jclalor 12 #1 February 19, 2015 Instead of going down in history as "America's Mayor" during 911, he's gonna go down as a babbling old bigot. Scott Walker should clarify his own views, he sure does looks like a coward. http://www.cnn.com/2015/02/19/politics/rudy-giuliani-obama-america-love/index.html Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Andy9o8 2 #3 February 19, 2015 ryoderGiuliani has jumped the shark. Giuliani did this for the same reason people like, for example, Rush Limbaugh or Michael Moore do it: deliberately, for they know that it will put them semi-virally in the news for about 24 hours, in a sub-world in which publicity is the stock in trade, and any publicity is good publicity. He's trying to re-establish his bona fides of relevancy, probably because he wants to make some money. Maybe he wants to re-enter politics, or maybe he's about to write a book, or maybe he wants to make himself attractive for a TV pundit gig, or maybe he needs to increase his fee-value on the speaker's circuit. Or maybe, like any self-respecting bunny-boiler, he's tired of being ignored. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Or maybe, like any self-respecting bunny-boiler, he's tired of being ignored. I think he did it more because he knows the audience he is speaking to. There's a lot of people out there that seem to actually believe that Obama "wants to destroy America." That's he's really a Muslim, that he isn't an American citizen, all that crap. We even had someone post on here a week or so ago that he felt Obama was an "ISIL Sympathizer." I have a FB friend that shares just about every negative article on Obama that he can find. Brietbart, WMD, Blaze, Western Journalism, all those kind of "Extreme Right Wing" fearmongers. Of course, any negative story about Scott Walker (gov here in WI) is a 'liberal hit piece that is nothing but lies and fabrication.' I don't like Obama. I didn't vote for him, and wouldn't if he could run again. But the level of hatred towards him is disturbing. I have my theories that much of it is racial. Mostly because the hatred seems to be coming from "old, white guys." Who grew up in a time when racism was perfectly acceptable. They won't openly admit it, and for some of them, it may not be the reason. But it sure seems to be."There are NO situations which do not call for a French Maid outfit."

RonD1120 62 #15 February 20, 2015 When did you ever hear someone say that they loved someone or something so much that they wanted to fundamentally change them or it? You love someone or something for what they or it are/is. BHO does not love America and its heritage.Look for the shiny things of God revealed by the Holy Spirit.

You love someone or something for what they or it are/is. BHO does not love America and its heritage. So if a wife says to her husband who is morbidly obese that she wants to help him change his eating and exercise habits so that he can become healthy and live longer it is because she doesn't love him and his heritage? When a drug counselor (something that you claim to be an expert on) tries to help a person get off of drugs and better themselves it is because they hate them and don't want them to get better?Time flies like an arrow....fruit flies like a banana Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Andy9o8 2 #17 February 20, 2015 RonD1120When did you ever hear someone say that they loved someone or something so much that they wanted to fundamentally change them or it? Next of kin, significant others and close friends do that to/for each other all the time. What world are you living in? RonD1120BHO does not love America and its heritage. People often don't know what they don't know. Your weak trolling aside, I don't think you realize just how far out on the marginal fringes of American society you exist compared to Obama. The fact that you surround yourself with like-minded mutual enablers is immaterial to the truth of that point. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Doesn't mean said intended rescuers don't try it, though, or that their motivation is not one primarily of love (in addition to not being able to stand being around the patient any more).
