A Republican Led Safer America

Republican Presidential candidate Rudy Giuliani has finally stepped up and said what most are thinking: America will be safer with a Republican President.

Let me preempt this post with a quick disclaimer: At this early stage in the Presidential race, I am in no way casting my support to Giuliani over any other Republican candidate. Although Giuliani would be a strong leader in the realm of national security, he has some other values issues which concern me.

Giuliani will assuredly take some heat for stating that, if elected, Democrats would lead America using a pre-9/11 defensive attitude. Giuliani stated he would stay on the offensive and constantly disrupt the enemies attack plans, thus keeping America safe from future terrorist attacks.

Giuliani stated, "we will remain on offense and will anticipate what the terrorists will do and try to stop them before they do it”, "if we are on defense with a Democratic president, we will have more losses and it will go on longer” referring to defeating the enemy. “This war ends when they stop coming here to kill us!” Giuliani said. “Never, ever again will this country ever be on defense waiting for terrorists to attack us if I have anything to say about it. And make no mistake, the Democrats want to put us back on defense!”.

When will the rest of the Republican Presidential nominees stand up and call it like they see it? America needs a leader who is not afraid to sacrifice to win in the end.
