Republicans won’t stand up to Rats because they are deathly afraid of being called names.
If 0bama loved America he would resign.
The whole point in the first place is that Rudy said “..I BELIEVE...”
He is a citizen of the U.S. and has a right to his own opinion, like it or not. (speaking to the media here)
Every time some Conservative is grilled about this by the leftist media, they should bring up how familiar this is getting to the Twilight Zone episode, “The Obsolete Man”.
“...You have no voice or opinion until the STATE gives you the right!...”
Barack Obama - America’s answer to Mao Tse Tung - loves only himself and power.
Rudy would have been a better president than Obama. No doubt where he stands on the issues. God bless him.
I believe that Obama not only does not love America, he despises the country. Why else would he say he wants to fundamentally transform it?
The media has the GOP in a box. The only way to challenge that situation is for all conservative politicians and spokespersons hew to the same narrative and don’t sell each other out on these kinds of issues. Liberalism is the ideology of the consistently stupid. We should push the stupid, but learn from the consistency.

His love of America is worse than that of being loved by a woman who, having found in the pitiful state you were, will now seek to subsume your identity to her ideal, changing you into a new man, with no independence of thought and relegating you to an existence of co-dependency, making you yearn for your old wretched life and planning your escape...over and over again...
Until one day you come to the conclusion: “Just gonna have to knaw off my arm to get out of this trap...
He is working day and night to turn us into a Third World hell hole. We are being conquered without a shot being fired.
Obama has made it clear for years; he detests America and American Idealism.
Not even debatable.
I’m only surprised that the Lefties aren’t jumping up and saying, “So, what’s to love?”.
Since they agree with Obama.
Well, duh!
Every “workers” paradise, union supporting nanny-state ideologue will agree.
America sucks as long as the economy is “capitalist” and needs to be altered / at all costs / to a socialist-Marxist form of rule.
This is straight from the mouth of my NEA-member sister-in-law.
Could we have just one Republican give the appropriate response?
Are you deaf, dumb and blind? Of course, he doesn’t love America!
Finally figured out what was causing my nausea. It was not my meds, my lack of exercise, or anything else one might reasonably suspect. I simply stop listening to anything Obama or any of his sycophant political supports (in the media or anywhere else) have to say about anything...and my nausea has disappeared entirely. Although, I have to admit my thumb is getting a workout hitting the mute or channel buttons so often.
Barack Obama comes out of an academic environment that shies away from explicit patriotism, sometimes praising cosmopolitanism above patriotism (as his UChicago colleague Martha Nussbaum did), but more often just not looking at the country and the world in the way previous generations of Americans did (and plenty of Americans still do).
But if you want to interpret "doesn't love America [in the same way or for the same things many other Americans do] as "hates and wants to destroy America" you may be taking it too far.
We can't see directly into anybody's heart and ascertain their deepest feelings and motives directly, so politicians have been right in not presuming to know Obama's faith or feelings about his country, but if you want to hazard a guess at someone's sentiments, you have to make an effort to get beyond your own assumptions and the easy answers that make you feel good.
If you're trying to understand somebody else's way of looking at the world you have to at least make an effort to consider ways in which it might be different from your own. Your first interpretation may well be the right one, but if you show no evidence of having tested it against other possibilities, people will be skeptical or dismissive when it comes to your conclusions.
Can you recall heartfelt speeches or accolades attributed to America by this president?
For Barack Obama, America (or the good side of America) is "Selma, Seneca Falls, and Stonewall." That's different from the point of view we grew up with and different from what earlier presidents believed, but arguably, that's where Obama's coming from, and that could be one way of neither loving your America or mine or hating and wanting to destroy the United States.
First of all, Rudy was being polite. Obama hates America. It isn’t simply a matter of not loving America. Next, the Republican left isn’t just dodging criticism from the media. They agree with Obama’s policies. The Republican left loves Obamacare. They love amnesty, and they are too damned ignorant to understand what Islam really is.
