... right?

It's funny... I tend to socialize pretty equally among both liberals and conservatives.  I'm a regular at both Drinking Right, and Drinking Liberally.  And no matter where I go, it seems like people from both sides are trying to convince me how they both have some sort of "libertarian creds".  I hear lines like "I respect the Constitution" or "I'm pretty libertarian" (which is similar to be "a little pregnant").  But very quickly, many of these conversations degrade into how they like liberty... but wait... not when it comes to... and then they name their favorite topic.

As I say time and time again, both the left and the right want the government to control things... they just differ regarding how the government would control you.
