fail to realize how Rudy's denounciation of Ron Paul's appeasement was his shining moment than you are dumber than anyone thought.
And that's saying something.
Rudy slammed the "deer in the headlights" to the ground. It was actually very telling about how unprepared someone like Ron Paul is for the big leagues.
Paul is a pantywaist and has no testicularness for defending the nation. He did not learn nor does even care to know of the huge cold water in the face lesson Jefferson learned about playing in the big leagues.
3k ken are typical follwers of Ron Paul because they see him as being the top of the moron class.
Thanks for the personal reviews of the candidates - where we live no one comes... so it is important to know what they are like in candid moments.
And when was the last time Hezbollah killed American troops in Israel??
I think you mean that they kill Iraeli soldiers with US weapons. Right?
toadbat asked...And when was the last time Hezbollah killed American troops in Israel??
Well I don't know about inside of Israel but I certainly know about October 23 1983 in Beruit Lebanon when Iranian backed hezbollah suicide bomber/s killed 231 of my fellow service men. They weren't all Marines that were killed there were Navy among them too. I saw it and I'll never forget it and as long as I live I will work for the total destruction of mooselimism.
Great post and pictures Mike Rudy looks relaxed and in his element.
oh and I added the Dragon Lady's Den to my side bar (I thought I already had it)
Flag Gazer: Hardly any candidates showed up at before primary time when I was living in Ohio. SC gets more attention coming as it does after Iowa and New Hampshire.
Jennifer: Toadbat was likely still being potty trained when Hezbollah bombed the Marine Barracks. And of course he would not have been taught about it in school, the liberal "news" media won't remind anyone what our enemy has done and his delusionist Dem buddies don't want anyone to remember either.
But if Toadbat has been reading this site he would have seen constant references to this post which tallies up Hezbollah's murders of Americans:
http://mikesamerica.blogspot.com...-
americans.html
-17 Americans killed April 18, 1983 Bombing of U.S. Embassy in Beirut
-241 Americans killed Oct. 23, 1983 Bombing of Marine barracks in Beirut
-1 American killed March 16, 1984 CIA Station Chief William Buckley Beirut
-2 Americans killed Sept. 20, 1984 Bombing of U.S. Embassy annex northeast of Beirut
-2 Americans killed Dec. 3, 1984 Hijacking of Kuwait Airways Flight 221
-1 American killed June 14, 1985 Hijacking of TWA Flight 847, Beirut
-1 American killed February 17, 1988 Col Rich Higgins kidnapped.
-5 Americans killed November 13, 1995 Bombing Saudi National Guard Building, Riyadh, Saudi Arabia
-19 Americans killed June 25, 1996 Khobar Towers US Air Force Housing
Hezbollah is directly and indirectly linked to the deaths of 289 Americans.
It surely makes no difference to point these things out to the contrarians. I think the Prez had that figured out long ago. You just have to go about doing the things that need to be done and ignore the constant whining , ignorance and plain old hatred coming from ill informed, self serving, power thirsting jackasses.
Jennifer: I doubt any objective reality will be able to penetrate the willful fog of ignorance and anti Bush prejudice with which Toadbat wraps himself.
But there may be some good folks out there who only needed a reminder about Hezbollah to help them understand the nature of the complex terrorist threat and it's toll over the last 25 years.
And of course now we can demand Toadbat admit his mistake and face the fact that he's been lying to himself.
Oooops... I forgot to compliment you for your photographs Mike.
The composition of the photos fits your narrative nicely.
Cheers!!!!!!!
Rudy Giuliani or Vampire Ghouliani.
Jenniehag:
Paul confirmed Giuliani's ignorance on "This Week" before an unchallenging
George Stephanapolous-too bad foir you:today
reports come out Bush has reduced goals in
Iraq, confirming the better part of Paul's pre-war predictions.
What were they? You can't turn Iraq into a puppet state friendly to Israel no matter how many Jenhags'
bad looks are sacrificed.
Now Bush will merely beg the collaborating Iraqis to let him stay
with half the forces "to fight al
Qaeda."
Guess what-Iraqis will kill your occupiers until all leave-and by the
way, speaking of aggressors, the
1983 Beirut attack did not involve
the same Hezbollah as that of today.
But that's what happens when you send Marines to run interference for
Israel--you LOSE!
So which one of his wives came with him? Was he dressed in drag again?
And Mike I meant in the last 10 years or so. Ya obviously the barracks in Lebanon but I was unaware that Hezbollah was involved in the Saudi Arabia bombings but, I am sure you have sources to back that statement up.
So if Hezbollah is responsible for over 200 American lives but Bush is responsible for over 6500 American lives, who is the greater threat?
3000 9/11/01 where Bush ignored direct threats in an August PDB.
3500 in Iraq, 2003-2007.
And Mike you are right, I wasn't, nor was any American kid taught about that stuff in school and do you want to know why??
The reason we only study history that is pre WW11 is because there are still people alive to disprove that which is being taught. American history is white washed to make us look like heroes and ignores the fact that the only reason America is in the financial/power position it is today is because we stole almost an entire continent full of resources and then had slaves to exploit those resources. Then if they want to talk about Vietnam, or the barracks bombings or the Shah or any other recent history in which America has blood on its hands, they will have to explain to the kids that people around the world don't hate us because they are crazy, they hate us because of our actions and our governments involvement and support of corrupt regimes and brutal dictators. It’s just too bad you people can't discern reality from a slogan on a bald eagle T-Shirt.
To question your government is the highest form of patriotism.
Ken,
Good point, why were we there fighting for Israel when they are already our biggest recipient of foreign aid and one of the biggest recipients of US arms? And yes, Hezbollah is quite different from the days when it was only a terrorist organization.
Mike,
Why is it that people who refuse to believe Islamic revolutionary terrorists who claim their goal is the destruction of America and Christianity are eagerly believing the worst about their Nation's President?
Rather reminds me of the scarecrow in the Wizard of Oz, people going through life singing to themselves, "If I only had a brain."
bin Laden offered America a truce:
remove the bases and forces from Islamic lands and he'll call off the jihad agaisnt America, limiting it to opposing secular Islamic government.
What could be fairer,except to an imperialist or Zionist who wants America to fight its wars?
Toadbat:
What a shame that instead of acknowledging your glaring factual error you feel compelled to compound it with another blame America/enable evil screed.
I realized a long time ago you were a brainwashed "blame America" neosocialist.
And it's clear from your statement above that you take that seriously.
Without that "white washed" history you cite hundreds of millions more lives would be lost to the evil forces that not even a delusional relativist like you can deny exists.
P.S. Where do you get this " Bush is responsible for over 6500 American lives"?????
Is your fellow traveler and white sheet wearing KKK Ken having an impact on you?
Do you have NO standards of objectivity or truth left?
FN: Thanks for the compliment. It was a rare treat getting to be part of this event and a great chance to go eyeball to eyeball with Rudy. It was politics at it's best even if we didn't have more time to get into the issues considering the heat.
Roxie: It's sad that our fellow countrymen will ignore the atrocities of our enemies and focus instead on what are absolutely minor or irrelevant issues regarding President Bush or our own conduct in this war.
The worldwide "news" media hysteria over Abu Ghraib is a perfect example. And yet terrorists kill thousands of people in the most horrific attacks and people blame the U.S.? If we weren't in Iraq, those thousands of horrific deaths would be eclipsed by MILLIONS of innocent lives lost.
History has shown that to be the price of appeasment and yet the left ignores that lesson every time it conflicts with their singular goal of achieving political power AT ANY PRICE!
hoople head and toadbat...
Hey toad where is your gravatar of you as a jedi or was that a sith? Either way it speaks volumes to the juvenial nature of your mentality and your posts. The only thing more appropriate would be a picture of a boy with his head up his ass.
Hoople Head, since you are so in love with the stances of Ron Paul I am sure you are leading the effort in your home town to get him elected and you are now of course a registered Republican. No one here listens to that fool except obviously you.
If you took the time to develop a site of your own rather than waste your time looking for lunatics on the right to try and prove us wronge you would probably have a decent little blog.
What is it just an overwhelming level of inadequacy that doesn't allow you enough testicular juice to try, or just the simple fear that no one would read it?
http://www.antiwar.com/justin/?
a...articleid=11259
a record of Israeli duplicity,false flags and beyond.
Hey Hoop: Have you put that "Jew Haters for Ron Paul" sticker on your donkey cart yet?
http://www.mistodark.com/Cuckoo.wav
no testicular juice...LOL
Great post Mike!! I linked to it in my smorgasbord today. You know my feelings, if for some reason Fred doesn't work out Rudy would be my second choice by far. He is a street fighter and the only one I trust on the war on terror after Fred.
I am jealous that you've already visits from Duncan Hunter and Rudy. Why is your area such a hot spot? I'm hoping Fred, Rudy and Duncan make it to KC since those are the only ones I'm interested in meeting.
LMC: How about a Rudy/Fred ticket? Or Fred/Rudy?
The 'war on terror' (sic) going so well in Iraq lets open another front in Iran.
Mission Accomplished!
"Arthur:" Perhaps we should just ship you over to Iran and you can bore the Mullahs to death!
Have you got ANYTHING substanive, interesting or original to contribute to these discussions?
Now that Toad and Ken have cemented the Right and Leftwing anti-Semitic alliance I hope they are happy together.
I also see another 'Leftist for Truth' is talking about the impending invasion of Iran again. Lets see, I've been hearing that talk for the last three years and the U.S. has still not committed any acts of aggression against Iran.
Yet Iran sends the Revolutionary Guard to Iraq in order to support and train insurgents, ships weapons to the insurgents and makes repeated incursions into Iraq in attempts to kidnap Coalition troops.
Our moonbats are always at work to support their fascist freedom fighters.
Mike,
3000 dead on 9/11. A month earlier Bush had a warning about this and did nothing. A short time later he invaded Iraq which has so far cost 3500 American soldier their lives.
I know they don't teach math and science to you neocons but this is pretty simple 3000+3500=6500
Troll,
Don't know what you are talking about but I love the picture of your dungeons and dragons character...talk about mature.
Freedom never:
Just because someone doesn't want to make a small rich nation the largest recipient of US foreign aid doesn't make them anti Semitic. Just because someone doesn't agree with radical Zionism doesn't make them anti Semitic. Do you even know any Jews?? I’ve dated Jews and know plenty of others; I hardly think they would hang out with me if I was anti Semitic. It’s not anti Semitic to realize that there was a nation of Israel once 3000 years ago and it flourished for all of 500 years and that the land which they took from the Philistines and Hittites has been occupied by someone else since before Christ and by Muslims for the last 1300 years.
Blaming Bush for 9/11?
You're crazier than I thought.
But using your fuzzy math, you and your liberal friends are responsible for the deaths of tens of millions murdered by communist and fascist regimes who you fight to defend against American Imperialism.
P.S. Clinton was warned about 9/11 778 days before he left office and did nothing:
http://mikesamerica.blogspot.com...was-
coming.html
Presidential Daily Brief received by President William J. Clinton on December 4, 1998.
SUBJECT: Bin Ladin Preparing to Hijack US Aircraft and Other Attacks
Mike:
Works for me!!
did he call the NAACP RETARDED white americia will never cgange he wont be the prez to stupid
DID HE CALL THE NAACP RETARDED?WHITE AMERICA WILL NEVER CHANGE HE WONT BECOME PREZ TO STIPID...
we will make sure he wont
Hi Mike,
Excellent post and once again, he is conservative enough to make me want to seem him on the ticket. The issue of abortion and gays is a stickler though. But given a choice between him, or McCain, or any of the other Democrats, I would take Rudy in a heartbeat (and for those of you who don't know me, I do know that McCain is not officially a Dem).
Blessings
Wills: The NAACP IS retarded! Get a clue! 40 years of Democrat promises to solve racism and the problem still exists (according to them)?
You'd have to be retarded to support such obvious race baiters.
Timothy: I've said often enough that there is no such thing as a perfect candidate. If people want someone with whom they agree on 100% of the issues they should run themselves.
About the first thing Rudy said to us is that we aren't going to agree with him on everything. But look at his priorities and I think you will find you do agree with him on those.
Gun control is another of those hot button issues where Rudy gets criticized. But he's been clear in saying that the issue should be left to the state legislatures to decide.
Isn't that a conservative viewpoint?
Again, I'm not endorsing anyone, just keeping an open mind.
Mike, thanks for pointing out that Clinton prevented it from happening on his watch. Maybe those cruise missiles he sent into Afghanistan did their jobs.
Now, lets talk about Bush dropping the ball a month before 9/11 and Bush sending 3500 troops to their death in the wrong country.
Clinton didn't do a damn thing to stop it and even a willfully ignorant dolt like you knows it.
And those missile strikes into empty tents (thanks to Mad Albright) took place in AUGUST 1998:
http://www.cnn.com/US/9808/20/us.../us.strikes.02/
Using your fuzzy logic, we can but deduce that Clinton's weak attempt to decapitate bin Laden created the plan for the 9/11 attacks which Clinton was warned about in December 1998.
Go sew your burka, plan to attend the executions in Cubs Stadium of your gay friends and women who refuse to obey men.
Cause you're offering nothing here but surrender.
Toad said,
"Ken, Good point, why were we there fighting for Israel when they are already our biggest recipient of foreign aid and one of the biggest recipients of US arms?"
When was the last time you argued with Ken's racism and anti-Semitism? Yet you see fit to show solidarity with him in one of his anti-Semitic rants. And please... the guy is very open about his bigotry.
Its also crazy that you talk about knowing history but remain ignorant of what you are talking about. The foreign aid given to Israel was a part of the Camp David Peace Agreements.
In order to bring peace between Israel and Egypt we promised to give both countries financial aid.
Are we anti-Israeli for giving Egypt financial aid?
FN: You asked Toadbat:"When was the last time you argued with Ken's racism and anti-Semitism?"
It may be that he hasn't argued with Ken on those points because he AGREES.
It's funny that the lefties won't denounce and disavow someone expressing clearly racist and anti-semitic viewpoints.
But then, it just proves my point that ALL their proclaimed principles and moral values are subordinate to the acquistion of political power.
If that means supporting David Duke, they'd do it.
After all, CHRISTIANS and conservatives are the real threat in their small minds.
P.S. After leaving later comments on another thread it appears Toadbat has decided to ignore the factual inaccuracies (Clinton bombing empty tents in Afghanistan in AUGUST 199
in his previous comment and hopes no one noticed.
I noticed.
Slavery slithers
Are we anti-Israeli for giving Egypt financial aid?
Not if the Zionist Lobby and Israel okayed the deal to at least temporarily buy off Egypt.
Toad please read Mearshmeier and Walt's tome on "THE LOBBY" which details how racist Jews buy politicans
left and right.
Well that must have been awesome.
I sure hope some candidates dont forget Oklahoma this election cycle and pay us a visit 
Beautiful Photos Mike
Thanks Marie... It was fun, despite the heat! I doubt I would have gotten such nice photos in a country club ballroom.
Ahhhh Haaaa!!!!!!!
Ken cant resist. "The Zionist Lobby bought out Egypt and Israel okayed the deal, bla, bla, bla..."
And who negotiated this Peace Agreement?
Jimmy "Israel is Apartheid" Carter!!!!!!!!!!!!
HA HAAA HAAA HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
Yeah, but Jimmah has seen the error of his ways and has now put on the white sheet (or is it burka>?) and joined the Klan/Hamas.
I guess those Southern roots are hard to break.
Thanks for revealing your anti-Southern bias, loser Mike-most of your kind keep it better hidden.
Enjoy the defeat in Iraq and coming defeat in Palestine,Zionist lackey.
Speaking of defeat the Confederacy lost the war too bad.
The U.S. is winning in Iraq. Maybe we are losing the propaganda war, but we are winning the battles and in everything of substance.
Sorry to rain on the parade but when one examines Rudy's record it differs in the telling from reality. He's against the 2nd amendment-its impossible to legally own a weapon in NYC-try to register a weapon on your own.
His judicial appointments would make Ruth Bader Ginsburg weep with joy, hardly reassuring given his record in NYC. Do we really need another Souter?
He maintained that illegal aliens would be welcome in NYC. Can we really expect any change? NYC by the way was a sanctuary city. Nuff said.
Rudy supports gays and abortion, well he is a New Yorker.
Finally if he can beat the Hildabeast why didn't he challenge her for the senate in NY?
Finally, can someone explain to me how a federal prosecutor like Rudi managed to accumulate the largest fortune of any of the GOP candidates?
Just wondering if it was cattle futures.
I'll stay with Fred. If he doesn't run I'll vote the Constitution Party rather than have another RINO.
Did enjoy your blog though.
Thomas: I'm not endorsing any candidate at this stage. As I've said I am interested in seeing and hearing from all the viable candidates and Rudy is at the top of that list.
You have to differentiate between Rudy as Mayor of New York and Rudy as President of the United States. Surely his position on the issues you cite depends on where he sits. And that's not to say he changes them, but that his position reflects the constituency he serves.
Tell Fred to get down here and let's talk. I'll be more than happy to do a nice write of him too.
Freedom To Lie
"Maybe we are losing the propaganda war, but we are winning the battles and in everything of substance."
Cluck more lies chickenhawk;75% of
the American people quit listening
more than a year ago.
Hoopturd: We quit listening to you to you long before that.
...and 99% of America is not listening to Ken's Neo Nazi politics.
Since you are a supporter of the Confederacy let me ask you Ken... Do you think that southerners should still have the right to own slaves?
Freedom Now typed:

Thanks for getting my weekend started with a chuckle Now.
Things are going beautifully indeed.
In another fifty years (see GWB's 'Korean model') we should have this Iraq thing wrapped up!
Sooooo Artie....
You one of those supporting a more aggresive war policy or just surrender like your pal KKK Ken?
Oh... I am sorry... I shouldn't even have to ask. I know you prefer delusion, denial and even surrender rather than victory in any form.
The Confederacy was a generation away from freeing its slaves owing to technological advance ,Slavery Now.
The Yanks wanted the cheap labor
and couldn't wait, hence the war.
Did he call to borrow one of your ensembles, toad?
----------------------------
Was he dressed in drag again?
By requiring the aliens in Area 51 to register for 'guest worker' visas?
------------------------------
And Paul is tougher on immigration than milquetoast Rudi,
To question those who question the government makes one a super patriot.
------------------------------
To question your government is the highest form of patriotism.
Cheapest labor is slavery - hence the reason why Dems worked so hard to depose Lincoln from office.
----------------------------------
The Yanks wanted the cheap labor

Typical liberal cognitive dissonance disorder, Mike.

Blaming Bush for 9/11?
You're crazier than I thought.
Notice that our simpleton does not include the 'reported' 600,000 dead Iraqis.
--------------------------
I know they don't teach math and science to you neocons but this is pretty simple 3000+3500=6500
Great photos and report, Mike. I also want to note that both Stoner and Toad have yet to produce any quality photos or reports of events they have attended. Perhaps mommy doesn't let them out of the basement very often.
You get a visit from Rudy and I get the Day Show stopping by in Manteo. Oh, is there any fairness in this world!!!!
Skye: I got a visit from Rudy and you got Monica Lewinsky hot sauce!
Well, it was hot at the Rudy thing too... Just not like that.
Ken said, "The Confederacy was a generation away from freeing its slaves owing to technological advance ,Slavery Now."
So you say it slavery was OK as long as the technology of the country in question does not have automated industralization and then call me Slavery Now? Haaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!!!!
Then you say, "The Yanks wanted the cheap labor and couldn't wait, hence the war."
If the North wanted war so bad then why did the South start it by bombing Fort Sumter?
Geeeez
KKK is getting a tad sloppy. Must be the heat underneath that white sheet.
