I think it is very important to make distinctions in this area. I have seen unbelievable numbers of otherwise sensible Freepers so caught up in hatred of these particular libertarians, meaning the extremist wackos and homosexual advocates, that they insist that libertarianism itself is an evil philosophy. But conservatism has always been libertarian, and rejecting such can only harm conservatism itself.

When can we expect to see the libertarians defend this forum and repel the wacko social leftist (anything goes)libertarians? considering this is a Conservative site..

I personally haven't seen any of these, but again since I have been accused so much on this thread of being a "home troll" I am dubious about how many such people there are. For all I know they simply say something which smacks of libertarian values and then get labeled as "wacko social leftists." I certainly was, and I am the polar opposite. At least one other person on this thread appeared to be so labeled as well, and that was also incorrect from what I saw. I think many people here are jumping at ghosts.

What I have seen a lot of though are posts in which conservatives focus solely on one issue and ignore solid core conservative values, i.e. libertarianism, and post wildly ridiculous tirades which border on totalitarian or statist rants. I feel the need to correct these people since they are no more "conservative" than are the Randian or anarcho-capitalist libertarians. But, I have never met any of the latter around here while the former are virtually ubiquitous.
