You are just wrong.

They don't want to see Bush lose, they think he has already lost. That's a little different. I don't think anyone WANTED him to lose, because that meant all the money and lives were wasted. They can't just cut off funding to the troops- there has to be a plan to get them home, and you can't starve them while you do that- that really WOULD be a failure to support the troops, but you see Nadine, they don't fail to support them, they just don't agree with your vision. That might make them wrong, but it doesn't make them against America. I am amazed you really believe they aren't rooting for America. Truly, you do still have the power to surprise me. I would never think the conservatives weren't rooting for America, no matter how much they might (imo) trash the constitution, the country or our image abroad. I would think- "Sure, what they are doing is truly vile, but I'm sure they think what they are advocating is for the best". I am sure you, Nadine, believe what you advocate is for the best. You probably even believe saying this kind of trash is for the best, but I think it's divisive, and ugly, and it's not going to do a damn bit of good, but it will piss the "other side" off, and lose you all the centrists who might have paid attention to you, had you not just labeled all who disagree with you as people who don't root for America.

Get a grip Nadine. And you call Canyondweller insulting. Take a look at your own posts and the assumptions they contain.

"Many of their supporters are not rooting for America anyway."

All you're "rooting" for is Israel, Nadine. You just love having the Great Satan quagmired in the Little Satan's neighborhood. You'd LOVE it if we resumed the draft and invaded Iran. You'd like it if we blew the crap out of every Arab country in the nieghborhood too and seized their oil. Take the Muslim threat head on, and wipe it off the face of the Earth.

Think how SAFE Israel would be then!
