Sen. Barbara Boxer (D-CA) responded late Monday to former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani’s accusation that President Barack Obama doesn’t “love America” by highlighting his administration’s accomplishments, including the killing of Osama bin Laden.
Giuliani and many other prominent Republicans have faulted Obama for refusing to call the Islamic State terror group ‘Islamic.’ The retiring senator took a shot across the bow at the ex-mayor in a tweet reminding him that the Obama administration was responsible for finally taking out the elusive al-Qaeda leader:
Hey Rudy, why don’t you ask Osama bin Laden if President Obama loves America?

Boxer went on to goad Giuliani by touting the President’s health care and job creation efforts:
Hey Rudy, why don’t you ask one of the 11 million people who now have affordable health care if President Obama loves America?

Hey Rudy, why don’t you ask the auto workers whose jobs were saved if President Obama loves America?

Hey Rudy, why don’t you ask the millions getting jobs after the worst recession since the Great Depression if Obama loves America?
