Giuliani: Obama under communist influence since age 9

Ex-New York City Mayor and former presidential hopeful Rudy Giuliani’s recent string of inflammatory remarks about President Barack Obama continued on Friday when he told the New York Post the president has been under communist influence since childhood.

“From the time he was 9 years old, he was influenced by Frank Marshall Davis, who was a communist,” Giuliani told the New York City tabloid, which has also devoted recent cover real estate to hammering Obama’s unwillingness to refer to the ISIS terror group as “Islamic extremists.”

Giuliani also saw fit to revive the debate over Obama’s former attendance at the Chicago church of Rev. Jeremiah Wright, which was a frequent conservative tactic from the 2008 campaign.

“He spent 17 years in the church of Jeremiah Wright, and this is the guy who said ‘God damn America, not God bless America … Obama never left that church,” Giuliani said. The former mayor had previously said Obama “doesn’t love” America the same way conservatives like him do and has claimed his remarks can’t be construed as racist because the president has “a white mother.”

Obama can't run anymore. No one in Congress will seek to impeach him. This is not about Obama; it's all been heard a thousand times before. It's about Giuliani and his need for attention. He can't possibly be contemplating another run for President so this must be a play to get into the picture somehow in a lesser capacity. He must really be desperate for a job.

They are about to be abandoned by the GOP as they pretend to be almost sane. Giuliani is becoming Teaparty dog meat (more so). He must be getting more speaking engagements easy to determine as steps up vile talk. Although well paid it must be a shitty life to surround yourself with the rabid ignorance of the far right for a living. It is mainly supply and demand.

Guiliani under Mob influence since age 9!

Since that IS the history of his father and grandfather before him! His father even served hard time!

Obama's grandfather stormed the beach at Normandy....but there's his "unpatriotic communistic un-American and you and me unloving" influence huh?

also. Maybe he is going to try for presidency again and there is a need in the republican party to say stupid remarks.

Both on tv and progressive radio news/talk shows, the people with a voice keep defending Obama's love for America and not informing their audience about Guiliani's brand of "love for America" as was described in detail in the NY Times article.
This clown should be deported to Bismark or something.
