Why are the Dems called liberals and the GOP referred to as conservative?

The Republicans are more than happy to spend hundreds of

billions overseas on Quixotic adventures, which doesn't sound

at all conservative, while the Democrats want to keep the money

here in the good 'ole USA solving society's problems and

helping our own needy people (which sounds to me like a very

conservative approach).

Explain please....

    I can't speak for the liberals, but their are very few if any true conservatives in politics on either side these days.
