		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt; You know what, Adam? I had NO IDEA that having the ProLife Blogs button was the arbiter of whether or not one is pro-life or not.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
It has to do with being an active part and promoting the blog,&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;I&#039;m glad you aren&#039;t concerned with terrorism at all. Must be nice. I hope you&#039;ll remember your self-righteousness when you finally wake up. You sound EXACTLY like the leftards who squawk &quot;you&#039;re scared!&quot; about people who are more concerned with foreign policy/war/terrorism than they are (and who think 9/11 was an inside job because there are no real terror groups). EXACTLY like them&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
I never said I&#039;m not concerned about a terrorism, but probably any candidate in this field could handle it (excepting Messrs Hagel and Paul), though as a commenter on my article pointed out at FR, those who favor illegal immigration like Rudy, McCain, et al will make our country less secure. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;p&gt; &lt;br /&gt;
You&#039;re getting pretty hysterical here, actually.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Perhaps you should stop calling yourself a &quot;conservative&quot; and should just go with &quot;single-issue voter.&quot; Or &quot;tiny tent&quot; Republican (good luck ever seeing your ideals enacted, with such a tiny pool of noisy, thought-policing voters)...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Or rather than &quot;tiny tent Republican,&quot; &quot;clueless crackpot&quot; would be more accurate.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
You know, &quot;life&quot; means a whole lot of things. For example, one meaning as in &quot;get a life.&quot; Please.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;if you read my blog, you&#039;ll see I talk about a lot of other issues including the border, taxes, etc. Giuliani isn&#039;t even in the same league as Jim Gilmore who is pro-choice and conservative on other things. Electing Giuliani doesn&#039;t advance anyone&#039;s values accept for gun-grabbers, abortionists, and gay rights activists. They&#039;d love it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
As for your candidate, I don&#039;t see anything on the website, and your post seems to indicate you&#039;re uncommitted. Finally, while I know there are more posts I could have targeted, I write what I see and this one by your friend got my blood boiling. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

		<description>You know what, Adam?  I had NO IDEA that having the ProLife Blogs button was the arbiter of whether or not one is pro-life or not.  Silly me.  I guess you&#039;d better tell the millions of others who mistakenly believe they&#039;re pro-life because they don&#039;t have it at all!  See, some people try to keep their sidebar clutter to a minimum, or at least keep it out of the way.  (You certainly must have noticed I have my blog categories, recent posts, and blogrolls behind a &quot;click more&quot; link--and that&#039;s far more important to me than a bunch of banners!)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

P.S.  I never did notice you addressing exactly whom you think I really DO support for 2008.  Again, Rudy isn&#039;t my first--or even second--choice.  Just goes to show how much you know!  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
P.P.S.  If this is simply an exercise in traffic-whoring, you should have picked a more willing target.  There are plenty of others who would oblige.  Besides, the post is a few days old so it basically won&#039;t work on its own, cutesy post title or not.</description>

		<description>First of all, Beth, my bad, for not noticing this was  a multiple-user blog. However, as most of my comments are directed towards your reply, and you agree with the main point, it&#039;s a semantical issues.   &lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
As for the Pro-Life Blogs button er I found it, but I wouldn&#039;t call it necessarily in the Spirit of the Pro-Life Blogs ideal. You have to click the show/hide button on the left hand side of the page and scroll and it&#039;s the 18th Item down. under a series of links. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Finally, yes you are so scared of the terrorists that you&#039;ll do anything to stop them including electing someone who will destroy the pro-life plank of the GOP and attack the pro-life movement as a hole. &lt;br /&gt;</description>

		<description>Uh...Adam?  You might want to read that post again.  Start with the name.  You lost me in this post after you said &quot;Beth&quot; a couple times, because &lt;b&gt;I didn&#039;t write it&lt;/b&gt;.  Furthermore, you are wrong about a ProLife Blogs banner.  Look again.  It&#039;s been there since DAY ONE of my being part of it.  You&#039;ve got one hell of a lot of nerve actually questioning my pro-life beliefs, though!  And I&#039;m &quot;scared?&quot;  HAHA!  Clearly, you&#039;re projecting.  (What next, will you be calling me a chickenhawk?)  You don&#039;t know the first thing about me or my blog, &lt;b&gt;obviously.&lt;/b&gt;  &lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
That said, I agree with the writer of that piece (I&#039;ll leave it to you to look at the post again to find the name) in the point that the GOP &lt;b&gt;must win&lt;/b&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
But that&#039;s OK.  I think this is rather entertaining.  Since you made some points rather loudly but were 100 percent off on the every premise, I won&#039;t bother arguing with you about any of the rest.  You are clearly not interested in anything but your OWN &quot;tirade.&quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
And finally, it&#039;s no sweat off my back if you want to come after me anyway.  It&#039;s not the first time I&#039;ve disagreed with people on my own side, and it won&#039;t be the last.  I&#039;m sure you have been in that position as well.  I just want to make sure &quot;our side&quot; wins in November 2008, because the alternative will result in precisely what you&#039;re afraid of, and worse.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
BTW, do you even know whom I support for 2008?  Hint: Giuliani is not first on my list.  He&#039;s not last, either, though.&lt;br /&gt;</description>

		<description>I agree with you on this. Rudy Giuliani is not an acceptable candidate in my eyes. He&#039;s very liberal, and while he&#039;s saying things to appease conservatives, conservatives seem to be trying to redefine conservatism to fit his left-wing-but-good-in-a-crisis style.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
There don&#039;t seem to be a lot of good choices available in the Republican lineup yet. McCain isn&#039;t acceptable either, and Gingrich will probably wait to throw his hat into the ring until it&#039;s too late.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
I think it&#039;s got to be either Mitt Romney or Tom Tancredo. Unfortunately neither of them seem electable at the moment. I&#039;m not really that hot about Romney either, and Tancredo is just too much of an unknown.</description>
