I am not for gay marriage, nor any number of LP platform issues, yet identify strongly with the Republican Liberty Caucus (RLC).
Specifically, the RLC favors reduced government intrusion, lower taxes, elimination of federal agencies, less regulation, a strong national defense with fewer military bases abroad, and no foreign aid.

LOL, if that were just that, then you would just be a conservative.

BUT! You didn't mention that your second sentence is QUOTED from wikipedia, you also left out THE SENTENCE following it in wikipedia.

"In 2010, the Republican Liberty Caucus of Texas denounced the new state Republican Party platform that supported criminalization of sodomy and making same-sex marriage a felony."

Most legal definitions of "sodomy" were not limited to buggery, but included acts of oral stimulation that are often practiced between a man and woman (husband and wife). That was the stated reason for the removal of those laws.
