You want to talk history? OK...

This country and it's people are the most unbiased in the history of the world...

Were you or were you not implying that conservatives are ignorant about their own American history and because of such, are not qualified to comment on current events?

Were you or were you not implying that conservatives (like us)deserve the turmoil and grief from the terrorism that is occurring because of said history?

No..I am not in politics..I'm just sick of everyone being "right" in this country but the type of people who have worked and strove for freedom here for over 200+ years.

Yes..the same people who brought true liberalism to the world....the kind of people who tolerate people from all walks of life yet still allow religion to flourish.

...the same people who brought down Hitler and the KKK by their own hands. The same people who welcomed immigrants from many countries and from many religious beliefs and brought women more freedoms then the have ever known.

The same people who rescued many nations from tyranny...Conservative American Christians.

I'm sick of being told by intolerant biased people who discriminate against my family because of "history" that I'm not tolerant enough and deserve everything I get from any journalist with an agenda or mad man with a gun.

If you want to talk about history, let's talk about more recent history and the fact that the leftist agenda has gone too far in it's discrimination against the Christian right. They have played the hand of the European "Enlightenment" in an age when the enlightenment has proved to be just as discriminatory to freedoms then any other movement.

Lastly, I am sick of being told that I should not be proud of my country and my Christian Conservative heritage and that it is not worth fighting for because of our "history"...the same precious history of America that is currently being rewritten by the very immigrants that we so graciously welcomed and now dominate our elite establishment and the media.

Oh yes..my attitude is catching on. People are starting to shout it from the rooftops...

"America was founded by the original liberals!"

No matter how much the new "historians" try, they will never be able to erase that piece of history.

I would agree with much of what you say.

However, ""America was founded by the original liberals!""

I think you meant "radicals".

Which is where I fit into the spectrum.

I have my own reasons for being there, but oddly...it's been that way since I was in High School. I don't know if renegade=radical, but in my case BOTH are true.

Most people are LUCKY not to really know what the "mean streets" are like. I'm NOT asking anyone to "envy" me for having had the experiences I've had. I just don't claim to be toeing any "party" line or to fit neatly in the typical pigeon hole mentality many employ in order to make sense of what is actually quite chaotic more often than "calm".

"Timid men prefer the calm of despotism to the boisterous sea of liberty." –Thomas Jefferson

I have NEVER had the luxury of a calme or "timid" existence.
