who's he mean?
If he means to add insult to the injury of liberals, he is very confused: many of the injured are hardly liberal. Pepperdine University in Malibu is an arch-conservative stronghold, the lawschool of which is headed by Ken Starr. And San Diego and vicinity have been fairly reliably Republican-voting.

Another reason not to listen to TV or radio
So people can say things like this and keep their job. Whether people are conservative or liberal shouldn't be an issue to brand and automatically hate.

There is no evidence that San Diego "hates america". Where the heck did that even come from? What is there some war with San Diego now? What is wrong with that guy? He's basically creating some fake group of peopel who "hate america" and suddenly ascribing that to a region that lost its homes in a fire.
