Big Guy Posted February 22, 2015 Report Posted February 22, 2015 Looks like Rudy Giuliani has thrown a wrench into the American Republican presidential race. Rudy recently stated that "Obama does not love America" and later implied he was brought up as a communist. The Republican contenders are tap dancing around the issue; http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2015/02/21-scott-walker-obama-love-america_n_6726960.html These American campaigns are getting more and more bitter. The Presidency, the highest office in the land deserves to be held in respect lest it undermine the power of the USA. By attacking Obama these guys are attacking the system and the chair. They imply that Americans are pretty stupid if they elect someone who does not love his country and who is a communist. The Republican contenders are now between the rock and the hard place. How do you go after Obama without demeaning the position which they all covert? Only in America! Quote Note - For those expecting a response from Big Guy: I generally do not read or respond to posts longer then 300 words nor to parsed comments.
GostHacked Posted February 22, 2015 Report Posted February 22, 2015 Another terrible candidate. Quote
Shady Posted February 22, 2015 Report Posted February 22, 2015 Rudy isn't a candidate. And I'm not sure what he says has anything to do with anybody else, other than it's a game the media likes to play. But only with Republicans. Quote

How do you go after Obama without demeaning the position which they all covert? Only in America! Huh? Um, you criticize his policies. What's the issue. And the only in America? You mean like a certain Liberal candidate claiming that Harper would have troops in the streets of Canadian cities? Or that he has a "secret" agenda? Quote
bush_cheney2004 Posted February 22, 2015 Report Posted February 22, 2015 Rudy isn't a candidate. And I'm not sure what he says has anything to do with anybody else, other than it's a game the media likes to play. But only with Republicans. Agreed...a distinction without a difference, as criticisms of President Bush were welcomed and encouraged...on both sides of the border. Quote Economics trumps Virtue.
Big Guy Posted February 22, 2015 Author Report Posted February 22, 2015 (edited) Shady - if you google "Only in America" you will find the phrase associated with songs, poems, movies, etc extoling the unique aspects of America that make it the best country in the world (sic). I finished my post with that phrase to show the irony of this greatest country in the world being led by a person who does not love his country. I assume the irony is lost on some people. My bad. While Rudy is not a candidate, the candidates are each being asked their opinion of his statements. Any answer is a no win for any candidate.

WWWTT Posted February 22, 2015 Report Posted February 22, 2015 Looks like Rudy Giuliani has thrown a wrench into the American Republican presidential race. Rudy recently stated that "Obama does not love America" and later implied he was brought up as a communist. The Republican contenders are tap dancing around the issue; Sounds like business as usual to me. Communist China's economy is now the #1 and the US is in the #2 weaker position. And it looks like the US is losing ground to India! Probably after the next couple of elections by 2024, the US will have probably slipped behind India into #3 world economy position and will be only slightly ahead of the likes of Indonesia, Brazil and Russia. I personally don't care how much the US wants to shoot itself in the foot. My problem is that we can't pack up Canada and move closer to other neighbors. South Korea now enjoys a stronger economy than Canada due to their proximity to China. WWWTT Quote Maple Leaf Web is now worth $720.00! Down over $1,500 in less than one year!

Smallc Posted February 22, 2015 Report Posted February 22, 2015 South Korea now enjoys a stronger economy than Canada due to their proximity to China. When their per capita GDP matches our's, you might be on to something. Quote

On Guard for Thee Posted February 22, 2015 Report Posted February 22, 2015 Agreed...a distinction without a difference, as criticisms of President Bush were welcomed and encouraged...on both sides of the border. Criticisms certainly didnt need any encouragement, Bush supplied ample fodder all on his own. Quote
