Wait, I Thought the Left Hated America?

One of the recurring right-wing talking points is that liberals hate America and think it is the cause of evil in the world. Heck, I've seen some (in the comment threads at Volokh, mostly) argue with a straight face that the left wants the war in Iraq to go badly (i.e., wants us to lose), either for political gain or just to make a point.

If so, a whole crop of the Christian right's superstars -Phyllis Schlafly, Paul Weyrich, Don Wildmon - didn't get the memo. They hosted several GOP presidential candidates (although none of the front runners) at a "Values Voter Debate" in Florida. They started things off with a gospel sing, of sorts (via TPM):

That's right - they've rewritten "God Bless America" (lyrics here) to actively question whether we, as a nation, are worthy of His/Her/It's blessings. Given that, you know, they actually believe that the big guy/gal in the sky is up there ready to smack us down for our sins (individually and collectively), that's quite an indictment. Indeed, it's as if they America is a source of evil in the world - don't they hate America, then?
