Why rebutt them? You'll just make up more shit and sling it.Liberals, REAL liberals, love this country.... all brought to you by the same group of people.
- The Constitution is outdated.
- The Constitution was written by rich, white slave rapists.
- America is a racist country.
- America is a greedy country.
- We stole land from the Indians.
- We stole land from Mexico.
- The National Anthem is racist.
- The Pledge of Allegiance is irrelevant.
- America's economy is unfair.
- America needs to be fundamentally changed.

Absolutely, and it's why I have said for a long time that American liberals, or regressives as you call them, hate their country.
Using yesterdays standards today, is just an excuse for their perpetual outrage.
Regressives, not so much.

Blood letting was a common medical procedure in the late 18th Century, there was no need for an FAA in the early 19th Century, Citizens of the Colonies defeated the greatest military force in the world in the late 18th Century and in the early 19th century our nation once again defeated England when we had no standing army.
There is nothing regressive in thinking that the old ways are outdated, and that a nation of 300 million + is different than the one which existed in the colonies while writing the Constitution of the US; a document which was amended by the Bill of Rights within a couple of years after it was voted for and promulgated as the law of the land.
It is the crazy right wing which is regressive, and the new iteration of the Republican Party which opposes affirmative action, voting rights, civil rights, gay and lesbian rights, climate change & the EPA, food safety and the FDA, voting and democracy itself. It has become a reactionary and an authoritarian party which opposes labor unions, equal opportunity and equal rights, and a President who seeks to oppress the First Amendment Right of NFL Players and coaches and the press including NBC, CNN, the NY Times, Wash. Post and even citizens who oppose his efforts at authoritarianism.
Let's see if someone can offer a rebuttal to all these ^^^ allegations, and not point fingers at anyone but Trump, Pence and their fellow travelers.
