Why do Muslims hate us?

I was listening to NPR this morning. Here is a discussion I found that almost made me drive my car into the freeway divider. You can hear the audio on NPR here. Democratic candidates answered the now age old question...Why do Muslims hate us? Here is their genius at work. Fortunately "HOTAIR" already spotted this gem and I was able to take the statements from their site. This may all be true for the rest of the world and how they view the U.S., but it has nothing to do with how the actual Muslim world views the United States. I was waiting for one of them to say "because we protect Israel who runs an apartheid state" but I guess they held back...a little. Who knew that if Bush had not been elected Muslims wouldn't hate us and gas would be low and property taxes wouldn't be as high ...OH and there would be no more high school dropouts and...Heck If it had not been for Bush being elected gay people would want to move to Iran!

“Because we are trusted so little” - Joe Biden Because of “the bullying, selfish, abusive behavior” of President Bush and his administration. - John Edwards “John’s point is right, but I want to broaden it a little. If you were a Muslim overseas listening to Rudy Giuliani saying they want to come over here and kill you, you would get the impression that we don’t want to talk.”- Barack Obama “This has been a vacuum for a long time. We don’t know their culture.” - Chris Dodd
