The US is a Liberal Nation. If you aren't liberal then you are un-American. Now you know.
If you are anti-Federal Republic and anti-Constitution which is the vast majority of libs in both parties, then you are un-American.
Libs today are against and are totally opposite of classical liberal ideology.
Classical liberalism is a
political philosophy and
ideology belonging to
liberalism in which primary emphasis is placed on securing the freedom of the individual by limiting the power of the government.
Complete and utter BS!
That is just the feckless Libertarian attempt to hijack the definition of liberalism.
The Founding Fathers were no different to the liberals of today. They would LOL at Libertarians for being witless impractical fools who don't have a clue as to how to actually run a country.
Did they or did they not fight a war to get away from big overbearing government?
They fought a war to realize our independence, to acknowledge the creation of a new Nation, and to establish a Constitutional Republic where citizens are subject solely to the rule of law, not men – as men are incapable of ruling justly, having nothing to do with the 'size' of government, or whether government is subjectively perceived to be 'overbearing.'
Indeed, the Framing Generation made no mention as to the 'size' of government, or the ridiculous notion of government being 'too big.' They acknowledged and codified the right of the people to challenge government overreach by filing suit in Federal court, where measures found to be repugnant to the Constitution are invalidated, and those measures determined to comport with the Constitution just and proper; that some on the right incorrectly perceive necessary, proper, and Constitutional measures to be 'overbearing' is ridiculous and ignorant.
