Social Democratic, Social Liberal, Feminist, Liberal, and Libertarian. Libertarian is just inside the cusp and Green is just outside, although I'd probably be more likely to vote for Jill Stein than Gary Johnson.

Conservative(Which is centrist in American Politics), which means I believe in smaller government in all aspects just not economic. I believe that "Goverment is not the solution to our problems, goverment is the problem".  I believe in the Foreign Policy Principe of Peace through Strength and Realpoltick which is different then the Current Neo Con principle of Peace through War(which has never brought peace).

Libertarian (duh), liberal (as in classical), and republican (but not the party).

I don't know an awful lot about libertarianism, but one could make the case that if a Libertarian chooses to follow the non-aggression principle, they might oppose abortion. Don't know how to frame the SSM stance though.

Exactly right re: abortion. Libertarianism is fundamentally about people's rights, and the right to life is just as important if not more than the right to liberty. That's why I oppose abortion, the death penalty, and the vast majority of wars. It's a shame most conservatives (for whatever reason) only look at one of those things. It's also a shame how conservatives have linked the issue to religion, thus vastly hurting support for the opposition to abortion by needlessly linking it to a church vs. state spectrum.

The SSM thing is odd, as well. I'd guess it has something to do with religious liberty/freedom of conscience--which is valid, but to take a right from one person in order to protect another from a tyrannical government is wrong, and in this case highly unnecessary. In any case where the government oversteps their bounds in the name of anti-discrimination, it's the fault of the government, NOT the people they're attempting to protect.

yeah the non-aggression principle is bullsh!t because they also believe in property rights, which must be maintained by a system of police aggression against non-property owners

Only if the non-property owners break the Non-Aggression Principle first. That's basically the crux of the principle itself, that aggression is wrong if it's not in response to other aggression.

Certainly you have some concept of property, right? I mean, if someone broke into your house and took your laptop, certainly you would have the right to take it back, or there would be an entity to get it back for you? Or do you have no personal items, and just have to go to a People's Computer Building and do things on a random computer?

Bottom line: you have to have individual property, and like it or not, there has to be a system of protecting that property. If I'm wrong, please enlighten me, TNF, I like learning new things.

The majority of my views would be compatible with Paleoconservatism, and most of the ones that wouldn't I think are for the states to decide.  I don't know if I can realistically call myself a Paleocon due to my stance on immigration.  While I don't support Amnesty my views on the issue are definitely to the left of the Constitution Party.

Centrist (may be - slight fiscal conservative) on economy, but social liberal. Like  very old school North-East Republicans, who (or, more often,  whose children) are either Democrats or Democratic-leaning Indies now. I am closer to last category...

Voted Conservative, Christian Democratic, and Republican.

I don't get too hung up on these sorts of labels but I think these three apply to me generally. I am at least "conservative" in some sense of the word.
