Typically I only assign infallibility to gods and kings, but if you think you're deserving then so be it.

Hate America? Your words not mine.
Here ya go http://www.rhlschool.com/reading.htm

It's not a hate thing its a blame thing. Typical of the Left it seems you start with the assumption that America is first to blame for any international strife and then begin an analytical process from there. Unless of course in the case a Republican administration is in power then the process remains frozen at blame America first.

This really has nothing to do with Democrats and Republicans.

The Left was against Clinton for his support of globalization and free trade.

It has everything to do with the notion that because America does something it must be good or right. The believe that your own %$%$%$%$ doesn't stink...

But it's precisely the awareness that our tremendous influence in the world can in fact do great harm that has afforded our country so much success. Certainly this has been forgotten at times, and regardless of our intentions the lessons shouldn't be ignored.

It's not about blame, it's about reality.
