Want to see our liberal friends distort our founding history even further? Ask them what the purpose of the Progressive Era was.In actuality most of the revolutionaries and founders were with money and land it would be somewhat natural that some would believe them to be conservative, and some were. The main point, however, with our revolution and eventual Constitution, was the use of liberal ideas, ideas from Locke and others. The founders and framers conducted a war and set up a new type of government based on liberal ideas.
Liberal ideas, as being ideas as found in scholarly books on political ideologies, not as many posters define liberal and conservative.
"....set up a new type of government based on liberal ideas."
Really?
Well, then, reggie....which, pray tell, of these is a "Liberal" idea?
The view of the Founders: individualism, free markets, and limited constitutional government.
.....exactly where, in that scheme, does ObamaCare fit?
Astounding how many of you Liberals are willing to fabricate in the face of clear and obvious facts.
Hilarity, no doubt, will ensue.
