I think that the word hate is overused when people describe someone's attitude toward or criticism of a President. Hate is a strong word and I just don't believe that it accrues to most people who ideologically oppose the Presient's views even when they are vociferous in doing so.

However, I am sorely disappointed in those, as DT points out, "who are on the right [and who] are talking nonsense about death panels, etc. when it comes to proposed health care reform. I was just as disappointed when many on this Board posted that "the government" was taking over the auto industry and the banks.
