I wish some so-called true conservatives would grow a brain and realize that the liebertarian “fiscal conservatism” applies mainly to cutting our defense budget, in line with their overall isolationism. If DeMint agrees with that, then he is one of them.
Don’t count on it. I’m a capital R Republican and small l libertarian, and if it were up to me I’d increase defense spending as much as absolutely possible. I’m a small l libertarian in that I don’t want government to micromanage the behavior of it’s citizens.
