I will add that to call someone un American because their political views disagree with yours is first of all incorrect and second of all a cheap intimidation tactic. America is built upon freedoms. Freedom is in fact the cornerstone of America philosophy. Therefore, that which strives to remove this freedom is by definition un-American. The philosophy of the left has become "from each according to their ability, to each according to their needs." -Karl Marx All have the freedom to work, but not all do so equally. The money of those who work hard is forcefully taken to provide for those who don't. They preach tolerance for freedom of speech but do not exercise that same tolerance for other views. The 2nd Amendment guarantees the right to bear arms. The left is unabashed in trying to strip this freedom away. The left distorts the Constitutional inability of the government to set up a religion, and instead seeks to remove all religion from those who live in the state. These are but just a few points. By them I would say it is an accurate statement that those who subscribe to this new Left philosophy exhibit un-Americanism.
