Do you bring out and make vocal those policies that you agree with?
If there is nothing that you agree with, you are anti-US.

Those that agree with the US on some of their policies are immediately labeled "pro-US" or "neocon" or something similar.
Just as no country... no government... no person has all positive ideas or policies, no country/government/person has all negative ideas or policies either.
If you blindly follow or blindly criticize, no matter what the subject, you deserve to be labeled.
