You are not alone. My family members joked about how crazy I was, until one of them started researching information on the internet and now they joke about how crazy WE are. Only they are all Democrats.

Liberal and conservative are NOT the same.
The main basic tenets of conservativism are a belief in small government, less government intrusion into your life, a strong military and pro-life.
For liberalism, it's a belief that the government should take care of its citizens (therefore requiring a larger, arguably more intrusive government), a smaller military and pro-choice.

I live in a house, full of people that are strictly of the Republican party, and I'm the only one that does NOT vote and does not take either party.
Every family member in this house that I am around call me a Liberal only because I believe that for example 9/11 was an Inside Job, Wars started to take control of resources, and believing that Credible, Eyewitnesses are being assassinated (Suicided).
... I wouldn't vote even if the Last vote happened to depend on me for someone to win.
Please, explain, SOMEONE! How does it make me Liberal, just because I believe in those things?
... I'm just waiting for something to happen ... .
How the hell do my beliefs make me a Liberal even though I find disgust in politics and would never take part in any party.
