The Democratic Party... America's symbol of hatred.

You may be right. Some moderates and liberals do come close to hating
Bush and Co for what they've done to America, and the divisive
politics they've brought to the table.

OTOH, it would appear the fringe groups that make up a big part of
the Republican coalition indeed hate other Americans because they are
different and don't fit the born again Christian, neocon vision of
what the correct American should be. If you are gay, black, liberal,
female, non-born again, poor, etc, hatred is heaped upon you by this
ultra-right wing group.

Bush by no means won any kind of a majority in the last election. He
should have moderated his extremist policies to take into account the
majority of voters who did not vote for him. Instead, he chose the
extreme route, attacking anyone who didn't blindly agree with his
obviously disasterious actions. Bush and Co can only blame themselves
for the extreme animosity towards the current amdimistration.
