Here's reasoning, though: The Republican Party has mastered the art of tearing to pieces anyone foolish enough to challenge its hegemony (Did John Kerry bleed enough for them Purple Hearts? Cum-awn now! etc. etc. etc.) and, if that doesn't work, well they just steal that lil ol election, as in Florida 2000 and, very possibly, Ohio 2004 -- but let's not go there, right? No, so unseemly.
So the Republicans have a vice-grip on public office. And few Republican politicians would dare cross the Bible-bangers. Indeed, their sycophancy is audible in every utterance God-help-us.
That's Power.
As for "spewing anti American hate", to me the bushbots and those who guide them are killing America, at least the America so many of us used to admire.
You can carry on in that vein all you want, brien, but anti-Americanism has flourished across the globe under Bush. Ever think about that?
