“I do not believe, and I know this is a horrible thing to say, but I do not believe that the president loves America,” Giuliani said during the dinner at the 21 Club, a former Prohibition-era speakeasy in midtown Manhattan. “He doesn’t love you. And he doesn’t love me. He wasn’t brought up the way you were brought up and I was brought up through love of this country.” (Politico)Oh no, Rudy. Barack loves you. He loves you deeply. Just not that way.
Wayne Barrett on what Rudy knows about love and the way he was brought up, which was not like you and me and Barack. Though it probably had something in common with some of the guys at the dinner. (H/t BooMan.) See also His Rudeness.
Update 2/20:
“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,” Mr. Giuliani said in the interview. “This isn’t racism. This is socialism or possibly anti-colonialism.” (Times)I'm sorry, you're denying you're a racist but admitting to possible socialism or even the dreaded anti-colonialism? Or you're defending Obama against charges of racism ("Some of my best parents are white")? Or you're an octogenarian Palin spitting out dogwhistle words? Alert! Alert! Impending syntax collapse!
