14. It Isn't Hate, It Is Resentment
Resentment for:

- Losing the election in 2000 and then urging Democrats to "get over it".

- Saying he was "a uniter, not a divider" and then undertaking the most divisive, class warfare in American history.

- Squandering the goodwill of the rest of the world after 9-11 with his arrogance, hubris and unilateralism.

- Saying tax breaks for the wealthy were needed because the economy was doing so well and we had a surplus, and then saying tax breaks for the wealthy were needed because the economy was doing so poorly.

- For trying to teach our children that we can "kill our way to peace".

- For taking us to war against an army that didn't even have boots in many cases and were using WWII vintage rifles against smart bomabs and Apache helicopters, all because he carried a grudge against their impotent dictator.

- For pushing legislation that forces a woman to carry a fetus inside her body that she may not want or that may not be viable.

For all these things, we resent this misguided and destructive man and his corrupt administration.
