It is true and unfortunately common that many Americans who claim to be Libertarians are generally Republicans who don't want the label. It is also true that no true Libertarian would align themselves with the Republican party as it is today, or maybe as it has ever been. The two ideologies are dramatically different. Libertarians are closer to anarchists and republicans are closer to fascists.
