When Barack Obama's "bitter" comments came out prior to the Pennsylvania primary, a number of conservatives were outraged about the elite comments Obama had and how out of touch he was with the common people and questioned whether he respected the people.
But the people who have the real contempt for the American people is the Republican Party. One only has to look at Florida. It was bad enough when Jeb Bush's administration helped determine the outcome of the 2000 presidential election in favor of his brother, now the state has passed a series of laws that effectively limits efforts to register people to vote.
The New York Times is reporting that the League of Women's Voters of Florida sued state election officials on Monday to challenge a law that fines voter registration groups for losing registration forms or returning them late.
This, along with the Supreme Court's decision on Indiana's Voter ID bill that deals with non-existent voter fraud, and Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia comment on the courts' gift of the presidency to George Bush - "get over it. It's so old by now" shows the contempt conservatives have for Americans.
Scalia and others may pretend that their actions are based on laws and concern for laws, in reality their actions are little more than rationalizations for self serving actions.
Rather than questioning if Rev. Wright loves American, maybe one should ask why the right hates America and Americans.
