Why do some cons continually confuse Bush and the Republican Party for America?

Question

We do not like Bush or Republican/conservative party politics. That does not mean liberals hate America. You cons have become delusional.

As soon as someone criticizes Bush, you bring out the treason card. Oh you hate America. You love the terrorists. You want America to fail, blah, blah, blah.
==================

To announce that there must be no criticism of the President, or that we are to stand by the President, right or wrong, is not only unpatriotic and servile, but is morally treasonable to the American public.
- Theodore Roosevelt

Patriotism means to stand by the country. It does NOT mean to stand by the President or any other public official save exactly to the degree in which he himself stands by the country. It is patriotic to support him insofar as he efficiently serves the country. It is unpatriotic not to oppose him to the exact extent that by inefficiency or otherwise he fails in his duty to stand by the country.
- Theodore Roosevelt

Answer 1

We don't need Bush or anyone else to bring out the treason card. You've pretty much taken care of that yourselves. You've got people like Rosie and Harry Ried to show america your true colors.

Answer 2

How is adopting a policy of defeat and publicly telling the enemy that the United States has lost the war helping America exactly?
