"Libertarians preferred George W. Bush over Al Gore by 72 to 20 percent, but Bush's margin dropped in 2004 to 59-38 over John Kerry."

We believe in small government and leaving most social issues to the states. It's a much more philospohically honest approach to conservatism than the social conservatism, who's followers want to use big government as a tool of social control almost as much as the libs do.

You must realize that a.)President Bush is not conservative, so his numbers are not indicitive of conservative views b.)There are a lot of idiots such as Bill Mahar who clkaim to be libertarian but are anything but and c.)President Reagan called libertarianism the "heart and soul of conservatism".

Exactly. They are not "conservative" in any meaningful sense. Moral and cultural relativists who do not reject their behavioral pathologies, but celebrate them and vote according to them, can never be considered conservatives.
