Oh, one more before I turn in…
Yes, the term "libtard" is found in the Urban Dictionary, where -- not surprisingly in light of those who use it -- it's considered "vulgar".
This article is very useful:

It would be just as easy to rally usage for a companion word, "conservatard," but that won't happen.
Broad- and fair-minded ADULTS realize that ending a word with "tard" harkens back to the days of calling people with intellectual disabilities "retards."
So if you continue to use it, that just makes you one big – what's the word I'm looking for?
Oh, yes. "Jerk."
Oh!!!! HERE WE GO!!! I KNEW IT! It offends liberals to be referred to as a tardy! Maybe we should just shorten it. The liberals find tardy offensive, but the Conservatives don't. Wonder why? Perhaps because as I stated, Conservatives know they're on point.
