Brief Overview of Congressman Paul’s Record
He has never voted to raise taxes.
He has never voted for an unbalanced budget.
He has never voted for a federal restriction on gun ownership.
He has never voted to raise congressional pay.
He has never taken a government-paid junket.
He has never voted to increase the power of the executive branch.

He voted against the Patriot Act.
He voted against regulating the Internet.
He voted against the Iraq war.

He does not participate in the lucrative congressional pension program.
He returns a portion of his annual congressional office budget to the U.S. treasury every year.

Congressman Paul introduces numerous pieces of substantive legislation each year, probably more than any single member of Congress.

I've been called everything but a child of hell for being a Democrat.
But my Question is, what is the difference between voting for Hillary and Giulioni? They both believe in Gays and abortion. are you aware of that?
the only real difference is fiscal and perhaps their stance on the war?

i sense some hypocricy on the part of republicans
I will be one to say yes.

But I would feel it my Christian responsibility to notify Rudy before I vote via a letter.

That I disagree with his stance on Choice.

If you do vote and they are the only 2 candidates then you are voting choice without voting as well.

If you voted for Buch the second time around and he sent the troops to Iraq and knowing more would die.

Would that also be sending folks to their death?

Thad....Waaaay too early to call who it is going to be. The Republican primary has not started, but I can not say that Rudy is a shoo in. I am really interested to see McCain and Romney and what they offer and bring to the table.

Everything I am reading and hearing about the democrats is that Hillary is losing support to Barak.

However, I have a feeling the next President will be a moderate.

There are other choices. You don't have to settle for either a Democrat or a Republican.

That is because the things I posted were facts.

What you suggested is opinion.

From your post I have to assume that you are against Ron Paul...

Could you share the reasons why?
