    his wife has hated America

    One of the things I hate about America is that we are so tolerant of this kind of playground-level argument.

    If Michelle Obama had said "I have always been proud of America, even when our forces invaded Iraq after a spineless Congress enabled our idiot president to go adventuring abroad, but now I am even prouder of America, because people are voting in massive numbers for my husband who opposed the insanity from the get-go."

    Would that be alright with you? Would you now be ready to vote for Obama?

    Thought not.
