He loves “the America that could be” (once he’s done with it)

In other words POSOTUS loves sh!t.

He said, “I don’t know - ask him.”

unprepared, that is an excellent answer.

Unfortunately I am unsure if my smart alec response after a little thinking would be much better: "I refuse to question the patriotism of someone who is still loyal to the Soviet Union."

What Rudy did in questioning Obamas love of country, whatever his motivation, is good for everyone. He stood up and said what needed to be said and what nobody else was willing to say, and Scott Walker shouldn’t just brush it off like it’s an annoying irrelevancy. If the man wants to be president, a REAL president, he should use this opportunity to further the discourse on this topic and not to let it die. Rudy needs support. This is important and the man should show leadership and deal with it.

Several Freepers keep pushing Pence, but I thought his comment was particularly weenie-ish.

“...Scott Walker shouldn’t just brush it off like it’s an annoying irrelevancy. If the man wants to be president, a REAL president, he should use this opportunity to further the discourse on this topic and not to let it die.”

I wouldn’t be surprised if this entire episode was scripted by Walker and Rudy. Good cop, bad cop. I think they’re playing it perfectly. But the trick will be to extend the point to Hillary.

Its not time to ask the president about his patriotism. Its time to effing well impeach him.

Well past time to do so, but the "Parliament of Whores" don't have the "right stuff".

"The left is handicapped by their own humanistic, postmodern world they’ve created: one of the major purposes of this fantasy world is to escape accountability, but their constant lying, game playing and sidestepping proves they still fear being held accountable.

Well said! It is what I call the power of sin. There's no escaping it, no matter how much the denial that tries to escape accountability. The fantasy land on the Unicorn Farm does not cut the chain. Only by giving yourself to Jesus Christ and the forgiveness of sins are you set free.

Gov. Scott Walker said it better than the rest - "You should ask the president what he thinks about America. I've never asked him so I don't know."

A grand slam! That was the perfect answer!

If Walker hasn't asked Obama if Obama loves America (and it is not obvious by Obama's actions or policies that Obama does), then the appropriate response is to have the questioner ask Obama.

That isn't a cop out. It isn't mind-reading, either, it just refers the questioner to the source of that information.

But it does say, subtly, that Obama has not made the answer obvious in the affirmative by actions or policies. If Walker had said Obama didn't love America, the Leftmedia would have been on him like the pack of dogs they are.

It just seems to me that the magnitude of destruction dealt our country by Obama—through lying, stealing, cheating and more—calls for more than subtle responses.

Most of us can afford less than subtle responses. However, if someone running for political office claims to know the inner thoughts of someone else, the MSM will have a field day with the "mind reader" and destroy them. Considering Walker's situation (not knowing the thoughts of Obama specifically, not having had that conversation with Obama) to jump to any conclusion, no matter how apparently it is warranted, would invite allegations of 'conspiracy theory' which would allow the MSM to destroy any chance his candidacy had and marginalize those who supported Walker openly. Rather than give the Alinsky set the tools they need, his response defused the line of attack.

That implies a sense of political awareness that will keep Walker in the running, despite attempts to twist his statements which will inevitably come if he is making progress toward the nomination.

For perspective’s sake—my criticism of Walker comes from only mild disappointment in him. I like Walker as a candidate. And you make very good points.

But we should all remember that the Alinsky set use tools which don’t truly belong to them. The tools of language. Their very ideology denies the essence of language, which is truth itself. So it can be turned around on them at every point of conflict.

The key is to act on confidence, not fear. Speak to the truth we know.

For example, we don’t need to read his mind to know it. All we need to do is observe his speech and his actions. We do the same thing every minute of every day, each time we interact with another person.
