The whole "hating America" schtick is nothing more than an incredibly cynical way of shutting down criticism.

There is nothing more Un-American than the lie that you must accept your country as-is, faults and all, without license to offer so much as a shred of criticism. We do not have to choose between "status quo" and "worse". We can choose better.

If the time ever comes where "better" is truly not an option, then we will have fully transformed into the third world country that we've been so derisively invited to relocate to.
