George, that is utter BS. There is absolutely no indication that he
hates his own country. Quit listening and reading only those right-wing
sites and start reading more of both sides.

There is plenty of evidence that he hates his own country, His wife even said
so and the man that Obama says was the "greatest influence" in his life, Rev.
Wright, has openly preached hatred of America. Don't tell me that this
didn't help mold Obama's thinking. It would have to.

Rev. Jeremiah A. Wright, the guy who gave up a student deferment to join
the Marines? The guy who got three White House letters of commendation
for his service, and went on to receive a Rockefeller Fellowship and
seven honorary doctorates? That guy?

George, stop acting like a simple-minded idiot. Wright doesn't hate this
country. He's angry at some of the things this country has done. His
anger is somewhat unproductive, but it's not hard to understand where
it's coming from.

Obama recognizes the same injustices, but has a much more practical and
productive approach to them. Mostly this difference is a generational
issue.

If you really can't see the world in terms more complex than "He said
something bad about America! He's a traitor!", then you should probably
do everyone a favor and not bother participating in our democracy,
because you don't understand the principles behind it.
