Rudolph Giulianis hot off the press comments about President Barack Obama has proven the politician to be a delusional racist. While speaking in front of a New York fundraising crowd, he tried to deliver poignant commentary on Obamas apparent lack of patriotism, but instead said:
I do not believe, and I know this is a horrible thing to say, but I do not believe that the president loves America. He doesnt love you. And he doesnt love me. He wasnt brought up the way you were brought up and I was brought up, through love of this country.
These are such hateful words from the former Mayor of New York which are the complete opposite of the United We Stand mantra that his reprehensible reputation (back in 9/11/ 2001) was salvaged by. Instead of exercising a level of common decency when discussing the President so publicly, his recent behavior issues him VIP status to the Im Not Racist But Say Racist Things club. You know, the type of person that still doesnt believe a Black people can be well-spoken.
This is also the type of person who makes such passive aggressive statements towards people of other ethnicities, cultures and lifestyles, were beginning to wonder how Giuliani was raised? Hes 70-years-old. He earned his Americana badge during one of the most tragic eras of the United States9/11. The relics of a man who once stood for New York bravery was nowhere to be found in those defamatory comments and in fact has become more of a shadow of Americas Mayor for the last seven years.
A sea of complaints galloped his way the next day, since anyone with reading comprehension could feel the racist undertone of his comments. But his farcical outlook worsened when during a New York Times interview, Guiliani objected the notion of practicing racism due to the following reasons. Some people thought it was racist I thought that was a joke, since he was brought up by a White mother, a White grandfather, went to White schools and most of this he learned from White people. This isnt racism. This is socialism or possibly anti-colonialism. Anti-colonialism? Theres a reason why the founding fathers had a revolution.
Guiliani continues, You should be able to comment about the president of the United States without being accused of racism when you disagree with him. Wasnt his previous explanation that Obama was primarily raised by the White side of his lineage? So Black or families of color teach their children to hate America? What are you talking about?
Giuliani, who ran for the Republican ticket in 2008, was rejected by his own party but still wants to be seen as a GOP team player in singing the same old song about Barack Obama. Hes held a grudge towards Obama since 2008, joining hotheads like Donald Trump and Ted Cruz, always adamant to prove that Obama doesnt deserve or couldnt possibly be an American.
Absolutely nothing about Giulianis original comments even leaned close to being of comedic. What Giuliani did was mask his personal opinions and hatred towards Obama as quasi-political revelations. What would possess him to make such terrible comments and think he was enlightening us? What he did inform us on was how acrimonious he is in the head and its starting to seriously cloud attempts at justified critical judgment.
Guiliani disrespected our President. Hes guilty of the very thing hes accusing Obama forif you hate our president, you hate America. He could at least choose to be civil. From the State of the Union address to sudden press conferences on national and world events, Obama has always vouched for America as a country that deserve to be great because its shown in the past that it can be. Since when does knocking down the President qualify as true American pride Giuliani?
On Fox & Friends (of course), the same day as the NYT interview, Giuliani attempted to clear up what he meant, but it still felt lopsided, Well, first of all, Im not questioning his patriotism. Hes a patriot, Im sure. What Im saying is, in his rhetoric, I very rarely hear the things that I used to hear Ronald Reagan say, the things that I used to hear Bill Clinton say about how much he loves America.
We all love America, especially those of us born and raised here. It is our home. But Giuliani doesnt acknowledge two things: When Clinton was president, America had its tragedies, but it was in such great financial shape, the American dream was re-born even if you worked at Starbucks. Who didnt love America in 1996?
As for Reagan, he chose to pretend that everything was okay while the crack era nearly enveloped New York City and apartheid needed his support, which he waved goodbye at. Of course Reagan loved America, from the walls of his gilded life. When it comes to Obamas presidency in the era of ISIS, Ferguson, the capture of Osama bin Laden and massacres in France, America doesnt need perpetual love letters. It needs leadership. We want answers. We want to be respected for doing whats right and look like a sorry population that believes progression has already been made.
To further show that Giuliani has a dangerously racist agenda to his commentary as of late, today in an interview with Geraldo Rivera, because of course, he slammed Obama for having a Ferguson-related press conference, but not immediately having one for ISIS killing hostages, I find it extraordinarily offensive that when a group of Coptic Christians are slaughtered, he doesnt hold a press conference, but he holds a press conference when a man who stole a convenience store was shot by a cop. He holds a press conference for that.
Does anything please this guy? He complains that Obama isnt patriotic enough to his liking but when the President discussed national issues on the home front to the American people, Giuliani swerves and says he then doesnt care about American overseas. Obama had already spoken on ISIS, choosing love over hate and differentiating those who are of Muslim faith and non-violent and extreme terrorists hiding under the extreme Islamic title.
This week, Giuliani, louder than ever before, spoke from a soapbox of White male privilege which is non-conducive to the increasing melting pot that is America. It is unfortunate that in trying to paint Barack Obama as the bad guy of politics, he made himself more than eligible as the least un-American person in America right now.

Oooh, they called him the ‘R’ word. He’s in trouble now!
Is Shardae Jobson a modern day moron who doesn’t know it?
Any criticism of the king means you are a racist.
Not loving America is about not loving America. Only people who love America can identify those who don’t love America.
Examples: George Washington loved America. Benedict Arnold did not love America. It’s as simple as that.
Rudy is a wacist and don’t even know it. How sad.

If he doesn’t know it, wouldn’t that prove he’s not a racist?
A racist is someone who is winning an argument with a Leftist.
It helps if the target of the Leftist is white and the Leftist is a Person of Color, but this isn’t necessary.
Rudy Giuliani is hated by the Left, ergo he is a racist. But then aren’t we all.
Oh good grief. Who is this little girl and who has inflated her teenage ego so terribly?
So, the large population of people in this world who do NOT love America, now constitutes a “race”.
Most curious order of taxonomy. Because the ethnic characteristics of people who do not love America runs to a wide range of genotypes and skin pigmentation. How is a Siberian to be grouped with, say, a person from Indo-China, or Argentina, or Madagascar?
And we all know “Islam” is not a race, any way, shape or manner.
Good grief this crap gets so old. If Obama wasn’t half black this would not be an issue. If anybody complains about Obamass in any way it is raciest ... BS. This is just a ploy by the left to silence the right. Again I say ... BS.
Anytime I hear the word “raciest”, I substitute the phrase (in its long form) “BS” and life goes on.
No, Rudy is one of the very few sane, public men speaking the truth.
Rudy is right. F that wench.
What’s really racist is to vote for someone based solely on the color of his skin. Which is exactly what Shanequa, or Shardae or whatever the hell her name is surely did. If Bozo was all white she wouldn’t give a crap about him! She and her ilk are the real racists!!
Of course..go against Obama and your automatically a racist..that is how they do things when they want to shut down the conversation..I really don’t understand why the left is so upset about this, leftists hate America, they all do..Ive never met a leftist who loves America, they all despise it, so why the long face
Is always is.
Beat me to it.
