When San Francisco supervisors team up with antiwar groups to try to ban the US Navy's Blue Angels.. If you can differentiate between anti-war and anti-American, even when you instinctively use the appropriate words, what else can I say...

Has nothing to do with "hating America" but everything to do with hating what America is and has become. For the most part, I think people on the left would like to have more government assistance. They would like to see less money spent on the military and more money spent on entitlements. Less talk radio with its "radical ideas" and more central govt media control. "Free" healthcare and a higher minimum wage. Not hating America so much just hating its capitalistic system. And they are getting more vocal now that the right has talk radio and some prominent thinkers. Look what has happened to Union membership in the last couple of decades. Losing the battle for minimum wages and seeing big business succeed without their precious unions is driving liberals literally mad. Liberals like us to think that they are more compassionate and that they care more, but really from what I see in my many liberal friends is a desire to be taken care of. A more self centered sense of entitlement. No........I don't think they hate America.......I think they just want their America to be something much different than my America.
