What Rudy Giuliani did this week was stupid.
What Scott Walker did ought to disqualify him as a serious presidential contender......
And Walker, just a few seats away, said . . . nothing. Asked the next morning on CNBC about Giulianis words, the presidential aspirant was spineless: The mayor can speak for himself. Im not going to comment on what the President thinks or not. He can speak for himself as well. Ill tell you, I love America. There are plenty of people, Democrat, Republican, independent, and in between who love this country.
But did he agree with Giuliani? Im in New York, Walker demurred. Im used to people saying things that are aggressive out there....

So when does Hussein have to deny the things which his own staffers said about Netanyahu?
Just as with the evolution question, the ‘uneducated Midwest hick’ stymied them.
He denied them the opportunity to have weeks and week of headlines castigating Walker.
It infuriates them that he is so much smarter than they are.
Well, we know there really aren’t many investigative reporters [if any] working for these rags.
Somebody pls call the Wambulance !!
They figured he’d say something PC and then the Tea Party would turn away from him. Instead he said something very smart and that made them even madder.
Rudy was correct to point out that Bozo’s record speaks for itself.
If Dana doesn’t “get” that, his remaining grey cells must be very lonely.
Rudy hit the mark! Hope he doesn’t back down..the left is going nuts but don’t have anything to prove he does love America. They’ll just try to smear, bully Giuliani.
The pearl-clutching over Guiliani is ludicrous. Guiliani is right on about the mullah in the White House and everyone knows it. Pretending not to doesn’t help anyone.
Scott called Rudy aggressive? Because he’s from New York? Not exactly full-throated support.
Milbank reminds me of the draft evading pot smoking hippies from my growing up years who called our troops cowards and cheered for the North Vietnamese.
OK, OK...
for no other reason than he frustrates leftist attempts to do their usual dirty deeds,
he should be our nominee.
Walker is skating on some pretty thin ice here. First, he “punts” on a Creation question, and now he won’t be straight up and give an honest remark about Rudy’s Obama comments.
We need a candidate who will courageously and unapologetically stand up for conservative principles. At the very least, we need a candidate who is not afraid to “tell it like it is”. Walker is not that candidate.
Why turn what Giuliani had to say into an attack on Walker? This country is going nuts.
I hope Guiliani’s statement is the crack in the dam.
I’m sure that many other prominent folks believe the same,
but they are afraid of being marginalized for saying so.
Obama despises America, and he should have been called on it seven years ago. Bob
Hey Millbank ... Why would someone want to fundamentally transform something they love?
It is foolish to provide an honest answer to a dishonest question.
Scott Walker is smart enought to “punt” when reporters ask “gotcha” questions which do not seek truth or enlightenment, but rather the advancement of the left’s agenda.
Walker is playing the long game. He’ll feel some short term pain from both the left and the right for not being fully candid, but he has avoided providing a sound bite that will haunt him forever.
Where was Milbank when Obama said the terrorism problem was not caused by Islam, but it was Christians and Christianity that is the world’s evil?
