Well, homeschoolers tend to be conservative Christians, but that isn't NESECARILY the case. As you point out, there are exceptions.
You can't say "I want a bigger government, but I'm still conservative." It's contradictory. You CAN say, however, "I'm pro-life, but I'm still liberal." Certain types of people are attracted to each viewpoint on an issue, and in the cases of abortion capital punishment, and size of government, those same divisions tend to apply, even though the issues aren't related. Just because a group of people tends to like two things doesn't mean that those two things are related.

I see you have a rather limited definition of "conservative" and "liberal". Fine, whatever.

Feh. I leave a topic for four days and it becomes this tepid?
I reject your labels. I am neither "Conservative" nor "Liberal." I am Firstist. No, no, that sounds too much like Fascist, and that's abhorrent. I am Twoish? No, too juvenile. I am... Vociferously Intellectually Independent.
Both ends of the political spectrum need a good pruning. Cut out the 10% on each edge of the scale, and you'll see that things will run a lot more smoothly.
And just so you know, I'm convinced most gun enthusiasts are only a bit right of center. It's these camo-wearing, "back to a white, Christian America" creeps that need to go. On the left, it's the spiking trees, spend 2 million dollars on a patch of wetlands the size of a pool table, play up race, help aid and assist the Chinese government types that need shuffled off this mortal coil.
Oh, and everybody who went to see "Deuce Bigalow, male gigolo."

Wow. Imagine the potential for pickup lines. "Hey, baby, the government wants to make my body illegal..."
