The hate Bush, hate America claims are just Ann Coulter wacko, its right wing political entertainment.

When a company board sacks a CEO do they hate the company? Heck no! They think the CEO is not doing the best that can be done for the company. When employees are dissatisfied with company leaders or managers it is often the same thing. They fear that management is tanking the company and their jobs with it.

The argument about a united front in the face of a dangerous foe has some merit, but our society is WAY to open (thank goodness) to effectively obtain that, so we just have to deal with that fact. After all, freedom of expression is the most valued attribute of the democracy we are trying to export. So how in the heck can the proponents of spreading democracy to the ME bitch about expression of dissent in the USA?
