That's one thing that really irks me about modern American politics, the symbiotic relationship between Libertarianism (particularly how manifest in the Neocon movement) and Conservativism. Conservatives look to the Libertarians for logical consistency (however myopic it may be), and the Libertarians look to the GOP for political hegemony. In the short run it works for them, but it accrues so much logical fallacy that it's painful. In the end it looks like they want a government who does nothing except defend the rich and tell everyone else not to do what they want.

Aren't civil liberties and rights essentially an extension of morals; isn't law basically the personification of them? Do you propose an immoral government with an immoral Law?
Morals don't necessarily need to be religion oriented.

That depends on how you define morals. In a JS Mill/Thomas Hobbes manner, civil morality boils down to protecting the individual from everyone else, as "Homo homini lupus est" (Hobbes' favorite quote from Plautus). Religion adds to morality, but as Christ said, His "Kingdom is not of this world". Abortion has been shown, for example, to incur a great deal of suffering upon a human being. To overlook that for net convenience is no more consistent than infanticide.
