Shouted down by who? If your answer is "by all Americans", then that's just not true. I'm not sure exactly what your views are, but I suspect that a hell of a lot of Americans would agree with you... so why say "f**k you" to those people?! Only 50% of Americans voted for Bush, you know.

Who is "it"? If you mean the American government, then why not just say so? Why lump all Americans together and accuse them all?
If you want anybody to respect your views, then you should refrain from stereotyping an entire nation of people, and direct your criticisms towards those who are actually responsible (e.g. Bush, or neo-conservatives in general?). But so far, you
are being anti-American. There's no question about it: saying "f**k you america", and clearly directing it towards all American people, is anti-American... racist, in fact.
