Strange how cons were against us breaking away from england and now claim to be the only patriots.
Strange how many (if not most) of the American Revolutionaries were classical liberals or those you would label "conservatives" these days, or are you attempting to argue that the American Revolutionaries adhered to a progressive philosophy?
If anything it's the big government progressives that are the modern day equivalent of the Tories since they are the ones that defend the power of the central government (the modern equivalent of the Monarchy) over the liberty of the individual and popular sovereignty at almost every turn.
Like I said pick up a history book and while you're at it try thinking outside the bounds of partisan propaganda.
