Rudy Giuliani's latest comments about President Obama are likely to cause a new flap.
The former New York City mayor and 2008 Republican presidential candidate appeared to question the president's patriotism during a Wednesday night speech,
Politico is reporting.
"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 is quoted as saying. "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."
Giuliani's comments came during a private dinner on behalf of a likely 2016 Republican president candidate, Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker,
Politico reported: "With Walker sitting just a few seats away, Giuliani continued by saying that 'with all our flaws we're the most exceptional country in the world. I'm looking for a presidential candidate who can express that, do that and carry it out.'"
Obama has often discussed his loyalty and dedication to the United States, closing last month's State of the Union speech by saying "God bless this country we love."
