As a recovering Libertarian, I'll agree with your detractors and say that you don't have the foggiest idea as to what Libertarianism is.
To call a Libertarian a socialist is like claiming that it is too sunny at midnight. Or why it is so dry under water. Completely incongruent concepts, all three.
The important tenant (to me) of Libertarianism is the sovereignty of self; this concept in itself is completely incompatible with socialism.
A Libertarian is a Republican who excuses himself from the social war. In other words, fiscal conservative, social liberal and / or agnostic.
Hope that clears it up a bit for you.
