No we don't love them, except maybe in a vaguely Christian sense in one of our mellowed out moods when we are particularly satisfied with President Bush, and feel forgiving. Rare for me with these folks.

These are the same people who brought down the Roman empire, and every great nation so far. They love their comforts to be provided by the taxpayer so that they can spend more time practicing their sexual perversions and thinking wild fantasies of an alternate reality where they are SOMEBODY: powerful, rich, and respected for the vast TOLERANCE and overall goodness.

I don't hate them, but I do despise and loathe them.

"We sit by and watch the Barbarian, we tolerate him; in the long stretches of peace we are not afraid. We are tickled by his irreverence, his comic inversion of our old certitudes and our fixed creeds refreshes us; we laugh. But as we laugh, we are watched by large and awful faces from beyond: and on these faces there is no smile." -- William Buckley quoting Belloc"
