Well, I've been called a Libertarian before. I would likely call myself one but for certain absolutely inane policies they cling to like open borders and laissez-faire foreign policy. Isolationism bought us a war with an enemy that we had wildly inadequate intelligence on (Japan, blaming the lack of intel on Isolationism, not the war). I think the LP would go far if they made a more world-involved foreign policy, cut back on the open borders crap-ola, and gave Harry Browne the boot.
Make those changes and I'd sign right up. Until then, I'm content to act like a Libertarian on most issues, call myself a conservative, and vote my conscience with no regard to party on election day.
As an aside, conservative and Libertarian are not mutually exclusive.
