But I'd also call many "conservatives" anti-American, such as Pat Buchanan and others who continue to trash our president during time of war.

Huh?..."anti-American"? Buchanan is certainly anti-neocon, but so are lots of conservatives (count me in on that). Buchanan was also against the Iraq war, and was up front about his concerns and disagreements with that policy.

Straight forwardly stating one's opinion.....how the heck do you arrive at anti-Americanism from such an American endevor?

The problems Bush is having now are not the fault of the critiques of the Buchanans of the right....perhaps the biggest clue to problem's root can be found by watching the disembling of the pro-war neo-cons as they attempt to put a lot of distance between themselves and their neo-con-artistry.

Hey...have you seen Richard Perle anywhere these days?....He seems to be hiding from his stink.

I just read an article by Pat where he refers to the Civil War as "Mr. Lincoln's war" and suggests that we never should have fought it. This, combined with what I believe is a streak of anti-semitism and a lot of other statements he's made about Iraq, lead me to believe that he is anti-American--at least anti the America I believe in.

But perhaps I'm making a mistake, perhaps the same mistake that Ann Coulter is making.
