25. You seem to be confusing "liberal" with "libertarian"
Libertarians are the ones who want to severely cut public services and lower taxes. Many of them are also against any sort of regulation on guns whatsoever. That combination would be far more compatible with a right wing mindset than a Liberal one, though they might also agree with Liberals on such things as legalized drugs, gay rights, and opposition to illegal unneccessary wars like the one Chimpy started..

All the same though, I'd rather deal with a right leaning Libertarian (Ron Paul of Texas, for example) than a neocon Republican any day, because at least they are clear about what they DO stand for and I know how to oppose that when neccessary.
