It's what many companies have learned the hard way. A good reputation takes years, even decades to establish. That good reputation can change into a bad one over night.:

If a good opinion can turn into a bad one that quickly and easily, it is likely that the people of your
own nation should bear some of the responsibility for this.
You say that the hatred of the Bush administration is tranferred to the entire population of the United States. Hatred of 300 million people is a lot of hatred. I don't think there is any way to justify it.
