Your post that you love so much was written by someone who says they are a libertarian, and they have very little in common with social conservatives which is the very litmus test that is the topic of this thread.
I suggest you read the topic again, and the early part of the thread. This post from Jim Robinson, for example:
Where did I ever say that social issues trump national security or that FR was a social conservative only site.FR is a conservative site. Were not just social conservative or just fiscal conservative. We are conservative period. I dont think you can be a half conservative and half liberal. Youre either a conservative or your not. If you are fiscally conservative, but socially liberal youre a liberal. If you are socially conservative but a fiscal liberal then you are a liberal. If you readily embrace and promote liberalism whether socially liberal or fiscally liberal, then you are a liberal. Giulianni is a liberal, socially and fiscally. Most likely, you are a liberal too. Giulianis support for taxpayer funded abortion and utter contempt for the constitution makes him a rotten to the core socialist.
FR is pro-God, pro-life, pro-liberty, pro-gun, pro-constitution, pro-private property, pro-individual rights, pro-national defense, pro-limited government, pro-limited spending, pro defense, pro sovereignty, pro-America, etc, etc. We are opposed to abortionism, feminism, socialism, big government, big spending, activist judges, run away government, corruption, authoritarianism, tyranny, totalitarianism, etc.
And we are totally opposed to liberals running for office from the Republican party.
I am a libertarian who has quite a lot in common with social conservatives “which is the very litmus test that is the topic of this thread,” as you put it.
