Folks who are on the right are inherently selfish and self centered. They love seeing their opponents fail even if that means the nation as a whole is worse off.
The problem is they can not see that they are simply being used by the powerful in the R party as pawns. Avg Americans mean nothing to the Republican party.
The nation is not better of by rallying around those who seek to destroy the US Constitution (see Obama & Co.). The above poster would seem to be against the individual liberties granted by our Creator and affirmed in our Constitution.
It is less about opponents (i.e. Obama) failing and more about the US Constitution surviving and liberty thriving, IMO. Obviously, YMMV.

For religion, capitalism, and the military-industrial complex to thrive civil liberties are not necessary.
For those who slept prior to Obama's election, the Constitution has long since been little more than a nice ornament.
Not everyone believes in your 'creator'. That must be awful difficult to comprehend.
The 'creator' advocated killing of people and widespread destruction, not individual liberties. For example, the creator's laws do not guarantee free speech. Severe punishment awaits those who speak freely.

Just because you choose not to believe in a Creator does not negate the rights recognized in the founding of this country as being granted as such and not by government. In case the above poster missed it in his deep studies of US history our founders also believed these rights were consistant with natural law.
I think most Republicans view everything in their lives through the prism of RedTeam vs. BlueTeam. I don't think that they even notice that they are cheering bad news and actively hoping for the demise of America. As long as something is good for RedTeam, they don't care how it impacts anyone else.
I think they do. I see them cheering when the Chevy Volt struggled at first simply because Obama has received credit for saving the American Auto Industry (and deserves that credit).
I see them cheering when the unemployment rate goes up and the stock market goes down, even though that means that America is bleeding.
So do they hate Obama more than they love America? I think so.
I don't think so.
Personally, I'm kind of worried about some of Obama's policies and (apparent) goals. But I don't dislike him personally. In fact, there are some things about him that I think highly of.

I really love America. I'm so happy that I was born here and get to live here. I hope that we can return America to her former glory. It's the best darn place to live. (Yes, I have lived in another country.)
St. Hope and Change? Can't STAND him! All he has done is lie and destroy. He is ruining this country. Yes, yes, other politicians have done stupid crap too but he is RUINING this country. Do I hate him? Oh yes, I do.
Is my feeling of hatred towards him stronger than my love for America? It's pretty damn close. It doesn't mean that I will ever turn my back on this country, it does NOT mean I cheer when things are bad. I'm not cheering at all. I'm pissed off. What it means is that I want him OUT! GET! THE! HELL! OUT before he does any more damage.

What about the 'individual liberties granted by the creator'?
Is it okay that not everyone believe in a creator? Or should that be forced?
