Why don't you check out www.lp.org before jumping to such ridiculous conclusions--although I do think some publicly stress the legalization issue too much at the expense of other issues.

I took their test. The results are below.
You preferred the Democratic stance for 1 issue. Democratic Platform

You preferred the Green stance for 1 issue. Green Platform

You preferred the Libertarian stance for 5 issues. Libertarian Platform.

You preferred the Republican stance for 0 issues. Republican Platform.

I would vote Libertarian but I do live in a swing state so I don't believe I will.

That's not a very good reason to do so. If you vote libertarian, then you are giving them more support for the next election. For instance, it's much harder for an organization to raise funds that only gets 1% of the votes and fails vs an organization that gets 30% and fails.

"The Republican party has given up its true conservative roots..."

In a lot of ways that is true, ACPlayer.

Also, as someone said before:

The Republicans have become Democrats, and the Democrats have become Socialists.

More truth to that than one might think.

Agreed. I can't stand what the Democrats are doing now adays. They are about as unliberal (dictionary term) as you can get, and I don't agree with alot of what the republicans are doing either. The Libertarian party is looking better and better every time I look at it. I like how their stances of issues are based on lessons of history, no matter how counter intuitive it is. I would never of thought the stuff they are saying about foreign aid is true, but the more I read, the more I can't help but agree. It doesn't sound right, in fact it even sounds wrong, but it makes sense.
