I am a conservative/ libertarian.
For me the distinction is that I am a conservative without the traditional nanny state propensities.
I oppose gun control, drug control, and want to eliminate 90% of the government. Cut every department and agency that is not carrying out a Constitutionally enumerated power.
Life (at all stages) should be protected by the 14th Amendment, and marriage should be limited to one man and one woman through Constitutional Amendment. At a minimum states should not be required to recognize any other kind of “marriage”.
I would like to repeal the 16th and 17th Amendments, prohibition, and deregulate the energy industry.
Then amend the Constitution to impose term limits-one 6 year term (starting with the next president in 2013)- two four year terms in the Senate, and four two year terms in the House.
Also return commerce clause jurisprudence to what it was in 1900.
That would be a good start to restoring freedom and liberty.

That’s music to my ears but I’m in no way a Libertarian. The principals rooted in the Constitution are enough for me.
