Rudy Giuliani: Fine, Obama loves America — but he lacks 'moral clarity'
Rudy Giuliani is walking back his claim that President Obama doesn't love America, writing in a Wall Street Journal op-ed that he "didn't intend to question President Obama's motives or the content of his heart." However, the former New York City mayor added, he still believes Obama is undercutting the nation's morale by talking about its failures.
Giuliani's clarification comes a few days after he attributed Obama's worldview to the "influence of communism and socialism."
