From what I recall, the American Libertarian party is Far Right-Wing. This means they are ultra-conservative culturally as well as politically. Anything you don't like about the Republican Party but you do like about the Democratic Party is going to be worse with the Libertarian Party. Think about it: they don't like government interference in the economy at all so they would probably sit back and let big businesses run the show. Hence their party's name. "Libertarian" is just an attractive label that is supposed to appeal to the average American who hates any kind of Authoritarianism. It doesn't make the party any more culturally Liberal. But it is good that you did further research.

Just remember: each political party (any political party for that matter) is going to strive toward making their ideals sound good to you and their counterparts' ideals sound bad to you. Its what they do to attract voters. Decide upon what you like first, then find out which political parties support it and which don't.
