Former NYC Mayor Rudy Giuliani told a group of guests in a private party that he didn’t think Emperor Barack I really loves the country he reigns over:
“I do not believe, and I know this is a horrible thing to say, but I do not believe that the president loves America,” Giuliani said during the dinner at the 21 Club, a former Prohibition-era speakeasy in midtown Manhattan. “He doesn’t love you. And he doesn’t love me. He wasn’t brought up the way you were brought up and I was brought up through love of this country.”
Let’s put it this way, if a man were about to get married, and on the eve of the wedding said, “I am going to fundamentally transform this woman!” would anyone think that he loved her?
How about if he traveled the world, telling everyone how ashamed he was of her past behavior? How about if he complained constantly about how racist and backwards she was? How about if he treated his wife like the only good thing she had ever done was marry him?
Would you still believe that he loved her?
Obama don’t love nothin’ but Obama.

Very well said.
You generally don’t want to “fundamentally transform” something you love.
Web images may go away, so just for the record….the reference is to a tweet: “Funny, I don’t remember any of the media running to Bush’s defense when Kanye said he hates black people. So f*ck off with the sanctimony.”
I do hope James Edward shows up to call us all traitors. It adds humor 🙂
First I don’t think what Rudy said was horrible at all. Not only was he spot on accurate but he has the balls , of a bull elephant for saying it, I wish more would.
Obama’s clown car of an administration doesn’t like Rudy’s comments, well tough shit.
Worse I think that Pres. Obama doesn’t know America, not understand it. Raised in Indonesia and Hawaii, he just doesn’t get the seas-to-shining-sea, purple-mountains-majesty America. He doesn’t even have the cosseted coastal-uburbanite’s parochial p.o.v. of fly-over America.
He has no friends, no family, no hobbies, no enthusiasms, no outside interests, nor places he likes to visit for their own-sake.
His adult life’s been campaigning, campaigning, campaigning; never looking out the window of his plane or campaign bus, never a moment of genuine curiosity about what’s beyond the glass. …Just talking-points and hollow anecdotes collected by an indifferent and tone-deaf staff.
If it were not that he is the incumbent-Leader of the Known-Universe, it would be quite sad….
Conceit
It is conceit that kills us
and makes us cowards instead of gods.
Under the great Command: Know thy self, and that thou art mortal!
we have become fatally self-conscious, fatally self-important, fatally entangled in the cocoon coils of our conceit.
Now we have to admit we can’t know ourselves, we can only know about ourselves.
And I am not interested to know about myself any more,
I only entangle myself in the knowing.
Now let me be myself,
now let me be myself, and flicker forth,
now let me be myself, in the being, one of the gods.

Giuliani is old and white so according to one of the gay reporters in Chicago that is Bath House Barry’s type, unless Barry doesn’t need to earn money that way anymore. Maybe he is too small.
I have been waiting for the day, that someone would have the balls to say what needs to be said about this president. Rudy has always had those balls, and he used them!!! Thank you Rudy for saying what so many of us feel!!!
Wendy, I agree. As I concluded in the thread below this one; should Rudy apologize? Not no but hell no and absolutely no.
