As I've blogged before, for political labels to mean anything, they have to be used correctly. Just because the so-called mainstream media or Hollywood, has definitions of what it means to be a Liberal or Libertarian, or so-called Liberals and Libertarians, call themselves Liberals or Libertarians, doesn't automatically mean that they're Liberals or Libertarians. We have sexual, as well as other cultural closets in America and we have political closets as well. 

When I think of Liberal, I think of someone who believes: 

"Liberalism is a political and moral philosophy based on the rights of the individual, liberty, consent of the governed, political equality and equality before the law.[1][2][3] Liberals espouse various views depending on their understanding of these principles. However, they generally support private property, market economies, individual rights (including civil rights and human rights), liberal democracy, secularism, rule of law, economic and political freedom, freedom of speech, freedom of the press, freedom of assembly, and freedom of religion.[11] Liberalism is frequently cited as the dominant ideology of modern history."

When I think of Libertarian, I think of someone who believes: "Libertarianism (from French: libertaire, "libertarian"; from Latin: libertas, "freedom") is a political philosophy that upholds liberty as a core value.[1][2][3][4] Libertarians seek to maximize autonomy and political freedom, and minimize the state's encroachment on and violations of individual liberties; emphasizing the rule of law, pluralism, cosmopolitanism, cooperation, civil and political rights, bodily autonomy, freedom of association, free trade, freedom of expression, freedom of choice, freedom of movement, individualism, and voluntary association.[3][4][5] Libertarians are often skeptical of or opposed to authority, state power, warfare, militarism and nationalism, but some libertarians diverge on the scope of their opposition to existing economic and political systems. Various schools of Libertarian thought offer a range of views regarding the legitimate functions of state and private power, often calling for the restriction or dissolution of coercive social institutions. Different categorizations have been used to distinguish various forms of Libertarianism.[4][6][7] Scholars distinguish libertarian views on the nature of property and capital, usually along left–right or socialist–capitalist lines.[8] Libertarians of various schools were influenced by liberal ideas."

There's nothing liberal about: 

the so-called War On Drugs 

indefinite detention 

debt and deficits 

being anti-corporate 

anti-private business 

anti-wealth, anti-for profit 

anti-liberal democracy 

anti-straight, anti-man 

anti-Caucasian 

anti-Christian, 

anti anything else that so-called Libertarians like the Andrew Napolitano's of the world like to throw at Liberals and say this is what Liberals believe. Those are all far-left values, that if anything are illiberal values, not liberal values.
