Is there enough evidence out there to make a legitimate case that American Conservatives and Libertarians hate liberalism so much, they have turned their collective backs on the liberal values that were undoubtedly the foundation, of the United States of America?
let us start by taking a look at a recent thread here @ USMB:
Here it is impossible to deny the right wing lunatic @ USMB who goes by the anon-nitwit-name The Professor argues the USA should be more like North Korean, Iran, Afghanistan, Saudi Arabia, China, Venezuela, Cuba...
