Here we go again.
Ignoring the issue in general for fixating on accusations of "hate".
Could you imagine if this happened at your office?
Some co-worker routinely flubs up.
People in his division flub up, little to no penalty action is taken (even though it is promised)...
And then when people point out that person messing up, the best response that is mustered is "You just hate him..."

In the context of what knot_e_lady actually said, this response is pure strawman argument...
She never claimed he DID do the thing just because he COULD have done the thing.

"objectivity"?
Where is the "objectivity" in just parrotting "Bush hater" over and over again when people point out something Bush did wrong?
YOUR lack of objectivity was emphasized in the earlier thread on Bush and gay issues. I EXPLICITLY stated that I viewed Bush as *positive to neutral* on gay issues, and in later responses you turned around and accused me of "Bush hating".
I think it's a response you throw out there cause you've got no better response.
Furthermore addressing your statement, knot_e_lady WAS NOT saying that she would convict the guy based solely on her opinion.
She JUST GAVE her opinion.
O.J. Simpson was acquitted.
People still think he was guilty.
Oh My Gawd! Shouldn't we jump all over THEM as well because they have a contradictory thought to the conclusion of our justice system???
You're getting all bent out of shape for no good reason.
