If you are indeed a fiscal conservative and a social liberal, welcome to the club. You qualify as a libertarian.

I think you could call me a fiscal conservative and a social moderate. Maybe moderate is not the best word. Its not that I am in the middle on social issues as much as I would be conservative on some and liberal on others. My social ideas lean conservative but my willingness to have most of them imposed by government is almost non-existant (except on the abortion issue, I could explain my reasons but I think you might already understand them even if you disagree and I'm not sure I want to go through the abortion debate on this thread at this time). I do think the libertarian label applies but I'm conservative as well (strong defense, respect for tradition, pro-life). So if I had to pick one of the other 5 it would be "right-conservative", but really I'd like to grab both the conservative and libertarian labels.
