You folks do understand that if it were not for liberal progressive thinkers, the US would not exist as it does now?
Consider the facts.
Thomas Jefferson, Benjamin Franklin, Thomas Payne, the entire group of men that we call our founding fathers were liberals!
Our entire government is based on liberal ideas at the time of the revolution.

Back then, they would have been defined as liberals. They would not be properly defined as liberals today; not by today's usage. In today's vernacular, they are likely best defined as libertarians.

Because today's libertarians are all about founding governments.

• A Conservative interpretation of the US Constitution
  
• Personal Responsibility
  
• Help for the truly needy
  
• Limited Government
  
• Consumption Tax (non-profit charities and food exempt)

So a group of nuns entitled being forced to pay into the Affordable Healthcare Act and pay for Abortions or a Catholic Chapel being forced to administer Same Sex marriages fall into that category as well?

I can understand pulling the 'non-discrimination' card when you're talking about a for profit business like a bakery, photographer, or outlet store... but wielding that same law like a sword to attack institutions which only vaguely fall into the definition as a 'for profit business'?
