This is "Philosophy"?

Libertarian 'philosophy', cadged from Althouse:

Liberty is the idea that our minds and bodies belong to ourselves.

Umnnnhhh....no.

Liberty, properly defined, is the freedom to do what is right.  The above statement is so reductionist that it begs to be called 'middle-school dorm discussion.'
