The following quote was taken from Opinion Journal
When you read of this hate pledge one can't help but form a picture in their mind of the author screaming at their monitor while they wrote it, tin foil hat pulled roguishly to one side, Hillary 08 buttons bouncing on the lapel, designer coffee close at hand with extra espresso because they like to live on the edge. This is followed by running to the corner coffee shop to tell friends about their blog and how they are just really not afraid to be agressive and confrontational especially since they have started with their new therapist and the pilates class that has a lot of really hot people at it.
Yep a real nut cruncher I am sure.
"That's the title of a Daily Kos post by "coolobserver":
Among many reasons, I hate America for the near-extermination and subsequent oppression of its indigenous population. I hate it for its role in the African slave trade and for dropping atomic bombs on civilians. I hate its control of institutions like the United Nations, World Bank, International Monetary Fund, and World Trade Organization. I hate it for propping up brutal dictators like Suharto, Pinochet, Duvalier, Hussein, Marcos, and the Shah of Iran. I hate America for its unconditional support for Israel. I hate its bogus two-party system, its one-size-fits-all culture, and its income gap. I could go on for pages but I'll sum up with this: I hate America for being a hypocritical white supremacist capitalist patriarchy.
He also refers to people who are offended by these views as "so-called patriots." It's almost enough to make you question his patriotism."
