being libtard code for limiting political speech), the hell with him!
And as for parochialism
, that's a two-edged sword. But it probably keeps out more bad ideas than good. In any case, most of the good policy ideas coming from the rest of the world are just our ideas, forgotten by us, and adapted by foreigners.
Translation: “I don’t understand how Y’ALL love the Constitution so much.”
Shades of the the Vichy Chicks’ “what’s so great about being patriotic anyway”.
As several commentaries recently have pointed, the Left is trying to change the meaning of American Exceptionalism to mean that conservatives believe that America is singled out by God.
The truth is that American Exceptionalism means that America was an exceptional case in 1789 (see also the Great Experiment). It was the first time that a country was formed on the basis of a shared commitment to abide by laws of man based on a founding constitution.
Until then, all countries were either monarchies or conquests. The American revolution threw off the binds of a divine right ruler and replaced them with a self-ruling government of the people.
That was what made America exceptional at the time.
