JUDY WOODRUFF, PBS NEWSHOUR: At one of the Scott Walker events this week, former New York Mayor, David, Rudy Giuliani made a statement that has gotten a lot of attention. He basically — he talked about President Obama and said, “He wasn’t raised like we were,” talking to the group. He said, “He doesn’t love this country as we do.”
It’s gotten a lot of attention. Do we — how big a deal is it?
DAVID BROOKS: Well, it’s — you know, it’s unacceptable. You can’t say that. He doesn’t know that. It’s not true. It’s self-destructive.
There’s sort of, I don’t know, who to blame, I don’t know, somebody like that. There’s almost sort of a Mort Sahl, Richard Pryor ethos where the person who says the most shocking thing is the best person. And sometimes on the stump, that seems to happen in partisan rallies. And Giuliani said something that I’m sure, like, shocked the bourgeoisie, but it’s unacceptable. And I hope it doesn’t define the Republican race.
JUDY WOODRUFF: You see it stopping there?
MARK SHIELDS: Judy, I think this — has to be signaled, has to be stated, and has to be called out.
Rudy Giuliani’s language is unacceptable. This wasn’t given at some shadowy end-of-the-road, secret handshake to get into the room with sort of a paranoid fringe group. This was 60 people, major fund-raisers and donors, Republican, at the 21 Club, a bistro, a signature bistro in New York City....

Judy Woodruff? No thanks. I’ll pass.
Shouldn’t he be bundling Hilary’s campaign funds like most good Republicans?
Pray America is waking
David, you don’t get to tell me what’s “unacceptable.” Only my mother does.
Actually, David Brook’s comments are unacceptable ...
Notice he doesn’t directly the accusations Rudy made...the ones about Obama’s circles when he was younger. Were they lies, David? No they were absolutely correct.
Thanks dave, I shall try not to criticize the muslim, marxist in chief and not complain that his policies seem hand picked to destroy people like me. Enjoy your mandated vegetable-based diet and the electronic monitoring of how long you watch television.
So when is someone going to get around to policing the democrats?
She’s not retired yet? Oh, she refuses to retire, like Larry King.
They’re still twitching, aren’t they.
And, Americans still want to know:
Bunch of doooooshes. EF them and FUBO.
The resident of the White Hut is a Marxist Islamic. And He HATES America.
More pearl clutching from Missy Brooks. Careful, David, you don’t miss the fainting couch when you get the vapors.
“war is peace, freedom is slavery, ignorance is strength, Obama loves America”
The NYT pajama boy speaks.
Rudy really hit the nail on the head . All kinds of fools coming out of the woodwork(LOL) picking up for Obama and Obama says NOTHING
The Democrats systematically destroyed GWB, with lies, exaggeration and innuendo, every day for eight years, which media used as fact. THIS was done when 3000 people were slaughtered and we were at war. They, Congress, played games with WMDs, Valerie Plame, enhanced interrogation, AbuGraib, Gitmo, whatever it took to make him look bad, and their actions appeared more sympathetic to the enemy than to the POTUS.
The standard GOP response.
Giuliani is a great American
He is entitled to his opinion
I probably wouldn’t have gone that far
Live with it Libs
And I can live with that.
Don’t ask for or expect more.
