she will not be around to teach her grandchildren to hate America.

B.S.

"It is both possible and moral, to love one’s country and hate its government."
--Walter E. Williams

"Patriotism means to stand by the country. It does not mean to stand by the president or any public official, save exactly to the degree he himself stands by the country."
--Theodore Roosevelt

Absolutely agree with Mr. Williams and President Roosevelt, but Mrs. Pulaski doesn't mention America but once, in a negative fashion.

She describes herself as a political junkie, who loves freedom more than she ever loved her husband, or her children, and she speaks lovingly and concerned of her grandchildren. America is pretty far down the line of things she loves, so much so that she doesn't once mention her love of country once in her diatribe. She loved politics, and after a lifetime of speaking her mind freely, being critical of the system, after a lifetime of experiencing first-hand a political system that allows any citizen to be involved, she is critical of the very system that allowed her the freedom to speak freely, and to be a participant in it.

If she loved America, she would have said so, she said everything else.
