"The existence or non-existence of those events does not negate the accuracy of the labels. An America hater is an America hater whether we're greeted with flowers or not." You just don't get it, do you? Let me explain. The REASON you labeled us "America haters" is precisely because we questioned the silly spin about how invading Iraq was the right thing to do and how it would turn out so well. Now that it turns out we were right and you were wrong, do you think we questioned because we "hated" America and wished it to fail, or do you think we questioned because we're Americans, we love our country and we saw the dangers more clearly than you did? Or maybe you think it's a hateful act in this country to question a course of action that will cost thousands of casualties, cost hundreds of billions of dollars and critically harm the interests of the nation of America for at least a generation? Don't fall back on dogmatic personal attacks using "hate America" labels when the facts have shown that you were wrong and those you accused of seeing it differently based on "hate" actually saw it differently based on a clearer analysis of the facts.
