Why a liberal? Conservatives also believe in government.
Actually, I think the idea is that conservatives are distrustful of government and are keen to limit its power and influence in their lives.
Conservatives want more government when it comes to the military, the drug war, opposing abortion, restricting civil liberties (everything the ACLU does), "tough on crime" laws, immigration, Israel...
Conservatives don't want that stuff, republicans do
There is supposed to be a difference between libertarians and conservatives.
unless the head honcho is wearing a jesus t-shirt. Sorry, I don't actually mean to be so snarky, I just hate democracy so much.
