Gov. Walker says he doesn't know if Obama loves his country

WASHINGTON (AP) — Republican Gov. Scott Walker of Wisconsin says he doesn't know whether President Barack Obama loves America.

The possible 2016 White House candidate says he's not qualified to judge Obama's patriotism — he's never asked the president about it.

Earlier in the week, former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani said at fundraiser for Walker that Obama doesn't love his country.

Walker — who's in Washington for a weekend meeting of governors — tells The Associated Press: "You should ask the president what he thinks about America."

Walker also said, "I've never asked him so I don't know."

What a sleazy slime ball. Why'd you get kicked out of college, Walker?
