I pointed that out, libertarians are liberals who lean right in some areas.

Unfortunately the areas they are liberal in make the conservative parts they claim to believe in impossible.

Right and left define one’s relation to the government. Somebody on the right wants less government in their life. Somebody on the left wants more government in their life.

A libertarian should be farther right than a conservative, because of how little government they want in their life. Now, I understand that some libertarians are only libertarian for themselves, but are completely liberal when it comes to the amount of government they want for other people. They are liars, in other words.

They want for thee what they don’t want for themselves.

They aren’t really libertarian, if that’s the case.
