The question posed was "What is a Liberal/Conservative?".  Which an be
read What is a Liberal-Conservative as opposed to the meaning "What is a
Liberal and what is a Conservative?".

So a liberal-conservative would be a hypocrite, because he/she/it would
be an oxymoron . This is what I interpreted at least.
