Hating President Bush has become a national pastime. Baseball is a national pastime. "Hating" Bush is practiced by a small, albeit shrill, group of naysayers. Kind of like saying tiddlywinks is a national pastime or an olympic event.

I agree.

I think if we drag out the red/blue map from the 2000 election, the Bush areas then, are still the Bush areas now.
It is - as you said - a small group raising all the ruckus, aided and abeted by 3 TV networks and a handful of liberal commentators.
If there is one thing I learned in 15 years in the Radio business, it's that when people say "everyone is DOING it"...what they mean is "everyone is HEARING it..." from the media. Of course, we used that line to overcome sales objections when we sold advertising and the client said "word of mouth" was the best way to advertise...but it works with news as well.
IMHO, anyone worried about not being "cool" if the "don't hate Bush", is a liberal anyway...they are totally obsessed with "coolness". Mature people do not let the level of their "cool image" conflict with what is best for themselves or their country.
