Why do conservatives act as though liberals hate America?
It seems as though that is a big point for them, that libs are anti-American and subversive to the nation. In my opinion, having different views of and plans for national growth and success are very American ideals. But it seems like if you don't support the U.S. in everything, conservatives will label you a commie or soft on terror or any other ridiculous notion.
Yes because one liberal group speaks for all liberals. I am liberal and am studying the Constitution and "like it" if that's the right phrase... At the same time things like the 2nd Amendment and other Amendments were written at a very different time in our history and are frequently cited as a defense for actions that aren't truly defendable like when we refuse to revise gun control laws even after hundreds of people have been gunned down in school environments...
The absolute refusal to even acknowledge the fact the Constitution isn't perfect or may need a facelift 250 years after its enactment is seen as un-American. Most of the people spouting this rubbish seem to be very uneducated about the true nature of their argument, and the ones who are educated enjoy spreading their ideas to the masses who will eat it up...
Hilarious when conservatives bring up undermining the BOR; who put in the PATRIOT Act and condoned the government's ability to monitor our correspondence? If you want to talk about the government overstepping its bounds, how about the conservative Supreme Court of 2000 handing the election to Bush even though the PEOPLE wanted Gore, not even allowing a recount of the votes. This after complaining for decades about the merits of "judicial restraint". What a goddamn joke.

The US Constitution is what makes the United States of America exist.
Many liberals are outspoken against it. They even publish articles titled "Liberals: Why we hate the constitution"

Anti-Constitution is Anti-America.

The way liberals are trying to dismantle the Constitution and undermine the Bill of Rights seems to speak all for itself, no?

Because you are, face it you don't like America, if you did you would not be making it into some spineless 3rd world banana-republic complete with some kind of hope and change casper-milquetoast dictator that has his hinch-men with their boots on our throats. You have successfully gone "mission accomplished" You wish to trade LIBERTY for a central-planned government dedicated to controlling every aspect of our pathetic lives. There is nothing about the Democrat party that cares a damn thing about the people of this country. Look at your top poster children...Pelosi, Reid, Obama, and Biden. 4 of the most sinister examples of socialistic cover your own buttocks, piles of fecal matter to be stacked over 5 foot. If that is the people you wish to be associated with, stop whining.
no one is heaping praise on foreign communist thugs other than trolls and you chose to lump them into the republican tent, yet you sing the praised of centralized government controlled by your sinister communist thugs....freaking priceless....your guys have no foreign policy and are suffering for it.

They have been brainwashed by the message controlling sound bite machine of the the right wing power group. Ask them why they think that and you will see a blank face, surprised at themselves that they never asked themselves the same question. Just accepted it like a baby being fed pablum.

Like a ripe apple with worms they hide behind the dnc instead of stating who they really are..

I hate to keep beating the same drum over and over, but the Conservative of today is not interested in history or introspection.
They project their lack of commitment and dislike of having to support their country's government - even to the extent of SHUTTING IT DOWN, regardless of the pain and loss it causes - onto their enemies, the Liberals.
They act as traitors act, then point the traitorous finger elsewhere.
This makes them intellectually and morally corrupt.
Taken to the extreme which is what is happening today, it makes them evil.
That fools never think they are fools, so these traitors never think that they are traitors to their country.
But they are, remember them siding with British Petroleum after the worst oil spill in US history and against President Obama for demanding a 20 billion dollar reparation fund.
Traitor, Torie, Benedict Arnold, these people do not wish to be Americans.
They should be obliged.

The right wing media tells them to. Owned by the rich and powerful, they build boogiemen to scare America's village idiots. When liberals make a valid point the right wing media rattles the "liberal" cage, or the abortion cage, or the gun nuts cage, or the union cage to draw attention away.

This is coming from the same party that is now heaping praises on The tyrant Vladimir Putin over their own country. It's the same party that repeatedly threatened to secede from the nation when they didnt get their way. The same party that shut down the government and destroyed our credit rating.
Republicans love talking points, but their actions prove that facts debunk their own failed talking points.
