Bingo!

Islamic extremism has been fueled by the American and Israeli foreign policy of destabalizing countries in the Middle East. The Israeli lobby in US (who are inherently hostile to the real America, too) clearly doesn't take Muslim terrorism too seriously as a threat. If terrorism occurs, it just justifies more wars for Israel's strategic interests. The real enemies are the ones who caused this mess.
I'm referring to anyone who's happy to see a high profile politician like Giuliani give a voice to the loons.

And what's wrong with being a Muslim sympathizer? You do realize that sympathizing with Muslims is not the same as sympathizing with Muslim extremists like ISIS?

How is it possible to even quantify that Obama doesn't love his country? That's an absurd extrapolation. It's only "obvious" to those who would do anything to undermine. He doesn't love "the real America"?

Snort.

Yes he was.
He learned to dislike & fight it.

Influenced in a good way.

I think what Guiliani said is spot on. I think he can speak for himself, and Walker doesn't need to comment on everything he says. Dana is clutching at straws here.

And remember Bernie Kerik? He's the Giulaini police commissioner, business partner and sidekick whose nomination as homeland security secretary narrowly preceded indictments. He then did his national service in prison."

"Giuliani went so far as to rebuke the President for not being "brought up the way you were and the way I was brought up through love of this country," a bow no doubt to the parenting prowess of Harold Giuliani, who did time in Sing Sing for holding up a Harlem milkman and was the bat-wielding enforcer for the loan-sharking operation run out of a Brooklyn bar owned by Rudy's uncle."

Look where the criticism is coming from: A Communist Mayor, and the idiot DNC chairwoman, Debbie Waterfoul Schultz.

Boy, you people are getting desperate.

Scott Walker

1. The article is par for the course but I'll add a bit more. Giuliani had to blast Obama as most republicans said they would years ago. It's their game. But what Giuliani did a couple days after 9/11 was heinous - we lived 30 miles away. That means to me, never believe what he says.
2. Scott Walker was never a serious presidential contender to me.

Thoughts? Comments?
Guiliani is about to discover that people who live in glass houses should not throw stones. There are a lot of things in Guiliani's past and private life that have not been publicized much outside of NY. Pretty sure that this is about to change and people will hear a lot more about the more unknown and 'interesting' parts of Guiliani's life.

The mud he is slinging is going to come back and end up on his face.

Obama should throw on a flight suit and torture some people so Republicans can feel better.

Not really. Immature name-calling is actually more indicative of desperation.

People who have lived in NY know more details about the real Rudy, not the mythical one created by a PR machine.
