I don't know exactly where and what BebeII was referring to because she often or always does not support her stances with facts and research.
With that said, if she somehow was referring to how the Puritans influenced America's religous and political landscape dating back to when the Pilgrims arrived, then maybe she was actually right for once? lol
"James A. Morone suggests that some opposing tendencies within Puritanism—its desire to create a just society and its moral fervor in bringing about that just society, which sometimes created paranoia and intolerance for other views—are at the root of America's current political landscape."
