Conservatives/tea partiers and libertarians are very very different. Really the only thing they share in common is that they like capitalism.
Conservatives are pro-war. Libertarians are mostly anti-war.
Conservatives are pro-drug war. Libertarians don't care what you do with your body.
Conservatives don't care about right to privacy. Libertarians are against government wiretapping and spying etc.
Many conservatives want to limit expression and speech (many of them actively support obscenity laws). Libertarians don't care what you say or what you watch.
Conservatives are paranoid about illegal immigration. Libertarians see highly restrictive immigration laws as bad for a free market.
Libertarians are essentially pro-freedom in all aspects of life (including money) in so far as you don't intrude on other's freedoms. Libertarians are basically capitalist hippies (if that makes any sense).
Now I'm, not gonna get into the real reason why ron paul wants those things, for fear that you will think I am accusing you and every other libertarian of secretly being nazis and are only making fake oppurtunistic arguments that you will burn the second you get any form of power............
I beleive YOU "TEGH" are personally, anti-war, anti-drug war, care about right to privacy, support expression and speech, see highly restrictive immigration laws as bad, pro-freedom in all aspects of life, a capitalist hippie............ but ron paulists or american libertarians or the LibertAryan party (whatever you prefer) is NOT
It's somewhat of a joke, JUST SO YOU KNOW, amongst both far left, and far right circles, that you independents, moderates, or centrists (or whatever the fuck you dumb assholes are calling yourselves these days) actually support Ron Paul
