What this idiot fails to appreciate is although most Freepers hate liberalism they would not tolerate a system which exterminates opposing ideas and thoughts. The Christians here, especially, uphold the Republic as something instituted by Christian men to fullfill God’s purpose for the Nation of the USA. It is not the religious right (on the whole) who seek to undermine the constitution. It is those who seek to add to the constitution through the judiciary until it is unrecognisable from the original!

Man I have learnt a lot about the USA over the few years I have been reading here.

If you read to the end of the article at the link, you will find that this is exactly the conclusion the reviewer comes to. The reviewer, who is publishing a book about American evangelicals, does not think Hedges' opinions are accurate.
