1. Ah, see, it all depends on what you define as 'freedom'
When Chimpenfurher talked about 'freedom,' he was talking about the 'freedom' of US corporations to exploit countries for their resources and press the interests of Pax Americana. He wasn't talking about individual freedoms. Neocons and their enablers HATE individual freedoms.

2. That was never true.
They hated us because of perceived wrongs, whether real or imagined. And they hated us because they hated us. Hate doesn't need reason. That whole freedom bullshit was jingoism.

4. The problem with this that I see IS
not one news commentator has asked any of the tea bags or the stupid republicans JUST WHAT FREEDOMS they have lost under Obama. And then ask them what FREEDOMS they gave up under Bush.
