In other words, for some Democrats, the only important fact is whether or not Bush proposed it.

This statement is probably fairly accurate, and reflects partisan politics, as usual.

You also wrote;

Nope.

Opposition to a politician's position or proposal is not an indicator of hate. However, to suggest that it is (an indicator of hate) might be considered a good example of extremist rhetoric.
