Because republicans aren't conservatives, they're basically all neo-cons bar a handful.
What the fuck happened to the Tea Party? Are there really only 28 Tea Partiers in the House? Or... could it be that they're just full of shit? Anyway whether or not they're full blown card toting Teabaggers is irrelevant. I can guaranfuckingtee you that a large chuck of those 206 were voted in by people who identify as libertarian and campaigned on the idea of "reducing government."

Is anything but the title different between the two?
Yes. CISPA is worse from what I've read. All SOPA would do is basically make it easier to shut down websites suspected of intellectual property theft. CISPA would allow the federal government to force websites to share data with them if it suspected a "cyber threat," something more loosely defined than "terrorist." Federal government could get your web history, email, etc. if you suspects you of being a criminal. True story.
