Obama's limited American experience

Former New York Mayor Rudy Giuliani may have a point.

But he badly overstated the case when he questions President Barack Obama's love of America.

Still, the outspoken one-time GOP presidential hopeful struck a nerve among Obama supporting progressives in the media, whose job in modern America is to spring to Obama's defense no matter what.

I don't know if Giuliani overstated his case. I think he could have said that most of us unabashedly love America. Obama, if he loves America, is embarrassed to say so. Most of us viscerally love our country. Obama doesn't have an emotional attachment to anything beyond himself.

There is NO American thread in his fabric

(Don't make me explain that again)

The Kenyan-born Arab, the ILLEGAL ALIEN IN CHIEF, IS the United States GREATEST ENEMY.
He truly is "COLLAPSING THE SYSTEM".

An update, if you haven't seen it on Fox News, already.

Ok, put yourself into this position.

Your mom gives you a foreign name, divorces the foreign dad, and a couple years later....hooks up with another foreign guy.

You get dragged off to some Pacific isle, where you pretend to be a insider and non-American, but you really can’t assimilate to the isle or their society.

You then get dragged off to Hawaii where you stay with Grandma because Mom and her lifestyle is so screwed up. Grandpa’s best buddy is some hyped up communist guy who talks negative stuff on the US daily. By the end of high school....you smoke enough pot that you don’t remember much but somehow you graduate.

You end up at some Pacific-coast college where it’s mostly ultra-rich kids. Then you go onto Columbia where it’s mostly ultra-rich kids. Then later, you end up with a Ivy-league school. It’s not about limited American experience....it’s about a kid who mostly pretends to be American, but doesn’t really know what it all requires or means.

Zucerberg is bought and paid for by the administration. He hands over FB info to them on a daily basis by givingbthem unfettered access. Talk to anyone at NSA; they won’t deny it.

You have basically summed up the Barrack Obama experience and what makes me laugh about it is how he has tried in the past to pump up his poor man's creds. How many times has he told us that his Mom was on food stamps? His Grandmother was a President of a bank for crying out loud, his mother held a doctorates degree, his Kenyan father held a masters degree in Economics from Harvard and held a high ranking economics position in the Kenyan government and his step father Lilo Sortero seemed as if he was well off and provided for his family amply. If she was on food stamps, it just proves to me that she was scamming the system.

One last little tidbit from the wikipedia article on Lilo Sortero:

"During their years in Indonesia, Dunham became increasingly interested in the country's culture, while Soetoro became more interested in Western culture, and their relationship was in conflict over differing values."

This basically tells me that he liked America and what it represented and she didn't. Like mother, like son...

Yet America’s been very, very good to Obama. Too bad he’s not grateful.

I listened to this kid for the first time this morning.
He’s right. But, if you think he will have influence on Obama’s black supporters just because the speaker has “enhanced melanin”, I don’t think that’s going to happen.

First of all, his speech patterns and use of the English language indicate he’s been properly educated, has parents who care about education, and cares about it himself. This is “acting white”, and will be rejected as a “sellout” or an “oreo”.
