nobody said anything about that being the reason that people hate americans, it was just an issue that was brought up at some point during the conversation when it started to veer off topic. Anyone who claims to hate americans is ludicrous, hate the government of a country if you will, only ignorant, and completely irrational people would ever think it logical to lump millions of people under one set of ideals and values and as all being responsible for the actions of one leader. I think (or I would hope) that the vast majority of people with hostile feelings towards america are able to differentiate between the people and Bush, if not they'd probably fall into the severely mentally handicapped category.
