To a certain degree, SoCal, all true Conservatives are Libertarians. I'm a Conservative first and a Republican second, with very strong Libertarian leanings. I don't agree with everything the LP stands for, especially in foreign policy, immigration, and drug legalization, but it would not take much for me to dump the GOP and become a full-blown member of the LP if the GOP's march to the left does not stop.

I've resolved to wait and see how 2012 turns out, and if the GOP undermines Sarah Palin and tries to shove a RINO like Romney and Pawlenty down my throat, then I'm gone.

Conservatives believe in strong National defense and believe in fighting for what is right.

Libertrians are bunker mentality along with other views that are far left.

Voting for Liberaltarians is getting a Left wing bean counter.

Read the history of the 1930s especially in Europe.
They were counting beans and making nice while
evil people were building up to start a war and kill
millions of people.

Having lived in the real world for several decades
including working for Reagan in his campaign when he first ran for Gov., I don’t believe supporting any party other than the one who already has the majority over anyone to beat the Democrats.

Dough Hoffman as he said is a life long Republican.
The Conservative Party in NY are Republicans
For people to go off half cocked thinking this can work elsewhere is not in the real world

The difference in you two is amazing. VR can articulate an argument and remain respectful while in disagreement.

SCP on the other hand is a walking bag of insults incapable of intelligent discussion. Point in being is that he didn’t join this thread for any purpose than to be intentionally argumentative and disruptive. IOW a troll.
