Most of them were classical liberals with a strong and uncompromising faith in the Christian God. Today you'd call them paleo-conservatives and christian fundamentalists. They were champions of property rights, anti-taxation, anti-democracy, political speech rights, isolationism while at the same time passed hundreds of state laws that punished immorality and social depravity. Or if you prefer they were largely landed middle class Burkean-style conservatives. Paleo-conservative and fundamentalist protestant in today's relative terms or paleo-fundies.

RIGHT ON THE MONEY!! Our Founding Fathers were not dope smoking pot heads who wanted freedom to do what was right in their own eyes.

Check your history. Washington, Franklin, Jefferson, Adams and most of the others were hardly "fundamentalist." They weren't anti-religion as many of the leaders of the French Revolution were but they weren't particularly religious either. Actually the only two Presidents of the 20th century that could be labeled Fundamentalist would be Woodrow Wilson and Jimmy Carter. In the 19th century, perhaps Rutherford P. Hayes but I can't think of any other.
