Utter nonsense! Reagan NEVER referred to himself, in any way, shape or form, as a 'libertarian'.
counterpunch, you really should try another tactic, besides lying, to get your points across.
“Now, I cant say that I will agree with all the things that the present group who call themselves Libertarians in the sense of a party say, because I think that like in any political movement there are shades, and there are libertarians who are almost over at the point of wanting no government at all or anarchy. I believe there are legitimate government functions.” —Ronald Reagan
