Nothing closet about my being conservative, or my Republican voting pattern. I've become more libertarian over time (I used to be more straight Republican/conservative). Now I'm conservative/libertarian, but not Libertarian (meaning I'm not a member of, and haven't been a vote for the Libertarian party, although I might have voted that way if I thought it would do anything but help the Dems win) My biggest problem with "Tim's version of Libertarianism" is that it always seems to be aligned with the current Republican agenda. Not with Bush's spending, or McCain's "campaign finance reform", or Bush's signing of it. Those I'm in outright opposition to, and other cases I'm not really behind. As for Iraq, before it started there was the WMD concern. The fact that that concern was overblown might argue for the idea that we shouldn't have invaded, but that can't be undone, and we have to deal with the situation as it is. Also ending the rule of a brutal tyrant is hardly anti-libertarian.
