You know, it is really scary being an American abroad right now.really scary. Guys calling for death to all americans found outside the US..living right here in this city. I can't speak in public incase someone hears my voice. And yes I think Bush has a lot to do with that ..but just get it the hell over with already so I can have a life.

The right wing media tries to make it seem like Bush is America. If you don't like Bush, then you don't like America. Everything is very simple, black and white, small words. It's simple to keep the talk radio crowd in line by telling them that any criticism of Bush's foreign or domestic policy is a direct attack on America. They would have you believe that Bush is America and America is Bush.
Of course, when Clinton was president, everything was just the opposite. It was patriotic to bash him, call him names, and talk about his penis all day and all night.
It's surprising to me that people fall for this stuff.
