Liberalism is another one. From Wikipedia
It's bizarre to see knee-jerk reactions to something if it is described as "a tennet of liberalism". They will rail against the values of the founding fathers who were, in this sense, liberals. Now I don't care too much arguments of founding principles, but to see these people, who claim the constitution is inspired by God, bash liberalism in the context of governing philosophies is infuriating.
