Like I said, plenty of them are moderates. Moderates often have the false impression that both sides are equally bad/good and the solution is somewhere in the middle, as if two groups of *******s must be equally as wrong as they are right.

I mean as far as Republicans/Democrats are concerned both sides deserve to be shot in the head, but the right side deserve it a bit more.

You start to notice trends after a while and you're aligning pretty cleanly with closet conservative.

Okay, but I'm not a Republican. Simple as that. **** your trends.

As a libertarian I do align with some conservative values, sure. But I also conflict with many of their values as well. Same goes for liberalism.

You criticize liberals and this forum tends to assume anybody who criticizes liberals is a Republican.

As a libertarian I'm bound to align with some conservative values. But I also conflict with many of their values as well. Same goes for liberalism.

:wavey:

I've never met a libertarian who didn't turn out to be a Republican who didn't want to admit it. Kind of like alternative music--it's just music that's embarrassed to be played on the radio.

Except when I do it I guess unless there's something you're all not telling me.

But you're still implying I'm a closeted Republican, which is factually incorrect for reasons I've already given.

Because you disagree on gay marriage and smoking pot or whatever? Plenty of Republicans only align with 70% of the platform.

You start to notice trends after a while.

Because you criticize Republicans way more than liberals.
