Giuliani has obviously Opened a can of worms

Posted on 02/22/2015 5:30:53 PM PST by big bad easter bunny

So the left has come out swinging like they have not swung in a long time, the left does not like Obama's patriotism being questioned, it is all hands on deck fighting the charge. What I am seeing is an opening for all the evidence to finally pour out, he is finally being vetted?

Everyone, left and right, know what Ameica was about at its founding. Freedom. Liberty.

Now, imagine yourself a leftist who has twisted those words to mean alternative or completely opposite things. The new definitions are how you see America. Freedom, for example, means freedom from being offended.

You know, deep down, that your definitions of freedom and liberty do not match the initial definition of the words despite what you claim in public. So when people attack your patriotism, you interpret that as an attack on what you mean when you say freedom and liberty.

And if you were a liberal, you’d get defensive.

This is my view on why they overreact when their patriotism is questioned. They’ve wrapped themselves up in different definitions of the words which define our country, When their personal definitions come in contact with the commonly understood definitions, their personal definitions are questioned and found wanting. Their shield is stripped away and they’re left feeling vulnerable.

I don’t believe for one minute that the media is being forced into vetting Obama, but they are being forced into running interference for him once again. The media will continue to do what they have become experts at, obfuscation, covering up, and misdirection, whatever it takes to keep the world from admitting the truth about the Democrat Party and its goals. Expect a full on attack against any conservatives who don’t come out against what Rudy has said.

To the Democrat Cult, this is not a question of patriotism, it’s blasphemy ... truly, it is.

How I’d like to agree, but I’m afraid in the New Reality, Obama could be caught red handed doing the most despicable thing you can imagine and he’d skate ‘cause hey, he’s the first black President, dontcha know.

What’s really got the Left agitated on this isn’t that Obama has been exposed, but that there are enough of us unwashed bitter clingers that his Anti-Americanism could even be an issue. In the New Reality, pointing out he’s been bred a commie makes YOU Anti-American.

If they can shame Rudy for speaking out, then who can speak out? I think Obama may be on thin ice as you say, but he’s dragging us and freedom with him. It’s just as likely that this will be the final nail in the coffin to any serious public opposition to Obama.

The left gets really nasty when the accusations are true ... they are much harder to defend against and require name calling, personal attacks, etc. to counter.

Please, God, incline your head slightly toward us. Heed our prayers to bless us, even so slightly, again.

Thank you, Jesus, for these precious gifts you’ve given us against our enemies. We are very grateful.

In Jesus’ Holy Name,
Amen

Giuliani has laid bare the hatred and purely intellectual curiosity of America. Since the Left operate as one, they attack like drone bees.

I’m one of those people who look for patterns and signs, and they all point to zero skating on ice that’s about to break.

Yeah, and Benjamin Netanyahu is coming next month with a big iron spike and a pile-driver to hit it with.

The left doesn’t like the Sultan’s patriotism being questioned because they are uncomfortable with the answer which they already know.

Where? Once you destroy the dollar, which appears to be one of his goals, how can you live in such a manner? Obama will certainly learn too late that he’s a useful-idiot patsy and nobody will take him in if he does make the US fall.

Remember, the end of what they’re calling “pax Americana” won’t result in “pax-anybodyelse-ica”. If the libs think that war on the planet is bad now, they ain’t seen anything yet—and they’ll have caused it.

They’ll run out of lies. It’ll be a mess when they do.

This is not just an indictment of Obama. Communism is the entire democrat party, and they need to be outed.

What I’m seeing from the democrat-media complex is defending dogeater by saying Rudy shouldn’t say such unpleasant, obvious things. Notice they don’t (can’t) defend Fredo from the charge, except to say the charge shouldn’t be made.

The difference this time is that the charge is made with the context of support for Israel in the backdrop. Giuliani is saying that Obama's lack of support for Israel is equal to his lack of love for the United States.

People must keep this discussion connected to support for Israel.

Well not to change the subject, but I don’t see anyone on our side, supporting American manufacturing either.

Just saying.

We are 18+ trillion in debt. And that is (rapidly) climbing.

Bring back industry, to America.
