I consider myself not a conservative libertarian but a radical '60s libertarian.

Camille Paglia

I am not a libertarian, and I fight very strongly against libertarian influence within the Republican Party and the conservative movement.

Rick Santorum

I think Tierney is also more libertarian than he is conservative in the conventional sense.

Daniel Okrent

I am a Libertarian. I want to be known as a Libertarian and a Constitutionalist in the tradition of the early James Madison - father of the Constitution. Labels change and perhaps in the old tradition I would be considered one of the original Whigs. The new title I would wear today is that of Conservative, though in its original connotation the term Liberal fits me better than the original meaning of the word Conservative.

Ezra Taft Benson

The Road To Serfdom was written during WWII, and basically it's an anti-Nazi, anti-communist thing, but also it's an anti-Conservative and anti-Labor-party thing aimed at the British. He was an Austrian, writing in Britain. And I feel like now, I guess, everybody pays lip service to libertarian - and, indeed, many conservative - ideas, and yet they keep moving forward with an increasingly bureaucratic state. It shows itself in all sorts of little ways.

P. J. O'Rourke

Being a conservative also used to involve the concept of people being free to do whatever they want to do, as long as it doesn't hurt somebody else. Conservatives used to be very libertarian.

Bill Maher

I'm basically a libertarian, and I'm a conservative on economic matters, and I'm a social liberal.

David H. Koch

Well, I'm a libertarian conservative, so I believe in limited government/maximum individual freedom.

John Bolton

I do think Donald Trump has conservative instincts. I think he had anti-Obama instincts. I think he saw Obamacare, the Obama foreign policy, the Obama economic policies as harmful to America.

Matt Schlapp

Using a broad brushstroke, I think Libertarian - most of America are socially accepting and fiscally responsible. I'm in that category. I think, broadly speaking, that's a Libertarian. A Libertarian is going to be somebody who's really strong on civil liberties.

Gary Johnson

If you are a certain kind of white conservative, especially a white male conservative, then Roger Ailes was a hero. He constructed a world in which your core beliefs and your gut instincts were, and still are, constantly validated.

Joy Reid

I come to the table from a conservative or libertarian point of view, and I admit that. I'm a commentator. I'm not a journalist or anything else.

Glenn Beck

I'm not a knee-jerk conservative. I passionately believe in free markets and less government, but not to the point of being a libertarian.

Rupert Murdoch

I want people to know we throw real parties. We don't need more boring libertarian or conservative conferences.

Mike Cernovich

Republicans ought to propose conservative answers to the concerns that are uppermost on most voters’ minds. The libertarian-populist method seems to be to start with the solutions and then to imagine that voters have the relevant concerns. And while many of the proposed solutions have great potential appeal to conservative voters, few would do much to expand their ranks.

Ramesh Ponnuru

I'm always looking for an opportunity to bring progressive Democrats together with some conservative libertarian types, because there are places where we can agree.

Ron Paul
