Why do Republicans hate America?

Apparently, Sarah Palin knows which parts of America are pro-America, and which parts of America are anti-America. In North Carolina, she said this:

"We believe that the best of America is in these small towns that we get to visit, and in these wonderful little pockets of what I call the real America, being here with all of you hard working very patriotic, um, very, um, pro-America areas of this great nation."

I'm really damn tired of Republicans holding themselves up as the only ones who "love America" and, in doing so, ironically insulting and dismissing 50% of the country.

I'm tired of being told that the part of America I live in doesn't count because I vote wrong and don't drive a pickup and don't think the earth is only 6000 years old.

I might add that North Carolina, and most of the other states Sarah Palin thinks make up the "real America," weren't very "pro-American" when they tried to secede at gunpoint in 1860. Glass houses, anyone?
