Couldn't have said it better.
Also, if there's anything I hate more than religious nutjobs, it's patriotic Americans. I mean, it's one thing to believe that someone of another faith or no faith at all might cause you some trouble. But it's another thing to believe that someone is a terrorist and/or wants to kill the President just because they're aware that America is not "the best country".[/rant]
There is a black man in the white house right now, so it is now in vogue to talk about killing the president...but you are right, any other president before it was considered un-american to suggest such a thing.
