First of all, it is considered polite to ping a freeper when talking smack about him, as you should well know by now, and especially JR when you are picking bones. You are cruising for a good zotting.
Secondly, Libertarians had a rightful place at Reagan's table. It is unthinkable to define Conservatism without them. So if JR is kind enough to give them extra leeway it is probably out of respect in regard to their rightful chair.
It is more likely that Republicans hereabouts have grown so cold to the tenets of Conservatism that many of them now find those tenets offensive. If that is your case, perhaps another forum would be more to your liking.

But no thanks. Until Jim zots me and my moral views to kingdom come, I will continue to speak my mind.
And good luck on pinging the Big Guy. He won’t respond. Not on this issue.
As for Reagan? You are sadly mistaken on using Reagan as a role model for Libertariansim.
Try Goldwater. Whith his pro-abortion and pro-gay attitudes; Goldwater is your hero.
