I have to keep reminding myself he is still liberal

He's libertarian, not liberal. There's a world of difference.

So true. I’m always surprised about how many can’t (won’t) distinguish the difference between an ideology that is about minimizing government and one that is about maximizing government. There are even those that wish to conjoin libertarian with socialist, which is just another attempt to redefine communism. American liberals are very illiberal and we would do very well with letting them know such every chance we get.
