None is which is relevant to the central question of this thread, which is whether liberals hate the president.




Well, obviously some do, I won't deny that. And there are some that don't. I don't know any percenatges, but I know for a fact that not all liberals hate the president. They might not agree with him and his policies, but that's not the same as actually hating George W. Bush as a person.

Call it a cop-out answer if you will, but anybody who knows me well should remember that I try to avoid blanket statements and stereotyping. So I'm not going to go around denouncing everybody from a certain group just because I don't like a select few. I've given up on trying to encourage others to think along these lines because it always gets ugly when I do, so I'll just "lead by example" (for lack of a better term).

So the answer is some liberals do hate the president, and some liberals don't.

And to be honest, it's their right to hate him if they want to. Just as we have the right to hate anybody we feel like hating. I understand it's tough when someone knocks someone you root for or look up to - I hate it when people diss my favorte actors or writers or whatever - but that's the nature of being a politician, or even a public figure in general. You make yourself a target, and if you do or say something that people don't agree with, they don't like you for it.
