You don't ascribe to "Kill'em all, let God sort it out" like I do?

How is it that Libertarian "philosophy" is unique?
And, for me, number one? Is it somehow different from Libertarian "doctrine" or "standards" or "precepts"? Geez, I saw "Libertarian" three times in my results. So I like to use quote marks, deal with it. I also note that "neo-conservative" is'not on the list. Must be an old quiz.
My results-
#1\tLibertarian Philosophy
#2\tGreen Party
#3\tLiberal Philosophy
#4\tDemocratic Party
#5\tNeo - Libertarian Philosophy
#6\tLibertarian Party
#7\tPopulist Philosophy
#8\tConservative Philosophy
#9\tRepublican Party
#10\tReform Party

You can tell it's US-centric - nothing about healthcare
Matthew Greet
Choose Life. Choose a job. Choose a career. Choose a family. Choose a fucking big television, choose washing machines, cars, compact disc players and electrical tin openers. Choose good health, low cholesterol, and dental insurance. Choose fixed interest mortgage repayments. Choose a starter home. Choose your friends. Choose leisurewear and matching luggage. Choose DIY and wondering who the fuck you are on a Sunday morning. Choose sitting on that couch watching mind-numbing, spirit-crushing game shows, stuffing fucking junk food into your mouth. Choose rotting away at the end of it all, pishing your last in a miserable home, nothing more than an embarrassment to the selfish, fucked up brats you spawned to replace yourself. Choose your future. Choose life... But why would I want to do a thing like that? I chose not to choose life. I chose somethin' else. And the reasons? There are no reasons. Who needs reasons when you've got heroin?

I'm kind of suprised that Republican Party came out over Conservative Philosophy. I suspect that one or more don't really mean what I think they do. Or the writers of the test have unspoiled recollections of what conservative and the Republican party are.

Easy . . .
Republican Party: believes in loyalty to George Bush, belief that every word he speaks is truth and wisdom, and that anything he does is for the good of the country and for the good of the people. Believes democracy must be spread through American military intervention, that government should control all aspects of personal life and know all personal details of its citizens. Believes deficit spending will never damage the country, that the Constitution is an obsolete annoyance and that Christian fundamentalism is the law of the land.
Conservative Philosophy: fiscal restraint, fiscal responsibility, non-involvement in foreign wars, small federal government, government keeping out of people's personal lives and businesses. Believes the Constitution is the law of the land.
The difference between #8 and #9 is that there is no similarity whatever.

If that were *really* the difference...
...Than "Conservative philosophy" would be my #2 result, and Repbulican party would be about 14 out of 10.
I think you missed a bit about restraint of personal freedom, and strict adherence to a rigid set of social behavior strictures in the Conservative Philosophy, which caused them to be farther down on my list....
