re: Excuse me, but why are you so hung up on hatred?

It's the "attack the messenger" strategy. You "hate" the war, as many of us do, so you point out the costs. They can't argue with the facts, so they equate "hating" the war to "hating America". It's just another form of the "America, Love It or Leave It" bumper sticker syndrome from the Vietnam era.

Don't let them put you on the defensive. The true patriot is the person that continually questions the actions of the country, and that is sorely needed right now. The "just go along with the program" folks add nothing.
