% who disapprove of Bush's handling of the war -- 65.

% who believe he intentionally lied to us -- 55.

The people have lost the government's confidence, and can win it back only through redoubled efforts.

I can't stomach that title.. its not hating America.. its disapproving of Bush's extremely poor presidential abilities.

But yeah, I realize the Administration spin is they don't like 'America'.

Loving America is to Bush as Loving Jews is to Hitler.

Thus,

Treason is to Bush as white is to refined rice

and

what treason is, is to Bush as what freedom is to no dissent .

However,

Loving power is to Bush as loving money is to Cheney/Halliburton.

(I'm not sure of my logic here, but having fun. Twisted Evil )

I hate America because of all the illegal immigrants and racial tension in multiracial societies.

Read it and weep.

In the USA
Asians get A's
Whites get B's
Latins get C's & D's
Blacks get D's & F's

When the stuff hits the fan, the Blacks get guns and try to kills Asians and the Latins are always mad because they say they were here first and the country was stolen from them. Blacks ask themselves why they don't get A's. There is no provable answer and it drives everyone nuts.

Why should I tolerate illegal immigration? You can't answer that so you get mad and insult. Thats not a valid answer. Deal with it.

I never said I didn't understand the opinion. Trust me. I'm from the south and I see exactly what you are talking about all the time. We are chock full of illegals. I also wasn't trying to insult. I was just making a joke.

Yea, I should lighten up, huh? The stress even comes out here. I sit at my table and mumble and smoke and pace and type. I need to get out more.

Good point Tiger: circular reasoning; begging the question.

My impression is most patriots & "dissidents" largely take exception to AmeriKa's thoroughly corrupt / pork barrel gov't & overly aggressive foreign policy, NOT the nation & people themselves.

Time for a little house cleaning Wink

What I hate, and I do hate it, is lobbyists/special interest groups and their ability to give money/gifts/services to politicians. We really do have a government for sale in the US and the average red-state voter doesn't even care about it.

My least favorite group is the major pharmaceutical lobby. God, I wish they would all die horrible deaths.

That's what I hate about America. Crying or Very sad
